  1. It can be, and is, deficiency on the part of all parties named. Ron is a great human being who is a talented-but-flawed coach that nets out to average. It is what it is.
  2. I mean, if some random anonymous college "decision-maker" possibly said it then it has to be true.
  3. Some things aren't complicated though. For example, watching Chinn as a rookie and then as a safety these past two years clearly shows what his strengths are. Comparing those strengths with what positions such as 3-4 LBs, as one example, are required to do (take on tackles on the edge, shed linemen head on/sift through trash in the middle) makes it pretty easy to see that such a role (LB) likely wouldn't be his forte. Chinn exceled in space as a 4-3 WLB/Joker/SS type role as players like TD did before him, with TD being a great 4-3 WLB/nickel sub-LB after he gained some weight. If this defense can use him that way then excellent.
  4. Which fits just fine with what I said, as none of it is untrue.
  5. I hate to say it but unless they're going to Joker/SS him, I agree. He operates best in space near the line and that ain't a 3-4 LB's role unless they're running a lot of under and he'll be the backside guy, but even then that's a lot of trash to wade through. He's still a valuable sub LB/Joker in nickel/dime, but that seems like a waste of talent to eliminate his utility a good portion of the time.
  6. I'd love to know for sure how much of these deals, and Gilmore too, was Fitt and how much was Rhule. We never will though.
  7. I see Lamar is a graduate of the Josh Norman School of Bag Pursuit.
  8. I'm confident there is no way Carolina does this deal in a way that they could actually come out worse in the draft unless there is some other factor involved as well.
  9. People who prefer one player over another or have their own concerns are not automatically 'haters'. That's just a stupid overused term, like saying that people supporting a Burns trade were 'hating', or that people who had concerns about Rhule/insert legitimately-concerning player or coach here were 'hating', ad nauseam. Before I myself get accused of 'hating', I really couldn't care less about college football and have total neutrality in the discussion. There are obvious items that are fair game to discuss though, like that smaller players in general may sometimes get injured more easily, that it's may be kind of weird when a guy doesn't do certain things at the combine/workouts, that Ohio State and many other big program QBs have historically tended to fail in the NFL, etc.
  10. Slower than pre-Achilles Dante, faster than Derek Brown.
  11. People will hear whatever they want to hear - there is no 'v' anywhere in what McCown said. I am a bit surprised, for the better however, that no one seems to care about Stroud saying he was going to take McCown's money. Seems like the type of thing that clickbait internet clowns would find a ludicrous way to be all over.
  12. Your words, not mine - request for one single play. Probably because it was just last season and without that TD the team loses, satisfying your request for "... hell even putting us in position to win a game". Again, your words, not mine, but I also gave two more, not only meeting but even exceeding what you requested.
  13. https://www.panthers.com/video/highlight-kyle-allen-delivers-clutch-fourth-down-throw-to-d-j-moore There's three.
  14. Minnesota QBs since 2018: Cousins, throwing for 153 TDs, 5th best in that time, throwing to him, Diggs, and Jefferson Carolina QBs since 2018: The Shell of Cam Newton x2, Kyle Allen, Teddy Bridgewater, Will Grier, PJ Walker, Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield, maybe others I'm forgetting: 91 TDs, 2nd worst in that time, throwing to Moore, Anderson, and endless JAGs Somewhat of a chicken/egg argument and Thielen is a different type of player than DJ, a type that Caroina has sorely needed in years past, so this doesn't really mean much when discussing DJ Moore. I think Thielen has some left in the tank, but expectations should be tempered accordingly.
