Hello,

In the eve of Coronoavirus, political misadventure, civil unrest etc. I am wanting to know if the Panthers are going to hold a mini-camp? Also, what are the dates for OTA's, and Training Camp? I have not seen any updates on these.

Looking at what the type of rules the NBA is placing on players for their Orlando bubble, I think the NFL is going to have a very hard time starting anytime soon.  Imagine having to test 90+ players everyday while closely monitoring their outside activities.  It's going to be a nightmare to enforce.

Why don't they just do what the people in the medical field do. They get temp checked everyday, and screened.

Fauci yesterday:

Quote

"Unless players are essentially in a bubble -- insulated from the community and they are tested nearly every day -- it would be very hard to see how football is able to be played this fall," Fauci said. "If there is a second wave, which is certainly a possibility and which would be complicated by the predictable flu season, football may not happen this year."

I feel like any team contact sports are not gonna happen this calendar year.

Good thing NASCAR picked a good time to stop being awful, so I have SOMETHING to watch.

I hope they get to play this year.  

That being said, it might actually be a good thing for the panthers if they don't, and then we get to draft from the same position as last year.  

I think we were likely heading for an even higher pick.

I think it's pretty likely. Football and basketball have the big issue of their seasons coinciding quite well with peak cold/flu season.  This poo is gonna BOOM this fall and winter.

I think we will likely be better than last year.  Better defense (not that better than last year is setting the bar that high), and if TB stays healthy, better at qb.  

 

I haven't looked buy I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we're the Vegas underdog in every single game this coming season. Having an all new very NFL inexperienced coaching staff trying to install all new systems in a very different and abbreviated off-season environment isn't going to do us any favors either.

I think it's all a moot point anyway. This season ain't happening.

Lottery like the NHL did in 2005 following a lockout with a generational player in Crosby in that next draft. Imagine if they did that, we won, and got Lawrence without ever having to tank...

If NFL did a lottery, Dallas would win.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By Davidson Deac II · Posted

      Agreed.  Unless a DE is a Julius Peppers type, it takes a couple of years to really develope.  I am hoping we can get one to go with Prince and Scourton.  Or another Interior Dlineman might work as well.

      Great work Dan. This is the first time in a long time heading into day 1 of the draft that I don’t care which way we go.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I don't think it's about Bryce's ego. I think it's about Tepper's. Bryce was Tepper's draft pick. Everything that's been done has been to protect the image.  New HC with a shiny contract fired after he loses interest immediately after he supposedly drafted his guy. He can't make an offense for him because he's the QB that fits his style of offense. Bryce's rookie season is one of the worst in history. It was obvious he wasn't ready. He was named starter without any real camp competition. No real preseason reps. Coach keeps playing him despite terrible play.  A new coach and GM are hired on the condition that Bryce is the guy. No searching for a new QB. It's Bryce or else.  Bryce is benched year 2 for multiple games, replaced by Dalton who stunk it up proving he's washed up, then Bryce comes back in after Dalton injures his thumb and finishes the season. Dalton's contract is up, plenty of younger, higher upside FAs available. Dalton is brought back 2 years guaranteed as a "mentor". Jack Plummer, so bad in 24', brought back to camp in 25' and lo and behold, he's still terrible and has no business being on a field.  Other QBs brought in, the most recognizable being Hooker. All those brought in so bad even the PS can't hold them.  And now, after 3 years of bottom tier QB performance, with Dan saying we need to improve our QB room, we bring in a QB that's not passed for over 2500 yards in either of his 2 seasons as a starter, before he's benched and sent to the life of being a backup.  The common denominator in all of this is there's never been any real competition here, even when it was justified. After last year, it's debatable if he's starting QB material. Good moments and horrific moments. From one minute to the next, you don't know what you're gonna get.  So if you ask yourself why some of us feel bringing in KP is a joke, it's because it looks how it's always looked. That everything being done is to prove that David Tepper was right when he made the choice to draft Bryce and everything done since has been to protect that decision. Bringing in another QB with even the potential to challenge Bryce was always out of the question.
