  • FOX, play-by-play: Chris Myers, analyst: Ronde Barber, sideline: Jennifer Hale

 

Are you fuging kidding me?  Our analyst is Ronde Barber, the lifetime retired Tampa Bay Buc player??  

 

I'm sure this will be like watching a TB telecast.  How can they justify putting him on this game when there are so many others?

IIRC Ronde has been very complementary of the Panthers in the past.  He should know he was dribbled by Stewart like he was a Spalding.

 

 

Chris Meyers is just meh.

 

That may be true and if we weren't actually playing against HIS FORMER TEAM, I would be okay with it.  I'm not saying he will discredit us but I imagine it being a giant TB slurpfest.

I really don't think it will be. There is no one left from Barber's days on the team, so I doubt he has an affinity for them. Plus he is a really smart dude unlike most announcers so he should know to keep it neutral, possibly even skew towards our side so not as to give off a Tampa bias.

 

 

We'll see but I'm just glad it's not Tim Ryan or Joe Buck.

      Frank comment about Bryce? "Excited"

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I don't think he did it to spite Bryce. Seems like Bryce is a truly decent guy that virtually everyone likes. I do think Frank likely preferred Stroud and was either was led to believe or deluded himself into thinking that he would have a lot more say in the direction we went at QB in the draft. Once we decided on Bryce knowing Bryce didn't fit his system and preferences in a QB it really seemed like the wind went out of Frank's sails and he basically started mailing it in and just waited to get fired and paid out. Maybe I'm misreading the whole situation but that's certainly the way it looked to me from the outside looking in.

      give some props to Andy Dalton

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Again, it may have nothing to do with Bryce Young. The coaches are thinking about the whole roster. Many guys have said how much different this off-season has been not having to start from square 1 with a playbook, language, etc. You’re talking about bringing in a guy to lead the 2nd team offense who they now have to spend time teaching. Every team is different. This team is young and developing across the board and trying to find some positive continuity. With how Morgan and Canales have approached everything I’m fairly certain they considered all possibilities and decided it was best for the overall team to roll with Dalton for now. They value whatever it is they feel Dalton brings over the extremely low probability of whatever washed out, journey man, reclamation project developing into a franchise QB. You and I have no idea why and aren’t there in the meetings, but it’s clear that the FO sees this young failed franchise QB project as less likely to pan out than you do.

      Frank justed wanted to throw Young to the wolves because he wanted to draft Stroud. It was a big FU to Tepper and that is why he only lasted a few games before getting canned.
