So far I've been wrong about Burns. Prior to the draft I thought he was currently too thin to make an immediate impact and greatly benefited from the talent on that FSU defense. But the kid has an insane motor, violent hands, incredible bend and ridiculous speed. If this carries over to the regular season I'll gladly eat crow all of the way to the NFL Honors.

"violent hands" is a hell of a band name.

You don’t get comeback for missing like three games do you?

Plus Bell shouldnt get it imo since he held out, he could've played last year but he sat out.  He's not coming back from anything other than crying about his contract from his couch

Another interesting takeaway from the article: 18 different coaches got at least 1 vote for coach of the year. Notably missing from that list? Rivera. Not saying I expect him to win it, but when over half of the coaches have at least one vote, it is a little odd that 2x coach of the year Rivera doesn't even merit one. Probably a reflection of the fact that not many people expect a big year from us.

There’s no requirement of a minimum missed games, plus everyone knew he was hobbled for more than half the season. And if Bell can get a buncha votes when he simply decided not to play because of money, I think Cam is definitely deserving...

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
