Ian Thomas was taking 1st team reps over Dan Arnold but had a false start to go along with some sloppy play from the offense today. It definitely seems like he is getting a shot to show all of the work he has supposedly put in this off-season. Hopefully we see a very much improved version of Thomas this year.

Carolina Panthers are hosting former Minnesota Gophers LB Jonathan Celestin for a workout https://www.nfldraftdiamonds.com/2021/08/jonathan-celestin-8/ Not sure who this is or how real this report is.

I am in the process of converting a few people to the almighty religion of Pantherism

I'm sure we'll have the same type of reaction in here if Darnold has that type of a day. Was his first day at training camp. Remember SOME of these camps are designed to be tough on the QB's to make those mistakes early so they can work on fixing them before week 1.

Just thought I'd post this... in this thread... Sam likes his slots

I think Matt Rhule mentioned some of the guys we tried out as being guys we would go to if someone were to get injured in camp or during the regular season. Guessing they weren't out there today.

Just seeing the difference in DJ Moore's route running and seeing slight improvements to Darnold's game has me excited. And what I am hearing about Dan Arnold is making me drool everywhere since we had to deal with Ian "Big Threat" Thomas.

Fans should have a reason for excitement if you ask me. This is a year where no one really doesn't know what to expect. Last year we were expected to be bottom of the league. This year Analysts have us possibly making the wild-card. I can understand some having little to no excitement for Sam, this defense should have us excited on their own.

I'll give you the restrictions, but this isn't the first year it's been hot Just goes to show the difference from when Cam was here to Darnold. Darnold will have to earn that hype. Cam had that fan interaction and people just loved him. Sam just needs to focus on improving his game. But I wasn't there so I can't really say for sure. Just my opinion.

https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/lists/panthers-2021-training-camp-takeaways-from-first-practice/ 6 takeaways from camp (tweets) 1. CMC locked in early 2. Ramping up Slowly (first days limited contact, 1 on 1's & 7 on 7's) 3. Panthers are (mostly) healthy (a lot of those players in red shirts during OTA's were working today) 4. Drops, near picks signal rust on offense (Marshall with drops) 5. Brian Burns puts on more muscle 6. Matt Rhule seeking effort from Sam Darnold

DJ Moore's Footwork Darnold's footwork and ball placement Jaycee Horns footwork Love what I am seeing. These videos have me more hyped as I should be. Hope this hype increases as the pads start getting put on.

Another angle for 14 to 2
