New England is in a fantastic cap situation. Just like the Raiders. That's why it's just Clev for me.

I could entertain an argument for Clev and the Raiders. But in the end, Tepper's overall resume as an owner and being the worst in all of pro sports is always going to tilt the scale in the end. Actually, Clev is pretty close.

I think if this convo is held anywhere else in the world by reasonable football fans.....Carolina is generally going to rank at 32 and the worst.

CMC had 1000+ yards as a rookie. I wouldn't say he struggled. He just quickly become significantly better in the following years. Specifically between the tackles when he added muscle.

rizz=charisma. generally used when talking about dealing w/ the opposite sex.

McD is basically Ron Rivera, but less liked in the locker room. McD just has a better a GM to go with his Cam.

I think Dan is a leftover of an old problem. I think Canales in theory could be good if he just embraced being a rah rah HC. I don’t like a Canales run O. I don’t think he is a good playcaller and manager of an O.

Rich people with influence can be very problematic people. It’s also reason #244 why you really don’t want to mess with the Sheduer gamble. Because you got to deal with his family/father.

Heck, if the Panthers were smart….they would just steal Cam essentially and morph him into their social media/marketing. Cam actually had a good idea. What Panther fan wouldn’t like the Luke and Cam pod episode. Or Gregg. Current players. Some silly stuff too.

I mean, now that you mention it….it is sort of is weird you invite Luke, TD, 89, Stew, etc to Germany…..and not Cam. and Cam probably would have been the biggest salesman of the bunch

I think Cam Newton received unique bias from the moment he declared for the NFL draft. He just happened to play for us.

if we are being honest, Bryce Young has never reached rookie Kyle Allen level yet.

Bryce said what he said. PR folks need to do a lot better then. It was a lot of detail about intentionally having nothing to do with football for the offseason. Not a week or two off. That falls on them if it wasn't true.

Bryce wasn't misinterpreted. You could argue he/they didn't paint an accurate picture.

I think Deion gets a new "calling" after this year. His entire coaching career has been coaching his sons. Reality TV with his sons. You remove them from the equation, I just don't see him staying in coaching. I think he leans back into media/online stuff (which again, will have the family in mind).

I don't think Canales has the real say. I think Bryce's benching after week 2 was Tepper (100%). The only way to explain such a hard 180 after the Monday meeting from Sunday. I think what to do going forward is Tepper......and that's why Canales forever struggles with basic questions.

for the most part, QB play in the NFL is a between the ears thing. Pending you meet a certain level of physical check marks.

football is a team sport. winning comes down to the team. evaluating an O or D? You can do that in losing efforts. I'd rather have an O that can do what Atl can do vs what the Panthers can do. The Steelers ran the ball all over the Giants the week right before we did. Which made it easy for Wilson to attack them downfield. I mean, if there ever was a game to work on improving and growing Bryce.....games like the Giants game setup for it. That's a QB dream setup. A D that can't handle a run. Makes opening up the O easy. But we are just focused on trying to win in spite of him.

robbed. Refs seemed to be on a mission during the course of all 3 games.

aren’t we the 32nd run D?

we are 28th in yards and 28th in points. this is not what fun football looks like.

well, Bryce not losing games for us and not asked to be a big part of the O.....is how we should be trying to win. so it depends what convo you want to have. How the Panthers should try to win games without a starting caliber QB or do you want to have a Bryce Young convo. To me, that are different convo and you talk about the game much differently. If Bryce/Canales were both average at their jobs.....well, Bryce has a much better stat line in a game like that. I mean, go look what NFL QBs in the top 5-15 do when the run game is really working well. You generally end up w/ a strong offensive day. Which we didn't have.

I don't think they needed to abandon the run. We essentially have to try to win in spite of our QB. Who isn't a NFL starting QB. I don't think this game represents Bryce being good or showing growth. We played a bad team, minimized him and it worked out. That's basically our shot at winning games.

well, it's not like we witnesses some freakshow rushing outing though like we have in our history. We had a total of 306 total yards. You really need to get a lot more from the pass game off a rushing day like that.

I thought coming in, Caleb didn't have it between the ears to be a NFL QB. Spoiled confidence is what I call it
