oh yeah speaking of which, everyone go read this awesome blog post by @Moorgan and help me decide whether or not i've ripped off his brilliance yet again

Ha! Mine had nothing to do with football. You're blending of the narratives is a skill all your own. I'm reminded of DJ Danger Mouse and the Grey Album. Jay Z and the Beatles merged? Brilliant and unique. Bravo my friend.

You're in Huddle country. We remember preseason games in intimate detail.

My first reaction to your accusation was "Hyperbole!".

then just as quickly I remembered Cams first start against the Bengals.  His first rushing TD where he bulldozed that DB to get in the end zone.  Buying his Reebok jersey in the team store for me and a 00 onesie for my newborn son.

so, uh, good call.

August 13, 2011

Preseason Game 1 at home against the Giants. This was the NFL debut of one Cam Newton (2nd on the depth chart behind the mighty Jimmy Clausen) who had a mediocre showing leading a couple of field goal drives.

Highlight of the night was rookie receiver Kealoha Pilares juking Giants' Ninth stringers out of their shoes en route to a 35 yard touchdown off of a Derek Anderson pass. We were crowning Pilates as the eventual replacement for Steve Smith and debating whether or not Cam should sit a year while DA was the starter the next week.

Good times.

This one is indeed personal.  It ain't just the team, it's the fanbase that I hate.  I hate Dallas fans like they hate proper hygiene, humility, football knowledge, grammar, critical and argumentative thinking, and map literacy. 
If they're America's team, well, NC seceded once.  If being a fan of that team makes one American, count me damned proud to not be one then.

The hell with Dallas, the hell with the Redskins, and the hell with the media. 

If Carolina plays with my intensity right as of this moment, you can proceed to call us the Chicxulub Panthers and you can call the Dallas Victims fossils.

      You can feel the Cresendo rising.... Rags fans are terrified everything just feels like the Canes do this.... I'll be at PNC Thursday.... make it loud make it proud.... I think it's gonna be a game were the Canes play at least 2 elite periods and Slaughter the Rags.... You could almost feel the moment the Rags will was broken in Game 5....

      Seattle was a run heavy team

      By rayzor · Posted

      One of the things that we have heard is that Canales is going to be putting a heavy emphasis on the run and that has made more than a few frustrated because "it's a passing league" and "you don't draft a QB 1st overall to have a run heavy offense". This isn't to argue either of those points, just pointing out something interesting i saw. I heard a comment yesterday someone made talking about how Canales' offense is going to look like what was seen in Seattle and what did Seattle do? Ran...a lot. This isn't something that i really noticed much at the time and, frankly, i'm kind of surprised by this. I mean they had Russ who was at the time a very good and very dangerous QB, and they still ran a lot (too much by Russ' opinion, which is why he wanted out). Yeah, Russ wasn't drafted first overall, or even in the first round. But looking at what he was able to do probably should have been. I checked to see just how much they ran and, well...here it is. I looked at their rush vs pass attempts and where they were ranked within the league for each.  For most of that time span i'd say they were pretty successful. after Russ got there they didn't have a losing season until 2021 and even then, that's been our ceiling for a while. During that whole time of their successes they were always in the bottom half in the league as far as passing attempts go. As a rushing team, i think their best seasons were when they were a rushing top heavy team.  is this a strategy that most of us would choose? probably not, but it can work. it doesn't matter the reasoning for being rush heavy as long as they can make it work and i think with this OL and RB room i think we can. Will it be the most exciting style of play? i don't know. but if it can keep us in games and help us win, i'm all for it.
