Peanut talks Panthers...glowingly

Although it was difficult leaving Chicago, Tillman called the move to Carolina “one of the best decisions that I’ve ever made.” He expects the Panthers to be right back in the running next season after their loss to Denver in this year’s Super Bowl.

“My experience there was just so amazing,” Tillman said. “I learned a lot. Being a 13-year vet, guys think you know everything. I don’t.

“I learned a lot about myself. I learned a lot about the business side of football. I learned a lot from Dave Gettleman, our general manager, who I think is the coolest guy in the NFL from an executive position.”

Tillman said the ties that bind were similar between his Super Bowl teams in Chicago and Carolina: chemistry, cohesiveness, camaraderie. And both had strong leaders with Smith and Ron Rivera, respectively.

“I know they’re two times, two separate occasions, two different teams ... but it was a team mentality,” he said. “Everyone bought into what the head coach was selling. We bought all that stock. We’re a team, we’re going to win, Super Bowl — we bought all that early.

Who is the poster who claimed that he knows for a fact all the players hate Gettleman?

CPantherKing, and it's well known he makes that stuff up. He has no inside info.

What's funny is he thinks people will believe him when he actually has no credibility at all. Most people just laugh at him and make fun of him.

Bring him back please. We can stash him on the PUP until like week 13. Until then he can be an extra coach. With 3 rookies, I'll take all the help we can get.

You know I'm all in on this.  Been preaching it for weeks!!

It would be tough for him to coach and rehab at the same time.

Not like an actual coach. Just to be around them in the meeting rooms and on the sidelines. Then if he's ready mid-late season we've got a fresh Peanut for the home stretch.

Sanchez wearing 31...if that matters at all. 

Saw that and went "bummer!"  BUT, If Peanut comes back, I imagine Sanchez will gladly change numbers just for the experience to sit at the guy's feet and be on the same team with him!  There were some changes to rookie jersey numbers last year in preseason I believe...

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
