If you were to fight a panther and a buccaneer in some sort of cage match my money is on the panther now the buccaneer got a sword and that's pretty bad ass but if you took that away you'd also have to take away the panthers claws to make it a fair fight, that being said, declawed panther still mauls unsworded buttaneer cause superior incisors and whatnot. So ipso facto I got a good feeling come Monday

Buccaneers used guns more than swords. And you can't just decide to take away things from them, because these are defining characteristics. A buccaneer would beat a panther by shooting it. 

 

Oh but roedo, you could not be more wrong. Captain Jack Sparrow only had one bullet, but he crossed swords with lots of folks.

 

The defining characteristic of a Pirate, is his sword. Given that, I'll take the Panther. I don't know why you expect a fair fight from it. It will stalk your azz until it finds a weakness. Then....well, let's just say, I would not plan on a late dinner if I was the Pirate.

well we've done it. We've sunk to an all time low as a board. Thanks to all the dumbasses that make this place unbearable 95% of the time these days.

 

 

 

ps:  don't declaw your cats. If you plan to, please find your cat a better home instead. 

 

Dude. You truly are Mr. "GET OF MY LAWN"  aren't you? Have you ever checked how many threads you jump into to spout this spiel? At least you are consistent. I like consistency. Hey, so does Ron. Him and I are bros. Did you know that.

 

And yea. You don't deserve a pet if you cannot take care of them.

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
