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.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Please don't tell me you just averaged the QB ratings of all of Shough's starts to declare his QB rating as better 😂 I hope you don't actually believe that's how it works.  Otherwise please show your math on Shough's QB rating as a starter. Thanks for including Shough's 2.6 more Rushing YPG in this comparison, really doesn't feel at all like you're desperately grasping for as many straws as you can here. The truth is, it takes a statistical bottom-tier starting QB like Bryce Young to make Shough look simply OK by comparison.  And that bottom-tier starting QB still, by your own admission, puts up more points for his offense than Shough.  You're framing this as damning for Bryce, but in reality the fact that him and Bryce are so neck-and-neck is shining Shough in a very poor light. Yes Shough is a rookie and Young is a 3rd year starter, which is why I circle back to my position of Shough having a "pretty solid, encouraging rookie season" whereas you're fanboying over him.  Never mind that Shough is 2 years older than Bryce though.  Normally yes a QB's experience in the league is invaluable...but Bryce is kind of a unique situation considering the biggest complaint with him is he is too physically limited to succeed in the league.  Do we think a QB can overcome severe physical limitations simply with experience?  Also I remember wayyyy back (/s) when we cared so much about DJ Johnson being an older rookie and our standard for them being that they're more NFL-ready and able to contribute sooner rather than later.  But now all of a sudden Shough is just a poor little 26-year-old rookie on an awful team.  Seriously...the way you frame everything around Shough is straight out of a fanfic.  Constantly referencing with tears in your eyes how he's succeeding against all odds on such an awful team.  Meanwhile the Saints' D is 14th in PPG and their offense (led by Shough) is 29th in PPG.  Telling me how the Saints managed a win on Shough's shoulders against the Jets last week who put up...*checks notes*...6 points against the Saints' D.  Yes god bless the savior Shough who willed his team to victory against those juggernauts led by Brady Cook.  Never mind how Taysom Hill threw as many touchdowns in 1 passing attempt as Shough did in 49 passing attempts.  Yikes.

      Who's gonna drop the gloves? I can't think of a single player on this team that can fight. Period. Much less get the best of an opposing player. Please.
