lmfao ratings are up, almost nobody stopped watching and those who did were replaced by new fans with a better moral compass.

exactly, i have co workers who have claimed that they stopped watching pro football because of the kneeling stuff.  But then in other conversatons they reveal the havent watched pro football in over 20 years.  They think everyone in the NFL was kneeling and nothing I say changes their mind about it.

That's your opinion and your ignorance shows in your post. No one person can say what is or what isn't offensive. I think the whole situation proves you wrong with droves of people not watching the NFL anymore because of it. 

I’ve already said numerous times they’re entitled to their opinion. What I’m saying is it is objectively true that he is not disrespecting the troops by his intentions. His intent behind his actions are what should be examined. Not feelings.

Can I confess something to you guys? Does anybody remember when I posted a thread on here in the 2015 offseason where I said Derrick Morgan of the Titans had sent a Snapchat that said something about how Carolina blue the sky was to hint that he was interested in the Panthers? I completely made that up. I wanted to see how gullible the Huddle was and, sure enough, no one even questioned how I had gotten the snap. Does anybody remember how David Newton then stole that "scoop" from me, a lying anonymous person on Carolina Huddle, and put it in an ESPN.com article? David Newton is a dumpster fire of a reporter that deserved to get fired for what he did in 2015, but I didn't feel like screwing with the guy too much. But if he's going to keep pounding this flag poo into the ground, I have to make this known: David Newton took my lie on the Huddle, did absolutely zero fact checking, and posted it on ESPN.com as a legit news item.

No, kneeling IS a respectful gesture, you cant say it isnt.  Throughout the history of man kneeling has been a sign of respect.  Just because Trump says it isnt, now people have a problem with it.

Kneeling throughout history has been a sign of submission.  People had issue well before Trump so wth does that even mean?

Kneeling is not and never will be part of a protest. It only applies to people in a religious setting, In front of royalty, for a fallen soldier(not people killed randomly on the street), just to name a few. By saying kneeling is a sign of submission tells you people have to kneel for people of color that are killed unnecessary and if you don't submit you are wrong and labeled a racist.

Guess i'm labeled .  This breaks down to an attention whore. Otherwise take it to social media, have a news conference, go on CNN or  write a book all better ways and getting a message across. Cause as it stands now more people talk about the knee and the flag then whatever the message is.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
