The guy has been a rock for us this year. By all accounts he was a huge presence in the locker room with his mentorship of the young guys in the secondary. But he's a free agent and there is a capable young safety behind him in Tre Boston who could be a starter next year. What do you do with Roman Harper?

Tre needs to play without committing multiple huge penalties before I can trust him as a starter.  Giving free yardage to that pathetic offense - or putting our pathetic offensive line any closer to our own end zone - was something we could not afford last night.

who knows if they were actually penalties since the only replays we saw were oher and remmers getting beat. I'm skeptical

Until last night, Boston hadn't ever committed a penalty. Your comment makes no sense.

For contrast and to see what a penalized player looks like, Teddy Williams and his penalties: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/W/WillTe00/penalties/

I appreciate what Roman Harper brought to the team during his tenure, but I think Tre is ready for the full time gig next season. Harper's job was to get Tre and the young secondary ready for the NFL, and he did a great job at that. Hes too much of a liability now and Tre is too good for us to bring Roman back.

Sign the one day deal and retire a Saint.

They did show atleast the unsportsmanlike penalty, he slapped the ball out of the guys hand after the play.  Ticky tack, yes, but also a penalty.  As for the other penalties, it's no surprise they didn't show anything, didn't wanna show the NFL in a bad light after their blatant fug up on the first challenge.

Harper's best days are behind him and I don't know that Boston is the answer.  This has nothing to do with the Super Bowl either.  Harper was a liability in pass coverage all year.  However, he was a stopgap and the best option that we had.  Boston still looks like the same player from college ... for every good play there is one that leaves you scratching your head.  Don't like the attitude either. 

It is a necessary upgrade during the offseason and depending on how the situation with Josh works out, it may be our biggest need on defense ... followed closely by DE.

Officials played a major part, used to that though....sucks, can't let them determine a game 

Only way to do that is blow a team out. Not going to happen when your a freshman at the Superbowl. The Refs for what ever reason are destroying this league.

Sadly the NFL is becoming a big joke as NASCAR did. The fun is being sucked from the game and each year the refs get worse.

Funny a lot of people here was pissed off when he signed here.  Good mentor but on the field he was hit or miss.  But overall a good pickup. 

He seemed a lot more solid this year than last (although the stats don't necessarily support this). I say we keep him around if he want's to play (cheap). Worse case scenario, he can add depth and continue to be a mentor.

      Does anyone actually think Bryce will actually be good?

      By frankw · Posted

      I feel like anyone within the Panthers fanbase no matter where they land on Bryce should agree on this. He's a good kid. He's intelligent. But ultimately is he going to ever be the guy to command a locker room? Obviously none of us can say. But I just don't get any alpha vibes from him whatsoever. Is that a dealbreaker? Not necessarily. Here's the thing though. We had the talk of his generational years ahead of his age leadership trait clubbed over our heads for weeks nonstop before the draft. But after seeing someone like Sam Darnold navigate life as a starting QB I think anyone here should be able to acknowledge homerism there are some similarities to Darnold in terms of personality. That is not what we were sold. All of this takes me back to before the draft. I just can't shake the sense that Stroud just rubbed Tepper or someone the wrong way. Was he too confident? Not subservient enough? Did they feel Bryce was more marketable and media savvy? My gut says these things weighed more into the pick than they should have. If not. Stroud more than likely would have been the selection. What's done is done though. I'm just like you though. I want to see some fire from Bryce at some point this season. But I'm expecting to be disappointed considering his first order of business following one of the worst rookie seasons ever was to detach completely and do nothing. As always. Hoping for the best. I feel like I have to put a disclaimer at the end of this post for the Bryce superfans. I want to see him do well. I don't want this to end in the worst case scenario. There now we can be friends!

      Every Big-Time Throw from Bryce Young and CJ Stroud in 2023

      By Basbear · Posted

      I felt the Cam vibes on the huddle with Bryce, in fact its almost there. Threads that have no mention of young, turn in them.  Only deal is Cam had tons more supporters/nut huggers.  I honestly hated talking Cam with 90% of the huddle, in many eyes he was perfectly accurate with all his throws and if he had a legit great game the true haters were missing in action.   Cam board is now a Bryce board...
