The Panthers’ loss is now the Chargers’ gain with Boston opting to sign with Los Angeles last week. He did his due diligence by visiting the Chargers, Bills and Steelers, but ultimately, Los Angeles was where he wanted to be.

He didn’t fully realize that until he stopped at a gas station in Charlotte, N.C., where he was residing. It sounds completely unrelated, but a strange coincidence happened while he was pumping his gas.

Via ESPN.com:

“I crossed two lanes to get to the gas station,” Boston said. “I pump my gas. After I pump my gas, I put my wallet in my car. After I put my wallet in my car, there’s a guy with three kids and he asked me for a little bit of change, or if I had a dollar or two. I gave him a $20.

“So he tells me thank you so much, and that God put me in his life for a reason. And in my mind I’m saying you’re here for a reason, too. So in my mind I’m saying should I ask him, ‘L.A. or Buffalo.’ And before I could ask him, my man told me, ‘Thank you so much. There aren’t too many people like you in this world, God’s children. My name’s Mike Daniels, but people call me L.A.'”

After Boston realized the sign he just received, he gave the man $100 instead of the $20 he originally handed him.

People say he isn't real, but that's as real as it gets...

Tre has always been a real one, and has always kept it 100. He does a lot of good things behind the scenes as well. I was sad when we let him go, but I realized it was time and both the panthers and Tre needed to go in different directions.

This is why it bothers me that so many fans spew hatred for  players and coaches on these message boards. It's just a game and these are people doing the best they can with what they have just  like the rest of us.

 

yep.

Major league sports do a good job selling that these are super beings from another planet, but really they're just like everyone else, with more money. Fans gonna fan.

      Rams since you beat them already and they are 0-2 on the road against NFC South teams.

      Seahawks or Rams

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      Let's say we take care of business against the Bucs and/or the Falcons take care of the Saints and we lock that 4th seed for the playoffs. Who do we root for this Sunday in the NFC West matchup with Seahawks at San Francisco winner takes the NFC West division. A Seahawks win would mean we face the Rams at home or with a 49ers win we host the Seahawks again.  Which opponent would most prefer? In the earlier Rams game we won primary due to turnovers specifically Mike Jackson pick-6 in combination with a good running game with Chuba and Rico whereas we kept the Rams offense off the field and Bryce was able to connect on two big 4th down throws for touchdowns. However when the Rams offense was on the field they pretty much got whatever they wanted, Williams and Corum gashed us in the run game, and we had no answer for Devonte Adams. Granted whe were missing some pieces on defense with Horn and Moehrig. Against Seattle our defense held it's own for the most part, it was our offense and turnovers which aided in the Panthers loss.  Seattle was the most stingy, best tackling defense the Panthers have played all season, and when we turned Darnold over we didn't do much with it.  The offense had no answers for what the defense was throwing at them and apparently were caught off guard by the amount of man coverage the Seahawks played.  With all that who do you think would be the better matchup the 2nd time around? I trust Stafford far more than I do Darnold, both running games are on par with each other, of the defenses Seattle has the dominant unit.  I personally prefer Seattle again, that would mark their 3rd consecutive road game, we've just played them, so we know exactly what to expect, and I feel Caneles should be able to come up with a better scheme to counteract what the Seahawks defense was doing, and we may be able to trip Darnold up, I don't want to try and win another shootout against the Rams.

      I remember watching him at bama and thinking he throws a lot of wobbly non spiral balls that have very little velocity. Knew it would be a real problem in the NFL and it is.
