Or are we about to go on a run?

After hearing Cam on his thoughts about Mr Richardson

Then seeing this in the article on ESPN.com

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/21839807/nfl-first-choice-carolina-panthers-remain-charlotte

 

"Kuechly said the Panthers, who lost Super Bowls after the 2003 and 2015 seasons, want to send Richardson out with a Super Bowl victory."

 

"That would be the best way to send him off,'' Kuechly said. "Everybody wants to win the Super Bowl. It would be very meaningful for him.''

Tight end Greg Olsen said the meeting with Richardson was emotional.

"You felt for him,'' he said. "To see a guy who's worked his whole life to bring this organization to Charlotte and have him sit there and tell you and see it on his face how heartbreaking that is that he's going to give that franchise up to somebody else ... it's hard to see people in those positions. It's human nature. You don't want to see people struggle.''

 

 

 

Just feel some of these players are about to go Off!!!  Superman and the crew about to put on their Capes

Whole thing feels weird

 

its not like he has a terminal illness or something. The dude is being forved to sell the team due to sexual and racial allegations. 

 

Either the pc climate is way too damn hostile and rediculous or the players dont take the allegations seriously. Its strange.

I feel like you can still like a person and care for a person without condoning their actions. These players clearly love and respect Big Cat but that doesn't mean they don't take the allegations seriously. People are very complex and for some reason we always like to put them in black and white boxes

You're right, it is strange. It's not like the other outings going on in the media at this time, there isn't an avalanche of "me toos" coming out about him from other employees or team members. As a group, they seem to be standing shoulder to shoulder in support of JR. And these are college educated, wealthy, socially aware people, not just a bunch of mindless neanderthal jocks.

He is not being forced to do anything. By the NFL or anyone but himself. He's choosing to sell.

Forced? He decided to do that himself.

I'm not gonna speculate on the players' feelings about JR, but I certainly agree that most people are shades of gray. The man screwed up but I can see him also inspiring loyalty from the players and coaches.

      Holy poo, App State is 5-7 and in a bowl game. LOL! The dozens in attendance look thrilled to be there. Attendance is so light half the players' parents didn't even bother.

      I have said that about Morgan in his playing days looking at facing Bryce, he would be licking his chops. To present a case for Dan having some sanity. I mean no way a real player would fear him, right? But I am not sure any more.

      Bryce missed a number of opportunities yesterday. There were guys open but he had either already moved on from them or never even got to them in the progression. He doesn't have a guy right now that he trusts. It was TMac earlier in the season, but he and TMac are not on the same page all the time, and Coker is actually the best WR on the team right now. I know that hurts some feelings, but it's true. The oline got their lunch money taken all day. It was really bad. In both the run game and the pass game. You could see when the QB lost all confidence in them and that mental clock started to shorten. But as a QB you have to push through that and stand in the pocket, go through your progressions, and deliver an accurate ball on time.  But yeah, my biggest take away is that this offense lacks speed and a true playmaker. A couple of solid guys but no true playmaker. As much as BY checked down to RBs, they couldn't make a guy miss in one one opportunities. And they weren't even LBs. They were DBs. You have to make that guy miss.  If they're serious about winning right now and not about player development, then Jimmy Horn needs to take XLs snaps. They only put him in to influence the deep safety with fly routes - XL can do that. Jimmy can run a lot more of the route tree than XL right now. Also Etienne needs to play more snaps. If BY is gonna be a checkdown king, then they need someone that can actually do something with the ball in space. Interior oline is weak. They aren't very consistent getting to the second level. Outside runs are this team's bread and butter. Gotta embrace that.
