Love this quote

“My parents always taught me to be a leader,” McCoy said. “But in the midst of working to be a leader, I learned that you have to serve before you can lead. Before I know what type of leader I need to be, I need to learn how to serve my teammates.”

So glad this guy is a Panther!

 

Oh and his NFL peers have named him the 75th best player in the league.

man, reading everything about what he did today, all I kept thinking was, "man, I hope we can keep him fir the rest of his career."  I've always been a big fan of his as a person even though he played for a division rival, he has always embodied class...  and as an aside, just happens to be an outstanding football player too.

I know he’s a little older now but what are some reasonable stats for McCoy this year 

sacks??

TFL??

Honestly he has more talent around him than he ever has, they could rush 3 and still get pressure. This could be a big year for him and KK

'potential'

The 2011 draft for the buck's made their D-line look like it was going to the the best in the league when they picked up Adrian Clayborn and Da'Quan Bowers with their 1st and second pick. They year before they drafted McCoy and Pierce so they went into the season with a heck of potential.. 

 

All that being said, I really like the potential of our pass rush this year. IF Butler plays to his potential guys will be fighting for playing time. Could be very exciting.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
