There's only two OL currently on NFL rosters over the age of 34. Trent Williams is the oldest at 36. The Trent Williams and Andrew Whitworths of the league are still very much the exception and not the rule. Basically if you're not potential HOF caliber you're probably not going to remain effective well into your 30s, you're just not going to have the luxury of being able to play through losing a step or two. Moton is good but he's not at that level. I'd bet on a pretty sharp fall off in the next 2-3 seasons.

Could. But anytime someone is on the wrong side of 30 I think Father Time has to be in the back of your mind. Sure, some guys remain effective well into their 30s but most don't.

This season is going nowhere. Put Icky at LT and let him keep developing. Put Christensen at C and see if we have the starting OL figured out for the mid-term. I would say long-term but Moton is already 30.

This is how bad it is as a Panthers fan. We're reduced to debating hypothetical wild animal fights rather than talk about the ass kicking we have coming on Sunday. LOL

I mean, if you die immediately but the animal you bit dies later I'd still say you lost.

They probably didn't do that. They were psychos but they generally tried to setup fairly even fights. If one animal was significantly bigger there would be multiple of the smaller. So you'd have say three panthers vs. a bear. Then boys were wild. LOL

You realize lions don't live in the jungle, right? LOL I'm telling you, the Romans actually did this crazy poo and the lions died. The bears almost always won despite the foe.

The Romans being the psychos that they were of course tested these theories out. Basically bears killed everything.

Pound for pound badass but it's gonna die against a bear, tiger, lion, etc.

They have weight classes in the fight game for a reason.

I don't know about y'all but I ain't fuging with no Vikings and Patriots and Cowboys are gonna have guns, that's no picnic either. And a mythical giant titan? Yeah, those are my top four for sure if we're fighting this thing out.

Exactly. The only time I put it on the player is if he seems to be mailing it in after getting paid. We paid Ian Thomas knowing who he was. He's the type of guy who should be bouncing around the league trying to make rosters and we paid him like the morons that we are. That's not his fault.

Honestly, the Browns are the only ones I think who are for sure and it's only because the Deshaun trade plus that contract was even worse than the Bruce trade - because of the contract.

Who is asking us to draft the current Heels QB? Don't worry, I'll wait.

Are we trying to see if we can break records for attendance futility?

This game just isn't good. The Cowboys are trash and the Texans seems like they're fuging around at practice and are gonna have to run the stadium stairs for it tomorrow.

Yeah, the Cowboys are gonna get fuging killed tonight. LOL

We're definitely playing much better recently. Not gonna act like we're good. We're definitely mediocre being carried by a stud RB but mediocre is a helluva improvement from getting absolutely blown out at home by JMU. LOL

I mean, we have a few fans trying to climb back on the Bryce wagon after we beat two other awful teams despite Bryce's third stringer level play. I sure hope Dave isn't among them.

We can't ignore the fact that it was touted that he played a key role in identifying the bandaid free agent additions we made over the off-season identifying lower cost veterans to plug into his system. Losing DB was a massive blow but the D has been atrocious.

Meanwhile, in Tallahassee...

Joe Burrow is putting up MVP numbers and Chase is the leading receiver in the NFL and yet the Bengals are 4-7. That's crazy. That's gonna be the hottest head coaching vacancy in the league this off-season. Zac Taylor ain't gonna survive this.

McPherson is just relieved it wasn't by a FG. LOL

The Bengals are just snake bit this year. Two missed FGs, a dropped pick six, a near miss on a deep ball to Chase, then miss a dozen tackles on a Chargers TD run. Seems like almost every loss this year has been something like that for them.

The Bengals' punter is a beast. Dude can get the air outta the thing
