2018 NFL Predictions
 

Quote

Offensive Rookie of the Year: D.J. Moore

He is a plug-and-play playmaker in what I anticipate will be a dynamic offense in Carolina. He is learning three receiver positions on the fly, so his speed of thought will have to catch up to his speed of play, but I don't think it will take very long. Cam Newton already trusts him, and he can be explosive in the slot and on the outside and will see plenty of run-after-the-catch with him, too.

While I love Moore, I don't think he will be a "serious" RoY contender, and that isn't a slight against him.  I think he will put up good numbers.  I just think Cam will have plenty of weapons that the Panthers will not have to rely on Moore enough to get RoY numbers. 

Cam being Cam (running it himself, even if they are trying to move away from it), Funchess, CMC, CJ Anderson, the rest of the WR corp that is amazing for a Panthers team...

I just think the numbers will be too split up between the targets for Moore to have a RoY season, numbers wise.  And this is not a bad thing.

I definitely hope he is, but o seriously doubt it. RBs probably have the easiest transition to the NFL of all positions and one of the best RB prospects in recent memory was in this last draft and then you have to consider that QBs get all the glory and that there will likely be 2-3 rookie QBs starting this year.

Just now, Cracka McNasty said:

I really don't see it happening. I don't think there are enough touches to go around. 

Agreed

He did look Real good in camp then in game 1 as well.  Had some people buzzing around here even igo, saying they thought he'd end up being our leading WR this year.  

Then the last 3 games, he's disappeared.

 

Meanwhile Samuel has looked like a Stud, Funchess is still Funchess.  Wright is going to get his catches "mr 3rd down".  Olsen is still among the best TEs and will get catches, as will Thomas.  Ron wants to get CMC the ball a Ton.  Smith has looked baaaad but Ron will keep him on the field until he gets hurt just because he's a "vet"

 

Just no Footballs to go around to him to get those big #s

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
