Loss or not, the Salute To Service theme is aways cool to see and means a lot to a lot of people, including myself.

Here's some Salute To Service photos from Sunday, as well as photos from the first half. Let's forget the second half.

thankfully we didn't have anything else to spend those tax dollars on

Just a fun fact of the day, I'm an active duty Marine. I held one of those stripes that Sunday. No tax dollars went into that presentation. All of us (service members and families of the fallen heroes that were honored) drove with OUR own money and free will. We wanted to be there, we wanted to honor those men and women. The closest thing to tax dollars being used was the fly over, which by the way all pilots have to make a quota on flight hours, so adding in a timed flight path over the Bank of
America stadium is no big deal. Also, us service members pay taxes, pay for our health and dental, pay for our housing and quartering, pay for our food, and pay for our uniforms. Nothing is free or handed over, we pay for  everything  just like all of you do. If you do.

That must be a new policy, and it's good to hear. In previous years the Pentagon has paid millions to the NFL to promote the military.

Yeah but JR has never taken the money. He's always paid out of pocket for the presentations. There were a few articles about it last year.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
