  1. Agreed. My concern is 100% David Tepper. I'm just not seeing any signs of competency from him as an NFL owner.
  2. Agreed. I don't follow soccer either. Soccer is an absurd sport IMO. Athletically we're pathetic compared to much of the animal kingdom with our upright stature to free our hands and our opposable thumbs allowing us to grasp things being some of our very few advantages. Hey, let's make a sport that virtually eliminates those advantages!
  3. It wouldn't be that hard for me to go back to being a general NFL fan. That's what I was prior to the Panthers drafting Peppers. I had favorite players more so than favorite teams and basically watched whatever the most intriguing matchup was on at the time. I had a casual interest in the Panthers as the local team but definitely wasn't a Panthers fan per se. That's likely the direction I'm trending again under Tepper. What's more enjoyable, tuning in to watch guys like Mahomes, Allen, Herbert, Aaron Donald, etc. or tuning in to watch Matt Rhule make an ass of himself? I mean, it's a pretty easy answer if you're being honest.
  4. If they counted turnovers in a hockey game the number would be in the hundreds. Hell, much of the game is played with the concept of possession being fluid and vague at best. In terms of turnovers per possession, basketball is much more in line with football than it is hockey.
  5. I respect hockey and the skills involved I just can't get into it. I'm far too rooted in football and basketball. Hockey just looks like a sloppy turnover fest to my eye. I'm just far too rooted in sports with a much more obvious concept of possession.
  6. We're going to waste a lot more than another year. These clowns are going to gut our future draft capital and quite possibly our cap space in an embarrassingly desperate futile attempt to win now. The resulting carcass of an organization will be highly unappealing to qualified in demand candidates because of the massive uphill battle and lack of roster building capital to fix it. Welcome to Tepper and Rhule's clown show. My advice to everyone? Start identifying a "second favorite team" to start following or just largely transition to being a general NFL fan and watch whatever games are most intriguing. I did the latter down the stretch last season. I'll probably do both this coming season. I'm basically weaning myself off of the Panthers until I see any sign of intelligence and competency from Tepper.
  7. Zion Johnson has been my favorite 2nd round target for awhile now. If only we had a 2nd round pick. But hey, at least we have THE Sam Darnold. It's gonna hurt watching those picks come up and looking at the intriguing names at positions of dire need still on the board.
  8. Hopefully he's impatient enough to throw in the towel and sell the team.
  9. What is becoming abundantly clear is that Tepper might very well be an insurmountable problem.
  10. I don't think there's any planning whatsoever other than desperately seeking to get lucky while overspending for veteran QBs the rest of the league is moving on from.
  11. I'm done hoping for Tepper's poo show. I'm just hoping at this point that Howell finds a nice landing spot in the draft. Tepper took a mediocre franchise that occasionally flirted with greatness and turned it into the joke of the league with stunning efficiency. This poo is over folks.
  12. I've always lived in rural areas so Starlink would be by far the fastest home internet I've had access to.
  13. Oh my god. Kirk Cousins is just Teddy Bridgewater maximizing his abilities. Good enough to compete for playoff berths, not good enough to get you anywhere on the playoffs. Hard pass.
  14. They've had my $100 deposit for nearly a year now. It was supposed to be available in my area by late summer/early fall of last year then got bumped to spring of this year.
  15. If he'd take a $5M check to go away that check would've already been written and this whole thing swept under the rug.
  16. Nonsense. Every team needs a good developmental long snapper. Don't get suckered into the conspiracy that we need to invest in QB and OL. We're reinventing the game here in Carolina! Long snapper. That's the secret.
  17. I'm resigning Burns and letting Reddick walk and taking that comp pick. How about a third option? Transition to a legit 3-4 scheme and keep both.
  18. Jones is like run of the mill immobile. Strong is like Byron Leftwich getting carried by his OL to the next LOS at Marshall immobile.
  19. It's pretty clear the fans who only remember a washed up old version of Big Ben.
  20. If this was 1986 I might agree. Strong is basically a really poor man's Drew Bledsoe. I think a statue like that gets smashed in today's NFL.
  21. If we draft a rookie it'll be that fraud Pickett. Take that to the bank.
  22. Watching the actual talent get plucked from this organization has become a near annual ritual. Amazing the talent we've had here and let walk to retain fuging bums.
  23. The folks who sling poo are generally poo posters.
