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

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!

      Inappropriate relationship with a team staffer, followed up with some stalking behavior, and ultimately a felony home invasion charge from a visit at her apartment that culminated in him threatening her life and his as well.
