Hope Cameron Artis-Payne goes somewhere where uniform

number 44 is available. He has massive "44" tattoo across his

entire back.

Cameron Artis-Payne might want to start negotiating with

#Panthers LS JJ Jansen for No. 44 now. CAP has a MASSIVE

"44" tattoo on his back.

In the days leading up to the Outback Bowl and not feeling he was getting enough of the spotlight shone on him, Artis-Payne decided to pay Melvin Gordon a backhanded compliment by saying he wished he could have loved to play against the defenses of Northwestern, Illinois and Purdue instead of the tough SEC defenses he played against.

Oops.

Gordon rushed for an Outback Bowl record 251 yards on 35 carries and three second-half touchdowns in No.17 Wisconsin ’s victory

on Artis-Payne's comment:

“It had me a little fired up; I’m not going to lie,” he said. ... And as an added bonus, he nearly doubled up Artis-Payne’s paltry 126 yards.

Tolbert missed a considerable amount of time last year and is not getting older. Not saying CAP will be the same as Tolbert physically but will more than likely replace him as far as his role on this team. Wouldn't surprise me if Tolbert is not on this team come Aug.

Yeah, he's pricey and performed very poorly compared to what we're used to, I still think he sticks this year as this could be a possible run to the championship. If jes up to par, hes still one of the best hB in the NFL..especially blockin-wise.

we'll see

that's because a lot of what's in the video is poor tackling.

 

You know where else you see an awful lot of poor tackling these days?

 

In the NFL.

 

The contact rules that the NFLPA got put into the last CBA have made good tackling a rare commodity (sadly).

 

That, plus you've got lots of guys wanting to make the highlight reel with big hits.  Textbook tacklers like Luke Kuechly are increasingly difficult to find anymore.

      Thielen was a "dawg" like Dan Morgan likes to say. And they replaced him with puppies.  The analytics are probably saying this is more targets for younger receivers they are hoping to develop, specifically the first round pick from 2025. The eye test is going to show a very inexperienced group of WRs that are going to have some serious growing pains, for a 3rd year QB who has not yet proven to be the guy going forward.  It's crazy how in the literal first game of his NFL career, Cam Newton showed everyone he was a star QB and there was never any doubt about that. It almost didn't even matter who was around him, although he definitely had a serious lack of talent at WR for most of his career. Bryce is going into his third season and there is still a ton of doubt, and who is around him is seen as crucial for him to have success. I don't like it.

      Everyone says AT was old and slow but the one thing he could do consistently was get separation. That takes skill and it's been a huge issue in our WR for years. And while Moore may be a great locker room guy and our WR coach may be a 12 year vet, he's not playing in the game. Vets like AT do what they do because they can see things others don't and exploit it. The DB interview I mentioned before was with Stephon Gilmore after his DPOY season. He was pulling the younger DBs aside showing them things you wouldn't even think you'd be able to tell from the way the receiver was standing.  Seeing what a DB or LB is biting on in game that can give you that half step advantage is huge and we don't have that experience in our WR group right now and I think it could end up hurting us. None of our receivers have lined up against NFL corners successfully on a regular basis. Having someone that can walk over and give you a tip to get a half yard separation can be a difference maker.
