Chargers just played a perfect game the only way they could have overcome the brilliance of Patrick Mahomes

The Chargers just played a perfect 1st half of football...and it might still not be enough. Pat Mohomes is single handedly keeping the Chiefs in this game

Sam Roberts ATLDefensive Tackle#74 Falcons sign DT Sam Roberts, formerly of the Panthers, to a contract. Roberts entered the NFL as a Patriots sixth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. He spent two seasons there, totaling four tackles, seven quarterback pressures and one sack. He spent last season with the Panthers and recorded one assisted tackle. The Falcons focused on bolstering the pass rush this offseason, so adding more depth there makes sense. One of our DT was poached from the PS

Keep in mind that Keli'i Kekuewa is on the Jaguars coaching staff now. This man was the assistant o-line coach for us last year. He's going to know the strengths and weakness of our o-linemen.

Damarri Mathis CARCornerback#28 Panthers CB Damarri Mathis (knee) tore his ACL and will miss the 2025 season. Mathis had been claimed off waivers by the Panthers at last cuts, but unfortunately tore his ACL on his first day of practice with his new club. He’ll enter free agency this offseason and should compete for a roster spot somewhere as long as this is a relatively clean ACL tear. He was a depth piece for the Panthers so his loss shouldn’t change much about their cornerback rotation.

Looks delicious. I’d love some of that in my mouth

Bank of America Stadium—in collaboration with Legette and Levy Restaurants—has introduced "The Masked Bandit," a special menu item for the team's 2025 home games. The brand-new sandwich consists of slow-smoked brisket, Carolina coleslaw, melted cheddar cheese and BBQ sauce—all served on a "raccoon" bread roll

Hunter Renfrow CARWide Receiver Panthers WR Hunter Renfrow is listed as a starting wide receiver on the team’s unofficial Week 1 depth chart. Renfrow was cut and re-signed to the Panthers’ active roster after Jalen Coker was placed on injured reserve. The 29-year-old is the only player listed in a slot wide receiver role on the team’s depth chart. Coker was expected to play the slot frequently this season, but now that he is sidelined, it looks like Renfrow will be in the slot role. He will still trail Tetairoa McMillan and Xavier Legette in the pecking order but could earn his way do fantasy viability early on in the season.

The #Panthers inquired about trading for Micah Parsons, but they didn’t want to move Pro-Bowl DT Derrick Brown as a result, according to @JFowlerESPN https://x.com/thomaswrrld/status/1962897285408268735?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

Damn Lee Corso is in rough shape, I'm sure he has no idea what the fug is going on

The Panthers were very fortunate Renfrow was available and agreed to come back. He's the perfect slot replacement for Coker. I think Renfrow will step in seamlessly into the Adam Thielen "safety blanket" role for Bryce Young. This Jalen Coker injury will turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

Hunter Renfrow CARWide Receiver#13 Panthers signed WR Hunter Renfrow. Renfrow is back with the Panthers mere days after being cut, according to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Panthers can better use Renfrow’s services now after they traded Adam Thielen to the Vikings and Jalen Coker (quad) went down with an injury. Renfrow could see a good amount of work from the slot in at least the first four games of the season as that’s where the team planned on using Coker. Can a Hunter Renfrow PPR scam work in 2025? I guess we’re going to find out.

100%

Adam Thielen actually requested the trade on the @KyleBaileyClub show, Dan Morgan mentions #Panthers didn’t want to move him but also they didn’t want to stand in his way. Thielen told him, "this is what I want, this is where I want to go" https://x.com/justblande/status/1961410856308125853?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

Fuzzy Baffy

Shocking

This is pretty brutal for Bryce Young. Thielen was the one receiver he had actual chemistry with and trust in. Getting into empty looks and giving Thielen two-way goes was how the Panthers sparked Bryce's turnaround https://x.com/ollieconnolly/status/1960706467457057064?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

Vikings bring back WR Thielen from Panthers Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen, conditional 2026 seventh-round pick, 2027 fifth-round pick Panthers get: 2026 fifth-round pick, 2027 fourth-round pick Vikings grade: A- Panthers grade: C+ The Vikings have re-united with their longtime receiver Adam Thielen. Assuming the conditions of the 2026 pick headed to Minnesota are met, the Vikings will have moved back two rounds in next year's draft and one round in 2027's draft to acquire the single year remaining on the 35-year-old receiver's contract. This is fine business. The Vikings' receiver depth will be tested early this season, as WR3 speedster Jalen Nailor recovers from a hand injury and WR2 Jordan Addison serves a three-game suspension. Depth receiver Rondale Moore had a season-ending knee injury early this offseason, leaving rookie Tai Felton and veteran Tim Jones as the depth behind Justin Jefferson to start the season. Thielen should slot right into a familiar offense and provide a good safety blanket for young quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who needs strong early performances in September to boost his confidence and generate some positive momentum. I like the deal a lot for that reason: McCarthy won't spend the first three starts of his NFL career endeavoring to make up for bad receiver play. This is actually a bigger risk for the Panthers than it appears. From Week 8 on last season -- the stretch in which quarterback Bryce Young came back and looked solid -- Thielen was the Panthers' best receiver. Sure, guys like Jalen Coker and Ja'Tavion Sanders were having breakout games, and the backs were getting involved as pass catchers, but it was Thielen who drove the ship. Thielen averaged 2.47 yards per route run in that stretch, which was the 14th best number in the NFL. He also caught 80% of his targets when Coker and Xavier Legette caught 63.2% and 56.4%, respectively. Thielen was so valuable that the Panthers gave him a raise in March worth $1.5 million to encourage him to stave off retirement. The drafting of first-round receiver Tetairoa McMillan always foretold a decrease in target share for Thielen. But keeping Thielen around for another year would have helped smooth the transition. Now the Panthers enter the season with a starting receiver trio (McMillan, Coker and Legette) full of big-play potential but no proven chemistry with Young over the middle of the field. That's an important cornerstone of the Panthers' offensive system that needs replacing. -- Solak
