Trai Turner @trai_turner  ·  May 26

Crazy how I've realized when I thought I was giving my all I actually had more to give. #KeepPounding

 

 

There's a BIG difference between college and the pros.  Sounds like Turner caught on to that fact pretty quickly.  Not to mention his having already adopted the Panther motto.

 

And good for him.  Knowing that will help him do what he needs to be an NFL starter.

 

Look forward to him showing just how big and ugly he can be.

Sounds good. Maybe he will pass that onto the other young guys.

I hope this guy is the steal of the draft. He looks like a smart and powerful man. Amini and him at Guards would be an young interesting line up.

I hope Amini can get his strength, weight and power back in time for mid training camp at the least. He would make me feel comfortable knowing we at least have two solid lineman with experience. Oddly enough I think Turner will be a bright spot and day 1 starter for us this season.

That is probably what we all project and think though. I hope it isn't to big for the 20 year old.

This right here is what seperate them men out of the pack. You really can't rely on what got you by in college. You have to put in that extra work to make it in the NFL. I am glad he is learning at his rookie stage. This pick could become very special for us. He seems like he is ready and has bought into Keep Pounding!

Scary.. and not in a good way.

 

Eeeehhh, I wouldn't necessarily call that lineup 'scary'.  'Unknown' or 'unproven' would be better words.

 

If Turner looks good and Amini is back to form, the interior line actually looks pretty solid.

 

The tackles?  We'll see, but don't discount the improvement that young players tend to show on an annual basis.

I just find it hard to believe that our o-line depth is so bad we are counting on a converted d-lineman to anchor the left side. That speaks volumes to me.

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years.

      Todd Bowles is losing his locker room… Canales meanwhile

      By amcoolio · Posted

      All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
