Let's see you create a thread every 4 and a half minutes this must be Carolina Chuck

It never takes long to figure out haha.  Really crazy how someone can come back so much and just never stop.

Also, Panthers didn’t believe that Simmons enjoys contact. 

I had heard several other people say this as well. Said that people assumed he would be a good fit a LB just because of his size but said that film showed him shying away from contact. 

Several scouts said that his MOST NATURAL position was likely safety, but because of his size he would be placed at OLB. 

 

I really liked Simmons but I also feel like he has a big 'JAG' potential simply due to be used wrong.

So he is more of a fish out of water than a jack of all trades

We are probably one of those teams that ask questions like: “Your mother and an evil dictator are drowning, but you can’t save your mom and you might be a homosexual, what do you do?” 

Im just saying how dumb some of those questions can get in these interviews bc one year, a team asked a guy if he was gay. So stupid.

That's what scared me the most with Simmons, you have to move him around, that's his unique ability. Guy has so much talent but he needs a smart defensive coordinator to get the most out of him.

    • Those last two plays before the last FG, we could have burned them so hard - but it is risky with even a better QB. But not sure they would have used that strategy against a better QB.  In any case Rico had no hope of breaking through that.   
    • One more win and it matches Wilks’ win total, he was the leader of the last 5-6 years. You have to go back to Tepper’s first year where Rivera won 7 to beat it. He won 5 the year he was fired.   
    • I watched a clip of all the offensive snaps. Young threw into some tight coverage and the guys made some plays on the ball. He also really missed some throws.  He has this middle of the field thing into a tight window pretty good and made three or four nice plays but he was just too inconsistent with his accuracy especially in the red zone. Today and in general.    That Int where people were chastising Legette for ‘not fighting through the coverage’, he in no way could have gotten to that ball. IMO. I think he thought it was going to hit the ground and didn’t see the defender coming for it. But not sure what he could have done. The camera doesn’t show the spatial relationship very well, I think the ball was way off. maybe 6 feet or more off target to the inside of the field.  Rico is a beast. And a very good receiver.   That was my impression without dissecting and rewinding, just letting the video roll. I did rewind the int two or three times to look at that one.
