Yeah, so far so good. I hope he keeps it up. I'm just addressing the bewilderment on how he went undrafted. In terms of pure athleticism measurables, he's a bottom of the barrel athlete for an NFL CB. That has to have played a huge role in him going undrafted.

Evero?!?! Should he be on the Hot Seat
LinvilleGorge replied to DaveThePanther2008's topic in Carolina Panthers
Of course he should be. Injuries and roster issues aside, when you field a historically atrocious unit you probably should be fired, at minimum on the hottest of seats. -
Haven't heard much about him out of camp, but yeah we paid him to be an impact starter and that's what we need out of him.
-
His 40 time would've been the slowest CB time at the combine and pro day times are notoriously faster than combine times. His 10 yard split would've been 2nd slowest. His vertical would've been the tied for 3rd lowest among CBs. His bench reps would've been the lowest. His three cone would've been the slowest. His broad jump would've been tied for 4th shortest. His shuttle would've been tied for the slowest. There's no way to sugarcoat it, his pure athleticism measurables are very subpar for an NFL CB. Now we're going to find out if he can overcome that on the field. I'm happy about the reports out of camp and he had a promising first preseason game but we need to pump the brakes a little bit here. Crowning him possibly the best Panthers UDFA of all-time after one solid preseason game? I mean, c'mon... LOL

Might call it an advantage or maybe not??
LinvilleGorge replied to Doc LRB's topic in Carolina Panthers
On the contrary, he can flip you off with his other hand while preparing to knock the hell out of you with the big hand. LOL -
His workout numbers really hurt him. Teams probably looked at these athleticism measurables and simply saw a guy that they didn't consider an NFL caliber athlete.

Media touting tonight as The Shedaur Show
LinvilleGorge replied to Puresteel55's topic in Carolina Panthers
Through one preseason game, Shedeur is 13th in passing yardage, 16th in completion percentage, and 20th in passer rating with few starters playing. The way a lot of people and the sports media is acting you would've thought he was the clearcut best QB in the preseason but he's actually very middle of the pack. Just keep in perspective y'all. He struggled against starters and primary backups and played well against camp bodies who won't be on a roster in a couple of weeks. -
That Trevin Wallace grade is concerning albeit with a very low sample size. Like it or not, we are likely heavily counting on him this year.
-
If you punch a man wearing a football helmet in the head you just failed an IQ test.
-
It would be fair to classify comments openly cheerleading an opposing player playing well against our camp bodies while ignoring that he played nowhere near as well against the guys who are likely to be on the final roster as "jackass comments".

Media touting tonight as The Shedaur Show
LinvilleGorge replied to Puresteel55's topic in Carolina Panthers
My statement was true. You not liking it doesn't make it false. -
Nic Scott sucks. Ultimately though, coaches oftentimes play guys who suck but who knows their system and will reliably fill their role even if they're performing their role poorly. They can point to the tape and say "see, it'll work if we upgrade this position". I just wish more coaches realized that their job is to ultimately help the team win, not provide proof of concept of their systems.

Jacksonville is really screwing up if they're legitimately trying to use him heavily both ways.

LinvilleGorge replied to Puresteel55's topic in Carolina Panthers
My apologies that fact hurt your feelings. LOL -
Damn. We could've gotten 6 whole wins and likely cost ourselves T-Mac in the process.
-
We had a -193 point differential last year. We weren't losing by FGs. LOL

My hope for an ending to the musical chairs at kicker is waning
LinvilleGorge replied to TD alt's topic in Carolina Panthers
We can't find a serviceable kicker, meanwhile the Jags have a dude banging 70 yarders. LOL -
Media touting tonight as The Shedaur Show
LinvilleGorge replied to Puresteel55's topic in Carolina Panthers
What the media doesn't acknowledge is that he basically did play like crap until we were playing third stringers and camp bodies. He went 3/7 for 26 yards against our starters. -
Say NASCAR fanboys, meanwhile NASCAR drivers...
-
It didn't help when Bryce threw it three feet behind an open crossing RB on 2nd down. That would've moved the chains.
-
Seven consecutive losing seasons will do that. The offense had one awful three and out then a great TD drive. The D honestly did not play well, even the starters. Shedeur missed a couple of open receivers early and a receiver flubbed up and cut a comeback route half a yard short of the sticks on a 3rd down. Overall, I didn't see a lot to get excited about to convince me that the results are gonna be much different this coming season.
-
On the flip side, if either gets a sack in week one they'll be surefire HOFers.
-
Oof. That off-season/TC hype didn't translate well.
-
Andy Dalton is gonna take $8M of Tepper's money this year while no longer being an NFL roster caliber QB. Mad props to that. Well played, sir.
-
1. Not sure we know that for sure. I mean, the D was going up against the opposing 4th string QB. 2. Yeah, a team that won three games last year absolutely dominated us as soon as our starters left the game. 3. The punt return game in particular looks to be full blown panic level red flag alert.
