no word yet. gantt was just beating everyone to the punch with the tweet. we'll find out more in a few minutes, i suppose.

i'm going to have to brush up on the new safety, though. he isn't unfamiliar to me but i want to get my facts straight on him.

carter getting cut is a heart breaker. hopefully he will get his chance somewhere. i don't even care if it is the UFL. i want that kid to succeed and a situation like that may be the best for him for the time being.

from gantt's twitter....this should be interesting.

Kasvinharn isn't bad, i think he played for the Bengels but don't quote me on that, but I'd guess Teal has the inside track on the starting spot, might be an improvement, he definitely tackles better and his is average in coverage. I just don't know if he has the athleticism that Godfrey brings.

Carter is kind of a suprise but maybe they did it so he could hook up with another team and have another shot somewhere else.

Kaesviharn.....................................

Well, I'm glad to see we are avoiding the injury bug. Damn we are snake bitten.

But, what can you do when you throw all your eggs into the basket of 21 of 22 starters returning. Huge gamble thinking you'll make it through a whole season without key injuries.

Fox and Hurney rolled the dice.................................

Kaesviharn is even worse than Godfrey. Hope Godfrey will come back soon.

Although maybe I can't fault him for missing so many tackles if his hand was that messed up.

seriously? how can anyone be worse than Godfrey? Pretty sure he broke it on Saturday, I will go back and watch b/c I think I remember a Panther looking like he hurt his hand.....pretty sure the hand can't be used as a scapegoat for last season and the preseason thus far.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
