  1. What is that but a conscious decision to have zero QB controversy? I can’t take that seriously
  2. Morgan drafted the kid knowing all of this lol. JK One of the guys people4 whined about (Wallace) on draft night, is looking pretty good from what I hear. His 4th rounder is a board favorite. Haven’t seen Brooks, Legette wouldn’t be the first lat 1st WR to need some time, his late CB seems to be doing okay. Jury is still out but maybe it isn’t Fitterer part two.
  3. Okay. I thought he got run down by DL. So I did not see any enticing speed. I saw him get pulled down by what looked like two fingers on a DLs hand. So, I don’t know what tool this is but he won’t be throwing a lot of balls with guys having a hand on him. And the ball security issues from not being very strong are there. I have said a ton that his velocity is suspect. That is most where the ability to chunk it a long way enters in here for me. It is not the 70 yard throw only, because that is a nice option to have as well, but it is the time defenders have to close and this is split second poo at that level. Is that not a valid concern? Then we talk oh he can’t work from the pocket... I fuging hate that concession, sorry. Hate to see it made. Hope that is wrong. (it ties in with the lack of above average foot speed, just more chances to be run down. I know plays will be made too, I just don’t like it much. And all those throwaways which I am not saying it is dumb to throw it away, on principle, just so many because he bailed at pressure maybe it will be better) Whatever with all of it, I have typed a lot of words trying to figure out how to work with his abilities rather than just flat out say he can’t but it’s just not ideal even if it improves.
  4. Well, we thought Dalton looked really good ha ha. I won’t trust the results either way. I know better than to get excited and I expect an overall project season. And didn’t care if they went or not, at this point. but I am definitely interested to see what they are putting out there. I can never tell much from those twitter low angle videos and just quit looking.
  5. Think expansion team. We did not have years of bad drafts to blame for starting from scratch. If Canales is good it will go a long way. We haven’t seen how Morgan’s draft plays out. We’re sitting here not knowing anything from the last two drafts.
  6. I know people want instant help, but they have had incredible QB stability there for longer than some people here have been alive. Kind of says something for the way they do it. And after watching recently, I far prefer: a late round pick, no pressure right away to play him. If he doesn’t look good and you never play him, lile oops bad pick, it hurts but does not destroy and you have a chance to make it up. If these guys are good starters eventually you may be taking a late 1st QB averaging every 5 years with a hit and a miss. IOW, you are not doing it every year. You need a good QB you can count on for a few years to make it work. So there’s that.
  7. Well yeah and it is akin to what was just said about Cam and Fields... If you have an MVP you aren’t picking way up there. Someone has to fall. I think that is the best route though. Take the replacement and do not put them out there. You might get a guy you don’t mind giving a second contract to out of it.
  8. Yeah I am there. I look away for 5 seconds, go to the ad box and say block them, they don’t. I haver an older Apple touchbar laptop and they have not closed the FF off to that, I can swipe that bitch to the end and hit ‘skip’. Sick of looking at the begging for money. I made the mistake of contributing small amounts to some people before and it is nothing but emails/texts/calls talking about some urgent deadline and I must hurry and send the moolah. The hard sell. I won’t won’t give any of them a single dollar again because of it. It’s a constant flood.
  9. I pledged Canales a benefit of the doubt this year and will start his test year two if he makes it lol. If it doesn’t work, we may see a different approach next year. I am like, what do we have to lose? I predicted 6 wins... is 5 or 4 going to make that much of a difference? In draft position yeah but otherwise I care all that much if it is 11 losses or 15 losses. I would be happy as a fan if they ramp up their game as the season progresses and are showing us something good by season’s end. I always say, if they can be good enough to spoil someone’s playoff hopes that is some good progress.
  10. That is true about Denver. I was cringing all was it two weeks or one, but I was cringing because our side was acting way over confident to me. I saw it coming. Talk afterwards... but when you win, no words needed.
  11. I agree on the likeability. I agree on Watson for plenty of reasons... that money was ridiculous too. BUT.... Let me ask you rhetorically, no answer needed: who is your most disappointing player that you complain about or dog or whatever? Do you hate the guy personally? Or do you maybe hate, instead, that he falls short of your expectations? His play on the field. Do we get to call you a hater for criticizing? If you wanted him replaced, it would be because you hate him personally? Y’all know better than that.
  12. I hear you on the winning. I understand that there are ways to scheme this and we probably both understand that if there is no field stretching going on, it will be very difficult to make anything work. I also see ‘not the worst’, breaking new ground etc. Those aren’t positives to me. Still, it is an easy question to answer, isn’t it? =The conclusion may be loaded, or not. Seems simple. Is this like those hearings where someone asks a direct question but cannot ever get a simple answer? It is a pretty direct question. My answer is: I don’t see a single physical trait that is above average by NFL standards. Which IMO when speculating about NFL success, you want to have something above average to hang your hat on. I guess it is still the processor, but he has to operate around historically advanced physical specimens. To not acknowledge the .. physics(?) of it seems to be at least a little intentionally unobservant. That’s all.
  13. Looked like his head was swimming. To me. They know he struggled and he seems to be getting special attention let’s hope they give him help in the games - I think he is gonna get speed rushed and lose the down more than we want.
  14. Totally is. Don’t care what college it is. There are minuscule numbers of guys who don’t struggle to step it up a level, at least some. Look at them physically in college and then after a season or two in the NFL, little bit of a difference.That’s what you’ll face in the NFL, it’s not just that DT or the CB or LB or RB or WR, it’s all 11 of them over there on Sundays.
  15. TV is your problem there. Turn the fuger off, it is trash anyway. The texts and calls are horrible I agree.
  16. I asked multiple times in here for someone to name one physical tool that is above NFL average and may as well have asked someone to show me the secret to the universe. There was nothing coming back. 2024 hopefully resolves this poo on way or the other.
  17. Fox chased those 2 pt conversions in SB 38. Had he not I think they needed the winning FG to tie. I seem to recall Pats made a 2 pt conversion but they wouldn’t have tried it if we had just stuck to the 6pts plus 1 pt standard. He did a great job getting us there, and that loss hurt bad.
  18. He ain’t making that up. It absolutely was bad if you disagreeed with Bryce as the pick prior to and OMG after was worse. Ridicule, lots of lowbrow behavior, don’t really give a poo if you disagree with that. It truly was the source of much resentment in the people that were the objects of ridicule for having a negative opinion about The Processor.
  19. If that really happened it isn’t a Bad sign. They still can’t really hit people though, can they? Like QB still playing touch football?
  20. Reading all of this I concluded he got the teardown right. Damn good at that. It’s that pesky doing something something to get better that he cannot grok to save his life. I am feeling like he has learned more of what not to do, but he hasn’t proven it yet.
  21. Jake to Proehl. Greatest Panther season to me. Ahead of 2015. 2015 team may have been better but that year was just freaking great.
