Damn, Sherman I mostly like what you have said in the past, but this right hear has nothing to do with Karma.....Could have said something better like....There is always next year Cam!  To still be talking about that flag is so weak...Who cares...you can take a panther flag down if that makes you feel better..that is if you win!...damn

I don't think it was karma that witnessed Cam Newton take arguably the worst back to back beatings in league history that just so happened to be Super Bowl 50 followed by our 2016 opener all behind a clearly vastly overmatched OL. Only to respond by doing literally nothing. Unless karma goes by the name of Dave Gettleman, I don't think Sherman's statement is accurate.

While in Seattle, the Seahawks have been fined over $1M, lost OTA activities, and forfeited a 5th round pick due to practice violations on three separate infractions.

Oh well I guess. I don't see extra practicing as cheating. but I see your point

 I could see it happening once and it being an honest mistake. But when it happens three times since 2012, it's either due to gross negligence or a deliberate effort to circumvent the rules. Based on his success, I don't think he's grossly negligent. Based on his past willingness to deliberately circumvent the rules, I do think that he's a cheater.

I don't disagree with you about rules, and such.

But to a degree, I wonder if it's really worth it to keep running this choir boy act our franchise has maintained over the years. For all the hate guys like Bellichick, and Carroll receive. You can't argue with the results. Sheer luck plays a big part in this league, and so many things went our way last season. But for sustained success, you have to have some arrogance, and a mean streak, along with a willingness to take chances, and go for the jugular. Unfortunately, I don't see that in Rivera, unless his job is potentially on the line. Sad reality.

You can use whatever colorful language you want, but at the end of the day, you're basically advocating that we should blatantly cheat. No thanks.

Um, I never said we should "cheat" bud.

The entire second part of my post was about mentality, and overall approach to the ever evolving NFL. The league has passed conservative cautious guys like John Fox, and Ron Rivera by.

I can appreciate trash talk, and he knows we're down.  Go for it.  Let's not get worked up over trash talk, this is the internet right?

They will take their revenge, drop 40 points on us, but they will still figure out a way to choke in the playoffs.

Hmm, he was a quiet mouse last year wasn't he not during that beatdown?

What if you guys beat him Sunday, then what?

This should be interesting, and could be the turning point of ya'll season; bulletin board material. 9-7 aint a stretch to get in honestly.

Nobody is playing well, including the Packers.

I doubt it matters to be honest.  The Cats are down to practice squad guys on the Oline so I would be surprised if they can keep it close.  But who knows, could be a battle after all.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
