Ryan defends Cam celebrations: Who is gonna throw someprops his way like they did for Sherman?

Many bashed Sherman last year for essentially being himself ( showing his personality). A few days ago many praised him and gave him props for defending Cam.

Now Matt Ryan has done exactly the same thing. I highly doubt it, but curious to see if the same comments of respect and in short "reeling in of the hate" will go on for Ryan.

Big difference between Sherman and Ryan.

Matt Ryan told us to get off his fuggin field, so he can go eat a dog poo sandwich.

I agree and said as much when we played them. That said, the comment was made with him being a "player"...with him " showing his personality"...with him "being who he is"...etc etc. All the same things we back Cam up with when others criticize him for being " who he is".  That is the point I am driving at...we praise one for playing with fire and being themselves and being lost in the moment, but don't extend that same consideration to others.

Cam has helped to open our eyes to the fact that football players are emotional creatures. It was easy to condem him 3 years ago, but now that we can  look at how we love our own qb doing that and more,  fair to let it go.

Thanks Matt! Now make sure your breeches are bleached and clean next time we come to say hi in the.backfield. :)

If it was Drew Brees, or hell, even Jameis Winston saying it I'd care.  Matt Ryan is like the human equivalent of watching paint dry.  No one cares about Matt Ryan.  He's mediocre as hell and boring as poo to boot.  The dude ends up with some of the most inflated stat lines I've ever seen from a quarterback that doesn't come anywhere close to matching the eye test.  If not for that he'd be one of the most irrelevant players in the league.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
