I don't even understand the Sir Cameron Newton: Leader of Men, Lover of Puppies...Esquire play on words. He was never a scammer... It's like me calling their old QB Donovan McStabb when he's never been accused of stabbing someone.

Philbillys don't let facts get in the way of insulting someone. It's their culture. Insult complete strangers before fighting them. Rob you if they win and then Philadelphia Parking Authority tows the victim's car while their recovering in the hospital. Completely different set of manners than Southern gentlemen and ladies have.

Luck is losing his shine this season. The narrative we'll hear if we beat the Clots will be about Luck struggling this year after getting to the AFC championship game last season instead of how much better the Panthers are getting, just like the Seattle game.

ok, read your first and last sentences. You created that narrative yourself

Didn't create it, just some advance scouting. Last week is what they are considering his first good game of this season. They laid the groundwork for the focus to be put on what's wrong with Luck and the Clots if we win. Same way Seattle got the lion's share of the spotlight after we won.

Anything can be argued because his current performance arc drives the narrative. It's that way with Peyton, too. He's been great in the past, but he's not scary this season. There's been a ton of debate on here about Luck, especially comparing him to Cam. In the interest of keeping the talk focused on the Iggles, I used the qualifier undisputably in my original post. I have an opinion about Luck's past seasons, but that doesn't mean I need to share it with everyone and rehash an offseason debate yet again.

comparing a great qb on his final legs to a rising star in his fourth year. Smh "he hasn't been scary this season" like he somehow forgot to play football over the offseason after that AFC championship game appearance. 

 

Your falling into a trap of thinking a media narrative has anything to actually do with a players skill level. Because he isn't "perceived" as being as good as he was doesn't make it true. You would think people would have learned that by now under cams 5th year.

I cant think of a comment snarky enough to truly convey how hard i laughed at that eagles fan when he kept going on about the giants game from years ago as his platform for "Cam cant bring his team back from adversity!! NO NO NO I DONT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT ALL THE TIMES HE HAS DID YOU NOT SEE THAT GIANTS GAME MAN? WERE YOU NO WATCHING? QUIT BEING A HOMER #towel #adversity #bradfordleaderofmen"

 

What a collection of south jersey racist yankee dorks

There is something perversely hilarious about a team saying "they haven't played a good QB" when that team also doesn't have a good QB.

Bradford will be like the 3rd or 4th best QB we have faced this year...

This ain't the Giants.  Eagle offense plays like they did on Monday they have no shot.

Luck is playing with a bum throwing shoulder behind iffy OL play.

Kinda a similar type thing as Cam playing w/ bad foot, busted ribs early last season....Luck is legit when healthy.  Has his own flaws but definitely a legit top young QB.

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

      By cranky · Posted

      Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers.

      Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
