Anyone just see DeAngelo Williams on SC?

I'm sitting at the bar for lunch (don't judge) and ESPN is on, without volume. 

DWill is on and it showed a headline of "no new friends" and it showed panthers players tweeting at him re: his remarks before our Super Bowl. (He wasn't very supportive for those who don't remember). He seemed like he was having to explain himself, uncomfortably...

Anyone see this and can add insight on was said?

I saw it while on the treadmill and plugged my headphones in; he was joking, talking about not classifying specialists (K,P,etc.) as people or football players.  It came across as his usual weird "trying to be awkward" jokes that are just stupid.  I then plugged my headphones back into my phone.

D Will's career: 

2006: Hit the hole? Nah dude go for homerun every time

2007: Hey I played good down the stretch but my cardio was meh so a 40 year old QB told me to get in shape

2008: Hay guys I'm in shape and one of the best players in the league.  No need for another RB see?

2009: Still good but w/e

2010: Skip

2011: Meh I kind of will work

2012. Same

2013: I'll try against the Saints

2014: We have momentum? Time to fumble. 

2015: Look you guys, I'm in shape again! F U Gettleman.

Did catch the tail end of his segment on First Take. He still talks to Hardy but DV isn't discussed, wasn't truly aware how much of an issue DV was since he's so wrapped up in his Breast Cancer stuff then issued an apology to his teammate William Gay because Gay's mother was a victim of DV and Gay is very heavily involved in DV projects.

Back in 2014 (or 2013?) we had a MNF game against the Patriots. It was a black out, and I wore my black #34 jersey.

I went out to bars afterwards and took it off bc I was hot. I stashed it in what I thought was a safe, discrete place. Well someone stole it. 

I ain't even mad anymore. I'm not sure I would have kept his jersey in my collection after his antics this past year.

How to be an NFL RB (according to Deangelo Williams)

1) line up way back

2) jog to the handoff

3) jump stop at the line

4) side step

5) fall down over someones feet

 

Repeat until someone gives you 40 million dollars.

6) Be Panthers all time leading rusher

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
