ESPN vs. NFL Network

Both going through the red carpet shenanigans.  So far I've leaned toward NFL network, not sure who to turn up louder when the action starts.

Can't say I like ESPN but NFL network gets so shrill and superficial I might have to drop them later.

Any preferences?

I watch one until they go to commercial, then I switch to the other until they go to commercial. If they are both in commercial, I watch Big Bang. Oh, and of course I am pretty much glued to teh Huddle. Well, at least I will be if I get my chores done in time.

ESPN is without a doubt the sorriest collection of journalists I have ever seen. With a handful of exceptions they regularly fail to do quality research and the writing is just fuggin awful. Look no further than that sorry assed mock draft the other night as proof, or watch Kevin Negandhi, who has a terminal case of dumbassery, if you can stand his smarminess for more than 5 minutes.

NFL network may have some weak links but overall is so much better in terms of writing and basis for opinions.

ESPN is a much better option during the latter rounds. They actually cover each pick and Trey Wingo's team isn't so bad. NFLN will spend all of day 3 talking about whoever the cowboys pick. The nostalgia the selection jingle invokes is nice as well. I'll be watching NFLN tonight though mostly

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
