this is crap. he initiated his block when the defender was visible coming through the hole. after he started going down to make the block, the lineman reached over and shoved the defender in the shoulder just before Dewill make contact. its not like the lineman was fully engaged and dewill just cut him down.

BS CALL!

That call was BS.

Wasn't there another BS call towards the end of the game? I, at that point had 1 or 10 too many beers and all I remember about it is giving the ref the bird, yes he saw it, can't remember the ill call though.

Yeah that other BS call was roughing the QB against the Panthers. It's stupid.

well as you all know there's such a heated debate right now about concussions in the NFL and having long term effects on players.

All these fines are simply a way of protecting the players to the best of Roger Goodell's ability. He's facing a lot of scrutiny and that's the reason why we've been seeing more fines than we ever have.

      Panthers Preseason

      Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
