Bill Barnwell:

4. Carolina (6-0)

It speaks to how good this Panthers defense is that Cam Newton could throw three interceptions on 24 attempts and not ever make the Panthers feel like they were in serious danger of losing. I guess the closest that Philly came during the second half was when Caleb Sturgis pulled a 50-yard field goal, but even that would have just brought the Eagles within two at 21-19 with 12:02 to go.

The Carolina offensive line, much maligned by myself and many others before the season, also deserves a lot of credit for what it’s been able to accomplish this year, especially in terms of its run blocking. Philadelphia came into this game second in the league in rush defense DVOA, and even while Carolina’s passing game was struggling, the Panthers ran all over the Eagles. The Panthers carried the ball 33 times for 204 yards, including a 43-yard end-around to Ted Ginn to set up Carolina’s second touchdown of the game.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      Not sure he is in the top ten but: His 9.99 RAS score, second among 1,512 tackles since 1987, isn't a gimmick. You see every bit of that explosiveness translate to the field when he kicks and slides in pass sets. NFLDraftBuzz

      Legette as a TE

      By TD alt · Posted

      Ya win some, ya lose some. Legette looks to be a loss.  The time for disappointment has passed. I expect nothing, so if I get something I will be surprised.

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By TD alt · Posted

      I got called into HR one time, as they were doing their research after a verbal altercation that I had with another employee. He was the one that started the sh¡t and had the nerve to go to HR. Well, I did the meeting, & the manager gave me her card & said if there was anything else I wanted to say regarding the investigation, to contact her. I thought about it later that day, so I used our company email and told her that I was willing to take a lie detector test, and that if he and his two friends were willing to do the same, once it was determined that they were lying and that I was telling the truth, then they would have to be punished accordingly. Funny thing is, after that, I never heard from her again, or anything about the investigation. It's like it never happened.  Anyway, yeah 89 isn't doing himself any favors with this one. He wants to fight with a guy old enough to be his dad because of Rivera's lack of communication, even if there was some perceived hypocrisy going on. That's just not a good look.
