We certainly don't look "close" to me. All that space. Bend don't break. Players letting receivers run right by them speaks to confusion. Stafford out there playing chess and Evero playing checkers. Not playing to a player's strengths. We need new personnel in the middle of the field. If we're going to play this scheme, we need new pass rushers. My goodness. Why in the fvck did I put myself through this pain?

BC suffered a ruptured Achilles, so it's kinda difficult to envision him as a more important signee than Corbett at this point. Although it's easier for linemen to return because they don't have to jump and make a lot of cuts, it isn't a guarantee. Even less so at 100 percent. I have read that it would probably take at least two years for him to even return to his old self (again, if he does). As always, hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.

Depends on where you look. In it's purest sense, it's just the dissemination of information in furtherance of a cause. Believe it or not, propaganda doesn't have to be negative, and it doesn't have to be objective. The cause doesn't have to be just or unjust. That's the purest definition, but everyone can believe what they want.

Good grief, you'd think that I called the man a traitorous mole sent to infiltrate the fans and manipulate our minds by chicanery. This might be the last time I start a thread before the crack of dawn. I guess a I'll have to have my caffeine next time.

Some of you are reading way too much into this. I've already said that "Homer" was a better choice of word. Agent of an organization is just that. Nothing inherently wrong with that. And, yes, Stew is obviously drinking the Kool-Aid. There's nothing inherently wrong with that. He loves his team even to the point of being a homer. There's nothing inherently wrong with that either. I said that I thought that it was way too early to declare Bryce the long term starter based upon his body of work, and that's what I meant. From what I've gathered from comments here, Stew has a Pollyanna attitude when it comes to the team. Noted. I'll just take that into account when he's discussing the team.

You realize that it doesn't have to come from the Panthers HQ to be spin? If you live and breath something---basically drink the Kool aid---espousing the company line can come natural.

Even if you're somewhat correct--not totally--it's still not hyperbole. I mean, why does any of this stuff matter? Just something to shoot the sh¡t about.

We are talking last week's playoff game, right? https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/202601100car.htm?hl=en-US#all_player_offense https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/gametracker/boxscore/NFL_20260110_LAR@CAR/?hl=en-US https://sportsdata.usatoday.com/football/nfl/stats/2879581?hl=en-US

So you say

Well, I did admit "Homer" was a better word. "Propaganda," on its face is not hyperbolic in this sense, nor is it necessarily a negative word. Only due to fairly recent events is there a fully negative connotation (which I also alluded to), so I don't know what to tell you. @LinvilleGorge or any mod feel free to change the term. Thanks.

"Homer," is the better term. On an off note, you don't have to be Dave Canales to be a lifelong fan. Get it?

"Trash" is very much hyperbole, I would never "trash" Stew. I must admit, however, that "Homer" is the better word, especially with the realization of what's happening in America during these times. Sensitivities are up.

I like him too, but I'm still skeptical of his take. It's too early to be saying that in my opinion, based upon lingering questions over three seasons. Depending upon which stats/metrics you give credence to, Bryce is still bottom third of the league.

Not trying to be flippant, but what the hell is a Pass Game Coordinator? On a team where the HC calls the plays, wht do we even need an OC, much less a PGC? ABC, possibly, hopefully: Anybody but Canales.
