What a genius Lucci line from Fletcher. And I couldn't agree with him more. He had an amazing season and he deserves to get in over Jon Beason. Sorry, Panthers fans. Fletcher's been doing it for years -- and this may be the best season of his career.

Considering how lopsided the van vote was in favor of the Redskins, for Beason to get in over Fletcher shows it wasn't a popularity contest. Beason had to have gotten the majority of the coaches and players votes. So if they want to cry about Fletcher not being in the pro-bowl it was because his peers thought Beason deserved it more.

Truth. Who would know who is the best? The people facing them, that's who. The coaches that have watched games and tape and seen the MLB eat their offense alive. They swung the vote hard core, so no one should whine. This is about THIS season, not the past 10, if it wasn't Kasay would be the biggest snub ever. His numbers aren't even that great, and his team is mediocre, so whatever, typical NFC East homers.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
