Prime Cam Newton vs Current Josh Allen
Davidson Deac II replied to Panther8989's topic in Carolina Panthers
Jake actually had a pretty good run from 03-05, when he was middle of the pack ratings wise. His rating in 05 was top 10 in the NFL. He fell off quickly after that, but John Fox just couldn't bring himself to admit it. -
I agree. I think a big part of the problem though is that the number of people who be generational (elite) qb's in the NFL is exceedingly small and its difficult to accurately judge that ability because, among other things, the talent disparity in teams. Arguably the two best qb's in the NFL right now (Allen and Mahomes), while certainly well known, weren't called generational talents in college. If Mahomes had played for Alabama, he would have come into the NFL with more hype than Lawrence. But he played for Texas Tech and got drafted after Mitch Trubiski.

Clemson had a much superior lineup to virtually any team they played they played in the regular season. Having a lineup that good makes a good qb look great, and a below average qb look average. In Lawrence's last season, Uiagalelei went 1-1 and scored 40 in a loss to Notre Dame while Lawrence was out with injury.
-
Not surprised, the Saints appear to be in the worst shape of any team in the division. That being said, as a Panthers fan, I would love it if they hired Kingsbury. Had a 13-16 record with Pat Mahomes as his qb. And he was 1-2 against Matt Rhule.

Government, large private company, all the same when it comes to bureaucracy.
-
I work in the private sector and I get the same thing, except they all them Zoom or MS team meetings. I have several regular ones that I am part of, and only a couple of them are useful to me. The rest of them are a good time to answer emails or get paperwork done.

I wish the refs had awarded a score just because o have never seen that happen.
-
Fwiw, I don't think Philly has been physically superior in this game, but they are mentally superior (meaning fewer bad penalties and turnovers).
-
That was definitely the right call.
-
Washington beat Detroit due to turnovers. They might end up losing to the Eagles due to turnovers.
-
He was on IR this entire season. He might be mostly done. IMO, the Giants were stupid while we were just facing reality and getting what we could while he still had some value.
-
I agree, what the Giants did was worse. Fwiw keeping CMC wouldn't have gained much for us. We still wouldn't have been competitive.
-
If you are comparing Barkley to CMC, there are some very significant differences. The Giants chose Daniel Jones over Barkley, we made no such choice. And they didn't trade Barkley, they just didn't resign him.

I actually remember Caldwell when he coached Wake back in the 90's. Everyone at the school said he was one of the most decent and honorable men you would ever want to know. But he came from Penn State, and just never could adapt to coaching at a school like Wake. I do think its amusing that Capers ended up here. While there was no internet forum back in those days, from what I remember, by the end of his tenure as HC, he was disliked almost as much as Rhule.
-
I was looking at the Panthers staff listing. I had no idea Dom Capers still worked for us.
-
Sometimes I wonder if NFL coaching staffs have grown to large. Is a passing game coordinator really necessary? Panthers have a offensive coordinator, run game coordinator, passing game coordinator, quarterbacks coach, wide receivers coach, running back coach, offensive line coach, and an assistant offensive line coach. Before to long, they are going to hire a coordinator to coordinate all the coordinators. Guess NFL teams have never heard the phrase to many cooks spoil the stew.

Pete Carroll to Raiders per Fox
Davidson Deac II replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
There are about 5 elite QBs in the NFL now. Brady has one in Buffalo. The odds of him finding another in New Orleans are slim -
Pete Carroll to Raiders per Fox
Davidson Deac II replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
I seriously doubt it, unless Josh Allen goes with him. -
True enough, but every kicker misses some kicks. Justin Tucker cost Baltimore at least 1 and maybe 3 games this year with his misses. Might have cost them home field advantage against Buffalo. That being said, I am not really bothered that he is gone, I just hope they get someone good because we have screwed fg kicker up a lot, going back to choosing Gano over Butker and eventually losing both of them.

Ratings are down on a number of events. https://sports.yahoo.com/college-football-title-ratings-fall-221040602.html#:~:text=The first College Football Playoff,to the year-ago mark. I have a feeling that tv sports ratings are going to continue to decline. Maybe a little, or maybe a lot.
-
Dam, I really wanted Jalon Walker. But if Kiper says he is coming here, he isn't coming here. Just kidding, I have no idea how good or bad Jalon Walker is.
-
I will say this for Pinero. After the Atlanta game from 2022, he never missed a kick with the game on the line. Of course, we have been so bad that he didn't do much kicking with the game on the line. Both wins in 2023 were won by Pinero kicks. The Saints game to end the season in 2022. And the Giants game this year. So basically 4 out of 5.

Denver NT DJ Jones. Potential FA target
Davidson Deac II replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
If you look at the top defenses in the NFL, it seems that about half run a 34 while the other half run a 43. I think the key is regardless of your base defense, getting good players for that defense and coaches that know how to run it, is the most important thing. -
Panthers sign players to futures contracts

One of my favorite Deacs. Boogie Basham. Hope he catches on and is able to contribute.
