  1. As much as I would like a move to Rawlee to happen I agree. I live in Mebane in Alamance County. 80% of Alamance County is considered part of the Triad. 20% of Mebane is considered part of the Triangle. If you look at the most populated counties in NC it appears to me that the western part of the state has more population. You have to look at the upstate of SC and their proximity to Charlotte as well. When you go east of I-95 it is very rural. Greenville, Wilmington, Rocky Mount, and a few more. I do think Raleigh’s time will come for something big sports wise in due time. Fayetteville is only about an hour and a half to Raleigh, 70 miles or so. The counties around Wake are exploding, but Charlotte is still #1.
  2. Kyle Baileys had Tom Dunden (Hurricanes owner) as a guest about 2 minutes months ago. He is working on a baseball team but acknowledged it was an uphill battle. Unfortunately he is not as rich as Tepper. I wish he could put an ownership group together and buy the Panthers. He is a class act.
  3. We traded up to get D.J. Johnson. I know he was viewed as a project, but is often a healthy scratch. After the first pick we have not seen many positives from the recent draft picks.
  4. I was watching Flowers thinking the same thing.
  5. We need some consistent leadership from a coaching standpoint. Tremble is a decent blocker. He needs to get the recognition and needs to get most of the snaps at tight end. It took too long for Chubba Hubbard to be recognized as our best back. Was Reich holding them back? For anyone who says some of these plays were against a weak defense the passes to Chark could have been made against any defense.
  6. With the injuries this year he has had to make do with whatever warm bodies he had. No one could have done better, and the players haven’t quit on him.
  7. If Evero does not have head coaching opportunities elsewhere it is because people are not paying attention. I wish it was here.
  8. I don’t think most of us are “crowning Young.” Without a toe tapping catch by Chark (where has that been?) it would have been just another Sunday. Where was the separation Mingo got on his catch all game? Whoever the next coach is we have to have some playmakers around whoever the quarterback is. We can only hope the next GM and coach will have some leeway to determine if we have a franchise quarterback or not and move forward. It was nice to beat Atlanta.
  9. A lot of games are decided by “luck.” We had Atlanta beat last year and a referee called back a D.J. Moore touchdown because he took off his helmet, then we missed a game winning field goal. I think they Atlanta was lucky then. We may not win again this year, but I am going to enjoy this for a week.
  10. I did, and it was great execution by Cooper and Flacco. I did not see any rain and win, given that I still like the Panthers better.
  11. Exactly. Too much could go wrong to do anything but what they did. Less risk to do exactly what they did.
  12. Belichick will not happen. Relax on that one.
  13. There maybe something in the coaches contract that precludes them from commenting for a number of years, or until their contract runs out. By the time some of them speak on it it may be irrelevant.
  14. Belichick is 71. If he leave N.E. I would be surprised if he doesn’t call it a day.
  15. Not going to switch teams, no joy in jumping on someone else’s bandwagon. However, After devoting 3 hours each week to the Panthers since their first game I am going to take a break. May catch a movie on Sunday for a while.
  16. Very true. I was a Viking fan during the days when Minnesota was NFC champs. 4 Super Bowl appearances, no rings. They thought Herschel Walker was the missing piece and traded the farm.
  17. Exactly. Icky will probably be a decent guard. I doubt there will be a decent left tackle by the time we draft.
