So he should state it.

@Wolfcop poo all you want but to still be clinging to the belief that Bryce was still the right guy to pick is just absolute delusion.

Even if he is still super committed to Bryce the potential ROI on a late round QB that hits should be an easy sell to Tepper. Even if Bryce pans out if the late round QB shows promise you have a solid backup for minimal investment or you flip him for significantly more in trade value than what you spent to acquire him.

Seriously, someone explain to me how in the fug Andre Johnson gets in the HOF ahead of Agent 89.

Johnson was a helluva WR. Don't get me wrong. But his and Smitty's receiving numbers are very similar and Smitty has return stats that Johnson lacks. Smitty has a nearly 5000 yard advantage in all purpose yardage. Smitty should've gotten in ahead of Johnson, period.

I don't think so. We just drafted the wrong guy.

Intriguing day three QB prospects should always be on the radar. Those picks are shots in the dark already. If you land a roster caliber player at by far the most important position in the game on day three that's a huge win.

I hope he fixes it but as of right now the statement ain't wrong.

Bryce was robbed!

Luke will definitely be in. Probably first ballot. Smitty absolutely SHOULD be in but crazy WR numbers in the modern NFL is gonna be a hurdle for him to overcome. They SHOULD consider the offenses these guys played in and the percentage of the receiving yardage they accounted for, etc. but they pretty much just look at the top level numbers. The more time that passes the more mediocre his numbers will get in terms of the HOF. I mean, Lynn Swann is a HOF WR and DJ Moore has already comfortably passed his career numbers and DJ is 26 years old.

It's always interesting watching institutions fail. Cable TV is very on obviously going the way of the dodo but that doesn't mean it's not gonna go away without a fight to squeeze every last dime they can out of the institution's dying gasps.

I do think most NFL fans primarily associate him with the Panthers being that he was drafted here, went to the SB here, and ultimately finished his career here. But with that said, the Bears and the Packers have a lot more national relevance than the Panthers so I wouldn't be shocked if there's quite a few people who envision Peppers in one of those jerseys when they first think of him. Hell, even after all these years when I hear Julius Peppers' name I think UNC after all, the drafting of Julius Peppers is what ultimately made me a Panthers fan to begin with.

Players don't go into the HOF associated with a particular team. It's an individual honor and they go in as individuals.

Some people learn from their past mistakes. Hopefully Tepper will. We'll see.

Yeah, I'm sure he's extremely bitter to be coaching in the Super Bowl.

Oof. It says a lot how immediately after he said he learned a lot about how NOT do do things he immediately started talking about the 49ers ownership. Tell everyone Tepper is the problem without coming straight out and saying it.

Purdy was too small. Damn... they gotta be trolling us.

Sure ya did, buddy.

Sorry, can't pity them. Insurance companies happily take your money and then when it's time to pay up here comes the bullshit. Their books look just fine. If they start laying off rank and file workers it'll be to pay out more dividends not because they're struggling to survive.

They're just trying to survive, y'all. https://newsroom.statefarm.com/2022-by-the-numbers/#:~:text=Net income for 2022 was,insurance in force%2C %241.1 trillion.

Nope. No way. He's under contract for the coming season either way.

Yeah, it's a negotiation ploy. In a statement following Causey’s announcement, NC Rate Bureau Chief Operating Officer Jarred Chappell said, “This is an expected step, and part of the rate filing process. It doesn’t preclude settlement talks, and many rate negotiations have been settled before the hearing date arrives." Last time around they were asking for like 25% and settled for about 8%. Shoot for the moon and hope you land in the stars. They'll probably end up getting about 15%.

I don't give a poo what he did in Pittsburgh nearly a decade ago when I'm currently sitting here looking at my Panthers like

At some point we're gonna have to consider flip flopping Ryan and Trimble's PT. They're both good defenders but Trimble is the better defender. And Trimble knows his role in the offense. Ryan is killing us lately with his terrible shooting percentage. If they don't start falling soon you gotta tell him to chill. You can't let him Caleb Love brick us out of games. And if he's not hitting jumpers then I'll take Trimble in every other facet of the game. We missed Trimble's lift tonight.
