This is risky, but is wrong to want a blue collar work ethic?

I was actually took some time off from the huddle after the last game, I hate it when we can't close a game...I still think we have a chance to win this division but over the last couple of losses something been getting on my nerves...

 

Newtons's first down celebrations, especially when behind....this is not a Newton bashing thread, it's just that doesn't this team to need to get back to a more blue collar work ethic---that they work as a team and that individuality and showmanship is put on the back burner? even TD celebrations when behind could be knocked off...the job is to win, not celebrate your stats...

 

This team needs to work as unit to get wins, they all have to have a good game to win now..we don't have any stars (except Star) and RR needs to return to a team concept.

 

Isn't that RR's MO anyway? should this team reflect his personality?

 

this is only place I could bring this up, so if it's been talked about to death forgive me and lock this up.

 

But if we are going to start getting traction, something has to change and attitude doesn't cost a dime...

Its hard to say for me. Im not big on doing the Superman or 1st down if we are gettn whooped. But i would welcome Norman's 'hype the crowd' after a big play to get crowd in it. So i think it depends. I have no problem with celebrations in general, but there are times to just walk back to huddle/sideline.

I don't mind his superman celebrations, what I don't like about it is how long his teammates have to stand and wait for him to finish before congratulating him, like when he scored against NO last Thursday. It looks so awkward.

I think there is a poster here with a signature that shows Jordan Gross about to congratulate him and he starts his superman and Jordan just walks away.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By MHS831 · Posted

      When I arrived at college, I was 18, not too much younger than some of these draft picks.  It was not a huge school, but there were guys on the team who were 21, 22, 23....playing ahead of me.  I was seventh on the depth chart.  Those guys have been through a few seasons, were stronger, more knowledgeable.  I was a better raw player than some of them, but those other factors matter.  As I grew stronger, more familiar with the playbook, and learned what it was like to play in college, I gradually improved and with that, I rose up the depth chart.  It took most of my freshman year for the light to come on.  Had the coach thrown me into the starting lineup day 1, I would have probably failed.    And that was college.  So I agree with you based on my experience on a much lower level.  Frankly, I think that is why so many kids drafted to fill huge gaps bust.  The teams are desperate.  Anyone who looks to fill vacancies in the starting lineup through the draft is desperate.  You draft depth to develop.  For this reason, I say, "Let Walker start for a while."  Maybe Brazzell can be our WR 4.  Throw Hunter into a rotation and ask him to do one or two things.  Freeling needs some strength and he needs to work on run blocking.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.
