There are a LOT of quality edge rushers set to be UFAs next season. As much as I want to spend a high draft pick on a pass rusher I also would prefer that the team sign and start a vet that's proven in the league. Not exactly a fan of "draft a rookie to save this part of the team" mentality that has taken hold the last few seasons. If the team can pick up a vet EDGE and draft a high ceiling prospect... yes pls!

holy poo Joe Burrow

Listen to that crowd on third down!!!!!!!!!!!!

RED RIFLE

LET'S FN GO CHUBA

Meanwhile... in Chicago... Reports are saying that DJ and Caleb have been arguing a lot on the sidelines. Maybe they'll want to send him back?

they taxed the poo out of him on that catch

He's the swing tackle. Canales mentioned wanting him to stick to one position, so it sounds like they're keeping him at tackle.

Look at how happy the team is for him! My heart

XL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uh oh

Way too early to be hopeful but not too early to be doubtful?

No doubt. Dude can spin it and is having a great season so far with the Hurricanes.

Back in January, Brugler said folks had a 5th round grade on him but could go a round or two higher due to upside I'm all for throwing a day 3 pick at one of the QBs in this class, especially Ward if he's somehow still there.

My favorite free agent acquisition this offseason by far! And he's got my favorite highlight of the season up until this point... ejecting Spillane out of the club: https://www.instagram.com/panthers/reel/DATke3hRdJn/?hl=en

Former Temple/Panther TE Colin Thompson now has his own media company and is joining the long list of athlete podcasts. They posted a clip about the Tepper drink throwing incident and JJ repeats what was heard early on: that the Jags fans were yelling up into the box while Marquis Haynes was down with a scary looking injury.

Eku Leota also released from the PS

Totally agree on both of those points. At the very least, they should have been more willing to sit him sooner seeing how much more competent Dalton looked. After the high school cafeteria drama we heard with last year's staff though I'm surprised that guys made it through the season without setting the locker room on fire.

I'd argue that there were a LOT more moments of the team around him being bad. I don't think there is any valid debate to that given the metrics we have seen regarding pressure, separation, etc. Common sense alone shows that the offensive-side of the roster has been upgraded (6th/7th string starting guards to top 5 + starting calibre, add Diontae + XL). Dalton went out there and lost against Seattle with the same bad team that Bryce was only able to limp to 2 wins with. This roster though? I can't take any talking head seriously that acts like it's the same offense that got marched out last year. That's just a lazy attempt by some of these sports media folks at getting outrage engagement.

It's crazy to me how folks can watch last season and blame it on Bryce but then watch the first two games from this season and NOT blame him. The difference in the OL and the weapons alone were massive upgrades. Going from a 6th string guard to a top 5 one? Upgrading the 7th string guard to a starting NFL guard? Huuuuuge. Plus this year's DJ has shown he can separate unlike last season's DJ. That's not even getting into coaching. Glad that the team finally sat him. QBs have been boned pretty bad development-wise by teams trying to drop a newbie into the most important position in football so that they can "use the money elsewhere" (which rarely seems to be spent correctly). Gotta win on the field, not the balance sheet. Letting Bryce sit and absorb from the sideline is not only better for him but the team as well. If the team gets eliminated from postseason contention they'll probably put Bryce in to see if the reset has helped at all. Still pulling for the kid! Sucks that he got beat up so bad last season and is clearly still rattled from it, but Clowney also overheard Bryce telling Dalton that whatever Andy needs he's going to be it for him. While his play has lost him favor, guys will notice and appreciate his professionalism (even if fans won't).

Was just there during the week! Had to fly out Thursday for a wedding party this weekend tho. Gratz on the winnings!!

Peevy's sack celebration is amazing lmfaoooooooooo
