The Adventures of Ben Boulware


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Got a feeling there's gonna be a lot written about this kid. He's definitely interesting in an offbeat sort of way.

He's gotten of to a good social media start with this tweet:

Now to be clear, the fact that Boulware wasn't actually here in 2016 is a technicality. He sees himself as a Panther, so what happened to them happened to him.

And then there's this from Bill Voth...

Ben Boulware showed up to stadium 90 minutes early today. So he took a nap in his car until it was time to check in.

...which Drew this response from Jourdan Rodrigue.

This is gonna be so dang fun

Yeah, she's probably right about that.

He'll make the 53. With that kind of attitude and pleasing comments from Rivera and Gettleman, no doubt he'll make it.

Rooting him all the way. Hope he soaks in his moment with the Panthers, and I will too. Boy, training camp is gonna be fun!

This guy is as throwback as throwback gets. TD and Luke are going to love him. He just wants to hit somebody. He doesn't have the measurables, but he's got more than enough want-to. He seems like a victim of the process to a degree in terms of teams looking for athletic freaks and not football players. Hopefully he has enough speed to play, because he's damn sure willing.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
