Game last night

Maybe a little slow or getting to old to remember. But last night I noticed Rivers throwing a 'warm up' pass on the side lines before coming on the field on change of possession.

I know Cam does this all the time, throws one pass and comes on the field.

I have never noticed other QB's doing this.

Is this something that is becoming normal in NFL?

No big deal, just wondering

Helluva game.

Rivers took a head shot on that final drive and was livid when it wasn't called. Matter of fact, he pulled his helmet off before KC called timeout and I thought for sure they'd throw a flag on him. He was screaming at the refs- Cam would have been ejected.

Kelvin Benjamin sighting in a KC uniform. Saw him make a catch too.

Charger WRs are the real deal- even without Kenan Allen. Rivers was slinging it in the 4th quarter- wow.

Chargers everything is real. 3rd string RB was money, defense is good. They have a great coach. Could be an all LA Super Bowl.

Not saying I doubt what your saying I see it and believe it, but how many snaps does each player have?   I mean that kind of matters.  Is this a case of us having the who we have on the line already and/or is it that Ron plays vets over youth whenever possible?  Or could just be the original fact that he's just not that good but sometimes you wonder.  Lots of guys could flourish if they only had the snaps and I say that at any position.

    • Me and you clearly have different definitions of production. If you remove the 2023 season where Thielen had just over 1k yards he is 43rd on our all time receivers list just ahead of Jonathan Mingo. And before you ask why would we remove that season? Well a couple reasons. For one thing we won a whopping 2 games. And for the biggest. Thielen was 14th in targets in 2023. We absolutely force fed him the ball all season and finished with the 32nd passing offense. For comparison sake 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery eclipsed over 1k total yards in just 2 more games and with 67 less targets than Thielen did in that 2023 season. He has above average hands. That's it. We overpaid him because we were desperate and overvalued him. That's the reality no matter how many times you or anyone else wants to quote me and get defensive about it.
    • He's played great and it was a win-win (rare free agent) for both parties.  One of the points is he hasn't made enough difference to "waste" 35 million on. Another point is by the time Panthers are hitting their prime, he would have taken snaps away from young WRs/TEs/RBs. "Thus" in the long term, hurting the teams new future "window."  But I dare think of the monkey poo of a offense the Panthers had without him the past 2 years. Lack of talent leads to many problems, including paying a 35 year old to be somewhat respectable. Hes one of few that cared enough and made a effort. Plus you know he's done great stuff in many other ways for the team, community juggernaut, leadership, etc.  Judgement is for AT and his 3 year panther career!!
    • But it has gotten a little wacky. RBs-https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/_/position/rb     A couple months ago iggles made Bark the highest guaranteed RB, jeanty was until then. That's what matters the guarantee. A rookie never played a down was the leader, until iggles howie made things right.  If a safety gets drafted in the top 8 or so, he would have the highest money too or very close to it.    Add in TEs and C too.    Even with the fixed %, the numbers are getting too much for a player that's not proven themselves.     Plus anytime a QB is drafted it screws up the contracts for players around and if next year a punter gets drafted at the same 90th spot, they want the same contract with the 5.7% increase. Teams would be laughing.    Its just reached this point. Another 10 years and I bet the vets will be crying.
