Saturday Preseason Games Thread


Saca312

Recommended Posts

To recap some of yesterday's preseason threads:

  • Jameis Winston was money. Cameron Brate looked good. Mike Evans is still Mike Evans. Watch out for them
  • PANTHERS WATCH: The 49ers defense was okay. Their defensive line looks legit. Solomon Thomas and Reuben Foster were worth their picks. HOWEVER, their offense is a rotting pile of trash. No playmakers anywhere. Hoyer's trash. Even with Shanahan, nothing appears ready to salvage their pile of poo. Expect the Panthers defense to literally murder everyone.
  • Bleh.

And now, for today. Some headlines to look for:

  • Tennessee VS Jets: Corey Davis of TEN, and Jamal Adams of the JETS. Keep an eye on TEN's o-line, as that will be a test for us this upcoming week in preseason.
  • LA Rams vs Cowboys: Will Sammy Watkins play? 
  • Cardinals VS Raiders: Derek Carr still firing away? Marshawn Lynch still got it? 

Talk away if you're actually watching any of this.

Dont sleep on the 49ers Offense. 

 

They have no reason to show a damn thing. If they truly are lacking in talemt, i sure as hell wouldnt be giving away an example of what ill be running, for an opposing team to shut it down. If my only advantage is a gameplan, i sure as hell wont expose it when the games dont count. 

 

Preseason is to weed out the guys who cant do bssic poo. Thats literally it. If a guy cant do basic poo well then there is no reason keeping him around to try to exucute more complicated stuff

Anyone not conerned about facing a largely unkown nfl team hasn't been a panthers fan for very long. 

 

Seems like we make backup QB's look like all pros.

In THIS era of Panther football, with an MVP QB entering year 7 at age 28 and superior in every other way to San Fran, losing this game would signify the need for a regime change-and would mean in a literal and symbolic sense JR would never himself see the Panthers win a ring.  That's how insanely unacceptable losing this game would be, NFL parity, road venue, and maddening Panther history be damned.  I've been a fan since the fall of '93 when our birth was announced and see no way we lose this game.

there's no Sunday thread. I don't really care though, im not interested in any of the 4 teams playing to care too much 

We play the Lions, but I'm more interested in watching the deterioration of Seattle.  1) I hate them, and 2) reality still says they win the NFCW by default.

    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.  
    • Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
