Lack of autograph availability is a huge deal for a lot of the people with kids who would normally go.

This. I feel like half the crowd goes to get autographs. @Zod did they enforce that, like, hardcore? If so, then I'd assume every camp day will be like today.

Just seeing the difference in DJ Moore's route running and seeing slight improvements to Darnold's game has me excited. And what I am hearing about Dan Arnold is making me drool everywhere since we had to deal with Ian "Big Threat" Thomas. 

 

he's kind of the forgotten weapon among the many we have.  And we have him under contract for 2 years at a total of 2.5 million.

After being with the Jets, Darnold has to be drooling along with you.

@Zod Did you see Ha Ha Clinton-Dix out there? Just interested had heard anything since they brought him in for a tryout. Thanks 

I think Matt Rhule mentioned some of the guys we tried out as being guys we would go to if someone were to get injured in camp or during the regular season. Guessing they weren't out there today.

Easy question... why the fug are they even at Wofford? I thought it was miserable the one and only time I went to camp down there, like in 1999 or something.

UNC Wilmington, Coastal Carolina, ECU... fug, anything's gotta be better than Spartanburg.

 

UNC-W would be interesting considering they don't have a football team.

You do realize it is hot in the South? Right? It's not just Hub City.

Love seeing the blurb on Sam.

 

when is the last time we didn’t have a QB that locked onto a WR

Did I time travel back to the Pickle's last year? You could easily say that neither Teddy nor Cam locked onto WRs. Not to the point that it made them bad QBs at least. Teddy probably went through his progressions too fast (and got to his checkdown), while Cam probably waited too long at times, neither were QBs that locked onto guys all game.

App State would seem like a great fit. Probably the coolest location that would work in the region. I just think Tepper is really hung up on this whole "one team two states" thing. He really wants to include SC in everything and Boone is a rock's throw from the VA and TN borders.

    • "If only Bryce were <height>", he'd <insert stupid thing here>" was the bit and in direct response to multiple posters ridiculously blaming Bryce (and only Bryce) for the punt returns vs. New England. :3 I understand that folks desire balance, hence the "Bryce stans vs. Bryce haters" narrative but it's abundantly clear that the only people going into threads just to talk about Bryce are the haters. Meanwhile, daring to disagree that Bryce was completely at fault for something that happened on special teams gets the "stan" label. Shoot, I'm sure folks lump me in as a Bryce stan (Brycen stan? Absolutely. Bryce stan? Nah) just because I have the audacity to look at what the rest of the team is and isn't doing. 😛  
    • PJ Walker is the only QB in the Tepper era the Panthers managed to find wins with.  Only QB w/ a winning record.    PJ had success in pro ball before the Panthers.  He he had NFL tools.    He just is consistent and unreliable.  PJ Walker is what you call a bad/poor man's gunslinger.  He can provide highs and lows both virtually guaranteed.  He is NFL depth.  Bryce Young hasn't proven to improve a teams chances of winning better than the PJ Walker tier of QBing. PJ Walker can do things Bryce Young can't......and that a problem     
    • There isn’t but the thing is the team/system/staff around the QB ultimately dictates how successful that QB can be. You have Baker getting released midseason here vs playing like a MVP on another team. Darnold on the Jets/Panthers vs Vikings/Seahawks. Geno Smith on the Jets vs the Seahawks vs the Raiders. Mac Jones is looking as good as Purdy on the 49ers. You have to build a roster, culture, and system for these guys.  Obviously the QB has to be the leader and help elevate the team, but we are seeing what moving a “bad” QB to a stable franchise looks like. Daniel Jones might be doing the same but it’s too early to tell.
