PGA Tour disrespect Dave Tepper and the Carolina Panthers
Barney replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
I quit following Person a long time ago when he started thinking I gave a poo about his political opinions. I also like how he projects that Tepper may have had something to do with the removal of the post without any facts. He got his feelings hurt by Tepper early on and cannot give an unbiased assessment any longer. Typical little "in touch with his feelings" writer who thinks their opinions are much more important than they are and that any of us care how they feel. -
XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates
Barney replied to Captain Morgan's topic in Carolina Panthers
Anyone that watched XL in college knows he had good hands and would regularly go up and come down with 50/50 balls. He got thrown in as a rookie and struggled along with dealing with a wrist injury. I am hopeful the injury was part of the problem and he can use his size, strength and speed to become a solid part of our rotation. -
Jadeveon Clowney upset about being released
Barney replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
Clowney was absolutely a beast prior to having microfracture surgery and then he was never the same player he once was. It has happened to many athletes, they just never get back to their level. -
S Fowler take on Young and echoes of Newton
Barney replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
I set let Bryce be Bryce. He does not need to carry on any Cam traditions, let him make his own and let his personality be what it is. I could give a rip about how he acts on the field or in the press conference. His confidence in the second half of the year has been great to watch as you could see it grow from game to game.- 36 replies

Giving up on a player after their first year is the kind of craziness you expect from fanatics. Plenty said Derek Brown was a bust after 3-4 games. Let's give him a chance. I was disappointed with the drops for sure, but not ready to write him off. He was sure handed in college and was great at going up and high pointing the ball. I will reserve judgement until after next season.

Read the boards and it should be pretty evident. If not I can't really help you.

Dude never dropped balls in college. He was aggressive and high pointed balls all the time. I think either something is still wrong with his wrist or he just needs to get his confidence. I don't think he was/is as raw as some people think. He is a rookie at the end of the day. Just like many rookies on this team that many here want to judge after a couple of games. I remember when many on this board were saying Derek Brown was a bust after a few games. I thought XL should have caught that pass yesterday and hopefully whatever is going on can be corrected.

Sometimes I feel like there are fans of other teams that post on here to make our fanbase look really stupid, but then I realize some of our fans just are. The kneejerk reactions about draft picks and then never admitting they are wrong when things work out.

Rivera did him in. We would be up late when the game was in hand and Rivera would run him over and over again. I remember telling my wife that he was going to end up injured and wondering what the hell was Rivera doing. Nobody's body can take that much of a beating and last. I can see him move into coaching one day. Very high football IQ.

When his footwork is on, he is money. Problem is like many when he is under pressure or duress he regresses back to his athleticism and the footwork goes to garbage. He also has a hard time with anything beyond his second read most of the time.

He should try for the part of the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland with that look.

Should have just let him keep getting the massages. Apparently they were working for him.

Would quarterbacks avoid Carolina Panthers in NFL Draft?
Barney replied to jayboogieman's topic in Carolina Panthers
The national narrative around this seems more like Tepper hate than anything else. If you go back and watch game film, Bryce is not seeing the field. Canales play design has receivers open, but Bryce is not seeing them, getting antsy and immediately looking for his check down. That combined with his lack of arm strength is making things extremely tough on him. His lack of height and not being able to see or throw above the line at times is also compounding things. I am not sure he will ever be any good, but what I see right now is that he is not ready to start. The narrative is look at how good Baker and Darnold are after they left, which is a freaking joke. Maybe just maybe they were not ready to start when they were thrown into those roles either. Jordan Love was not ready, but he was not forced into action either. He was able to sit learn and digest the game and when his time came he looks like he was ready. Was drafting Young #1 a mistake, I think probably so and that falls on Tepper and Fitt for sure. If we are bring honest Stroud is the exception when it comes to rookie performance. Very few rookies come out and play like he played his first year. -
Lol I love how people "know" Canales stood up to Tepper and how a whole other group "knows" that Tepper told Canales to bench Young. Maybe after two weeks worth of terrible play it was just a natural decision to bench the guy. Maybe we can go get Malik Willis as some of you thought he was the next great player full of "potential"
