    How did this nickname come about?  I know he has a lot of hate here, but I am missing some connectors on this one.

    I had a topic that was supposed to be ‘Turnover Free’

    alas either my typing, type ahead  or a hanging iPad keyboard changed it to ‘Turnover Fred’ and  yet again couldn’t edit that thread and  folks on the board liked it smile

    not sure why editing option  works some  times and not others 

     

  2. Game predictions

    All three of our predictors guessed last week that the Panthers would lose to the Miami Dolphins. All were wrong. That moves Fowler to 4-1 on the year, with Kaye and Zietlow each at 1-4.

    Fowler: Panthers 30, Dallas 27. The Cowboys are known for playing entertaining games this season due to a high-powered offense and low-level defense. I think Carolina pulls the mild upset here, with Bryce Young playing about as well as Dak Prescott and Carolina’s running game providing the difference. Bonus prediction: Tetairoa McMillan scores his first NFL TD.

    Kaye: Cowboys 33, Panthers 30. 
    The top offense in the league is likely to come out firing on Sunday, as Dallas looks to get over the .500 hump after five games (including one tie). Will the Panthers be able to keep pace? I actually think they will, for the most part. There’s a lot of boom-or-bust to the Cowboys’ defense, and while the unit is starting to find its footing, I think Bryce Young will still have a good afternoon. Look for Tetairoa McMillan to catch his first touchdown pass in a shootout. But I still think Dallas has a better brand of ball at the moment.
     

    Zietlow: Cowboys 35, Panthers 31.                    I look at the Cowboys’ league-worst third-down percentage as a defense and can’t help but feel some optimism. Tag that with the other opportunities this defense could allow for Bryce Young, and a motivated Rico Dowdle, and a refreshed Xavier Legette ... and there’s excitement, for sure.

    Still, the Cowboys have gone toe-to-toe with the NFL’s best this season. Their quarterback is electric. Their tight end is prolific. Their defensive secondary is due for one of its patented turnover bonanzas. And to top it all off ... the Panthers will have a “home field advantage” in name only. There will be a lot of Cowboys fans in the crowd. A lot. It just doesn’t add up to a Panthers win to me. I’m rolling with America’s Team.

  3. When they take on the Cowboys, the Panthers will be doing so in style ... wearing a uniform combo they never have before.

    For the first time, Carolina will wear black helmets with blue jerseys, blue pants and blue socks. The Panthers have worn similar combinations before, but not this exact one.

    Carolina wore the black helmets with blue jerseys and blue pants against Atlanta in 2024, but wore black socks that game. The team has worn blue jerseys, blue pants and blue socks before -- including against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving in 2015 -- but that was with silver helmets.

    I have rarely been mad at Young for any of this. Sure I am sick of his play and get frustrated wvery so often and call him a lil or a peewee or high school or something. 
    It is everything that came with him that is so hard to deal with. Starting with watching him try to play NFL level ball. Knowing what was coming since April 2023 and enduring it into year three. 
    Being old with a finite number of seasons left and knowing they threw at least three of them away the minute his name was called was the worst part of it. Wondering if I would live long enough to see anything better or was he going to be it the rest of my life. They keep making the  mistake of seeing something in him, clutching their delusions. Watching that happen year after year and knowing it could happen yet another year. 

    Tepper stole my football joy. 

    I know, poor me. But it sucks I tel you. 

    Im unapologetically there with you

    Every time young touches the ball, i anticipate disaster and he seldom  disappoints 

     he is far far too limiting on the offensive playbook.

    i watched Dart last night and i saw confidence, fearlessness, toughness, velocity and egads, a qb sneak, Quickness of decision, trusting his WRs to make plays 

    and that velocity  and quick decisions didnt get his receivers killed with hospital balls 

    it was his 3rd game as a starter 

    Dart will have rough patches as he learns and film gets out on him but he at least has  a base to work with  

    he also seems to have the ‘fire in the belly’ to compete under the big lights of the nfl

    young, forget about it   Just forget about it

    he can bunny hop to something else

    Bryce been in the league going on 3 years…..and you can’t find two games where he has impressed more than Dart tonight.

    Truth is truth 

    If you follow the nfl for awhile, you know when a player has ‘it ‘

    and when they don’t

    Dart has ‘it’.  Young, doesn’t and  all the wishin and a hopin wont change it

    2nd game 

    I thought 3.  You thought 2. 
     

     

    love to have this kid but no   

    Jaxson Dart has played 4 NFL games, all in the 2025 season for the New York Giants. He has started all four of those games and is in his rookie year after being drafted in the 2025 NFL Draft. 
     
    You can find his game log and stats for the 2025 season on Pro-Football-Reference.com, ESPN, and CBS Sports. 
     
     
     
     

     

  7. big game this weekend  

    3. podcasts for board to enjoy. I leave them here with only a high level summation    

    IMHO Time for Young to shine  …if that is possible …against a team that allows 287 air yards and 3.2 TDs in the air per game 

    HL COMMENTS 
    1.  It  is not sustainable to continuous win in spite of young  and his turnovers    Young has to start elevating the people around him and his own game 

    2. Shoutouts to the denfensive coaches and changes made shouts out Rozeboom Wallace changes  swapping out roles.  Plus offensively, more variety In run game to inside zone which they had. It run before 
    3. Young.  8 TDs vs 7 turnovers  
     4. Dallas D is horrible against Pass   Stout,against run   Is Young an asset?  Can Young take advantage of that Dallas DEFENSE weakness

    5 Dallas is top ranked offense. They cannot fall behind 17 to 0 against this defense   Young has to protect the ball..no turnovers.  If they fall behind, they will not out be able to overcome Dallas offense
    6. Young still bad in foot work and sailing balls etc   
      7. Canales very high on young defensive players  
    8. Time and Important for Young to start elevating  his game or Panthers will look to another qb per Grazanio at ESPN

    Every move we’ve made is wrong except drafting Bryce.

    Yep. Isn't it just exhausting…all the reasons why Bryce is what he is at the nfl level 

    I’m not sure what nfl team he could be on…perfection expectation is exhausting and it doesn’t exist in the nfl

    #1 draft picks are supposed to make chicken salad out of chicken  poo, not be chicken poo. 

    if his happy ass continues to spot  opponents 2 tds before the second qtr ends, he won’t be on the NFL much longer in any case

    Are you really comparing QB numbers 20+ years apart? 

    We are in the age of the offense where QBs are putting up historic numbers and the NFL is continuously changing its rules to cater more towards explosive offense. It has allowed guys like Brees, Rogers, Stafford, Brady etc to play well into their late 30s and even their 40s.

    I don’t even want to imagine what Bryce would look like playing in the early 2000s NFL.

    There sure weren’t a lot of roughing the passer calls or pass interference calls either

    when I had PSLs always liked it when the Cowboys came to town, could sell my seats for way over cost

    Yes. I went to those games instead of selling

    In 2018, it was hot  as hell and the Panthers had some ‘entertainment on the side of the stadium, like a street fair…I have never seen so many seriously obese people, men and women, in cowboy leggings and shirts   I swear, it was traumatic 

    I said to my friend with me ‘dear god, Cam. In the name of all that is holy, please win  this home game, if you never win another one, to shut these people up.

      I stayed in a hotel sat and Sunday near stadium. Sweet Jesus  obnoxious …of course,when they lose,, there isn’t one sign of cowboys anything  

    worst fans ever,  they will be in Charlotte in force because even at the escalated price in Charlotte, , it was still cheaper than attending in Jerry ville
