Jesus... 4 deflections so far

I was gonna say... they had BETTER throw that flag for holding. I thought that they'd get whoever spun Chinn around tho

I'm going to do a Huddle move and blame that dropped snap on the player I don't care for instead of who was actually responsible God damn you Elflein

Ian Thomas' alleged blocking prowess on display there I held my breath on the snap. Thought DJ and Baker were gonna collide

Maybe? I thought Hunt stayed in to chip and caught him out of the spin. Thank goodness it didn't effect the outcome of the series

Hunt blew Burns tf up on that pass

Dammit Nick, I appreciate the fantasy points but I want a Panthers' dub more

Oh wow, the first wasted timeout of the game wasn't one of our's. IMPROVEMENTS!?

Damn, Brown got sonned on that run by Teller. Need a stop here on 3rd!!!

Awful start for the offense, and not a good look on the opening run for Cleveland. On a plus note, I started Chubb today

Super excited for the season to start. Even more excited for the rationalizations for rampant toxicity.

There are... other options...

Finally, some good content.

Alright fellow scouting hobbyists, let's hear em! Who do YOU have your eye on to start the college season? Are you focused on a particular group? Eyeing the QB class? Let's hear about some players to get excited about and watch on Saturdays.

With nearly a third of the snaps, Hoskins exceeded or was on track to exceed Nixon's. The facts are there: media folks liked him because he was a 2nd round prospect according to some that fell to us in the 5th. They're partial to that, the same way that a Pats beat writer is going to write favorably about them during joint practices. However, on the field? He disappeared. If folks are going to claim that he did his job and shouldn't have been cut, then show the supporting evidence. Stats are that, as is game film. Go pull up his snaps from last season and his preseason action. There's plenty of moments where he was cleared out by a single OL, or got no push while his teammates being doubled were collapsing the pocket.

The rationalization that you will hear is that he is signing off on the moves and/or is just a figurehead. The reality is that they're miserable and lashing out at any scapegoat that they can.

Did they give any insight into anything specific? I recall a big part of his slide during the draft had to do with his off-field habits, which I took to mean not taking care of his body and/or preparing properly.

Eagerly awaiting details on the deal on my end. If the pay is reasonable, then the move makes even more sense. If they're paying him what they paid Fox tho... ew.

I don't know what to tell you if you have already decided that the move doesn't make sense based on where he was selected and/or whatever you perceive the needs of the team to be. The stats and film tell the tale. A 5th round selection was outperformed by a 7th rounder and a UDFA.

You must not have watched as closely as you had intended. You don't need to understand gap assignments when that player is getting consistently washed out. Nixon didn't producE. In 82 snaps he compiled 0.5 sack and 9 combined tackles. Hoskins (in just 28 snaps) had 1 sack, 4 combined tackles, and 1 TFL. The stats and film show that Nixon wasn't producing. As a 5th round selection, he had to do more to earn his spot

Loved what I was seeing out of KJ Henry last night. He caused the opening interception and then blew up their first play on the second drive. Keeping an eye on him as somebody that we might be able to snag at some point on day 3. Seems to have the length that coaches like but even though he doesn't quite have the bend he does have incredibly active (and violent) hands.

Yea, at least this preseason they even had games up in the early evening (condensed and full).

I will gladly take contributions like this over the frail and entitled bitching some of the current Panthers fans exclusively engage in. Thanks for the write up and welcome aboard!

NFL+ gets the full and condensed games up pretty quickly now (used to take a day or two). Still waiting for coach's film to come back I've heard a few ppl say that they can access it but I haven't been able to yet (they usually take 2 - 3 days to load them going off of previous seasons)

It makes sense if you watched the games.
