I have to finally give Bradberry credit

Jackson/Bradberry have the potential to be the best CB tandem we had since Gamble/Lucas

They’ll be better. Bradberry just got started and Jackson is a rookie. They’ve both got legit skillsets and youth is on their side for their athleticism.

 

Oh and just wanna say fug Jon Fox for not putting Gamble on Fitzgerald in 08 playoffs

 One of the most confusing coaching decisions of all time.

lets not put the shut down corner on the best receiver in the NFL....

i believe Larry even thanks the panthers for not putting Gamble on him in the post game

That game pissed me off no end.  I kept telling my buddy that if I could see what the Cards were doing from way up in the upper deck, why couldn't the coaches.  Still pisses me off to think about it.

He did thank them. 

It was like Fox outcoached himself. Like he thought, “Dont worry. Just you wait. They’re gonna switch Larry and put him on Gambles side. Then he’ll get shut down!.”

Fox deserved to be fired for that decision alone.  Anquan Boldin was hurt for that game... Stopping Fitzgerald was the most important thing on defense and Fox's arrogance got in the way

He's been getting more and more credit each week, but something about this past game cemented him to me as a top notch corner.  I'd say he's definitely in the top 1/3rd overall right now, and steadily improving him.  They kept going after him and he kept shutting everything down.

He reeeally reminds me more and more of Josh Norman every day.

    • Its really wild to watch this part of the community boil down the success of the 2025 Panthers to whether or not BY9 busts or breaks out. Ill take middle of the road mistake free game manager that distributes the ball and orchestrates the offense.  If we can get that with a D that doesnt put us in a 27 point+ hole every week the team can improve. Id love a deep post season run but honestly at this point Id be ecstatic about feeling like we could win every week.   Jake is never going to get a yellow jacket but damn if he didnt make watching the team fun.     eta: I think too many people are looking for an I told you so moment over their pre-draft "evaluation" of Bryce
    • I consider last year Bryce's rookie year.....and I expect some regression/D adjustment in his second season in Canales' O.  Film is film.   So yeah, I agree....he won't be the dude that opened up the year week 1 or closed the door week 17.  We will get some dude in between it all most likely.  Which IMO puts us in a really awkward no man's land with Bryce.   
    • The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't.
