I'm not buying into Steve Smith is about to make something out of someone. 89 has been around a LONG time. He isn't the WR whisperer/mentor. Put this under the been here and heard that before pile.

problem solved! Steve Smith's mentorship has provided us with a long list of great Panther WRs. 1. Uh....

pretty much. Fitterer essentially has ensured a roster spot for him this year because of the contract. So let's say a Penny was better. You would have to be a LOT better to for the Panthers to eat the Sanders money.

I'm done. Frankly, the worst possible outcome is some tiny improvement that ultimately means nothing. Dude doesn't have the physical tools to be anything at this level. Nothing of note. It's pretty glaring. We need to move on from him after this season. Take it on the chin. We should be good at that at this point. Let Canales get a QB that does what he does in year 2. Then go find a QB to be our future.

Sanders got that never should of signed and then overpaid him style

I mean, healthy? I'd rather have him as part of the RB committee than Miles Sanders. But paychecks dictate roster spots. ideally, we go Chubba with a little Miles to start off the year transition to Chubba with a little Brooks then Brooks with a little Chubba down the stretch

I think Matt Rhule is on record about not really treating players right when he arrived into the NFL. Clip someone of him addressing what he learned and it was version of he basically wasn’t prioritizing that they were actual people or some poo. Which jives with post above. It’s must a nice way of saying he was a jerk/not players coach

Bryce wasn’t a good QB and was paired with a predictable O. scheme might be changing but Tampa was very predictable last year. Big plays downfield kept them alive.

2023 refresher?

Hard to get excited about the guy who brought you the worst run O in the NFL….talking about the run is where his mind is at.

We also could have just never gotten rid of John Fox.

Matt Rhule's lane = the American Athletic Conference

Matt Rhules seem of already forgotten... Colorado won 4 games last year. All of those were by a single score too. Well, accept for 1 of them....the mighty Big10's Rhule Cornhuskers. Colorado actually whipped 1 team by 3 scores.

yeah, other WRs seems to be a better fit given where the Panthers presently find themselves at QB. But XL IMO is the best fit for what Canales has overall been around in terms if NFL offenses. Question would be can Canales hang around long enough for that to matter.

only real difference, is XL has legit freak NFL physical tools to work with. Those 2 didn't.

Matt Rhule is such a clown. He basically gave a BIG10 runs college football speech and everyone knows it lol. The CFP era is dominated by the SEC. Everyone knows that. The math be mathing for the SEC. You might give Clemson a tiny shoutout for the success they had at one point. 2nd most successful team in the era.

Theilen was just force feed BS routes. It’s why he had TE numbers and not WR numbers. He wasn’t top 100 ypc or yac per catch. and again we saw what happened on 2010 when the O was a joke and non-threatening. 89 took issue with it. Theilen didn’t. Because Theilen shouldn’t be a starting WR getting that volume to begin with. Jimmy threw the same bullshit routes and couldn’t go downfield. He did it from a less pass friendly version than Frank’s O. Not that Franks O was pass friendly in the big picture

500 yards, 2 TDs is what a prime 89 would do… we saw it in 2010

Hard to judge from that camera angle. Could have been 8 penalties on that DB. Can’t tell. Looked grabby.

appears Bucs waived him last month after a domestic abuse allegation

He can lineup in camp and do what he is supposed to do on all the reps where some other WR that wasn't going to make the roster might not.

nannerpuss was a primitive stupid bot and even nannerpuss would have been like, nah, not posting this.

interesting. me? I could watch Bryce eat McDonald's and form an opinion about how he will operate on a 4th quarter drive week 4.

I mean, a lot of football guys do poorly in those fluff environments. Lot of recent NFL coaches have come off horrible in their I just got hired pressers.
