Not good. League about to come down on us if true

Highly doubt it. It never even came to the team facility. Players going out on their own and getting it during the bye is their problem. Much different than the team being responsible for protocols being broken at the team facility.

Exactly.  Panthers organization will not be punished at all nor should they be. Players should.

Exactly. Hopefully they just suspend some players and we have to play this websites owner at QB.

Players probably should be punished but won’t. There are no rules that prohibit them from gathering outside the facility. The NFLPA would appeal any punishment the league tries to hand out and win.

Well, this seems like a bunch of crazy talk.

The NFL can't punish the team for something players do on their own time outside the team facility.  In what world does anyone think that will fly?  The NFLPA would crush them.  Any court would crush them.  Heck, even the team itself might sue the NFL if they tried that.

Even the team doesn't really have any legal recourse against those players.  Again.  On their own time, outside team facilities.  Your employer has no say in what you do in those circumstances, and the Panthers are no different.

This isn't to say the team won't be pissed, privately.  I'm sure they will let those players know in no uncertain terms how stupid that was.  But we will likely never hear about it except as rumors.

Lol, look at y’all ready to crucify these guys for being close to each other during a “pandemic” , but every thing is fine when they’re tackling and sweating on each other during a football game, as long as it’s for your entertainment. Hypocrites. 

All of this

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
