Another good Darnold pass.

Welp, Terrace is taking his job, quickly.😂

Also, as a guy who was vocal about my lack of belief in Darnold, these passes have definitely increased my confidence in him by leaps and bounds.  I know it's practice, but again, we didn't see any throws this deep or accurate all of last season.  It's refreshing, and encouraging.

Darnold will be as good as the OL---we know he can put the ball where it needs to be when it needs to be there.  And he, unlike Teddy, does not refer to deep passes as "Par threes." Just needs time.  So watch Christensen's development--I think it could be key. 

If Horn becomes the shut down corner he can be, and Marshall becomes a star (LSU WRs do well in the NFL), and Darnold becomes the #3 overall pick talent he is, Fitterer gets my vote for GM of the year.

What comes after "Contributor?"  I am blazing a path to glory.

I think folks around here are just stoked to have a young QB here with a good arm.  Its been a while...

It's only been since Cam left. That really wasn't that long ago. It only feels like a million years because we have sucked so much since then.

Remember when we had threads sarcastically predicting that the anti-Darnold folks would dramatically overreact to incomplete passes?

Notice how the exact opposite of that is happening?

We have graduated from mindlessly debating mock seasons and articles ranking teams and draft picks down to the long snapper before anyone even stepped on the practice field. 

Shallow speculation to over reacting in Panther land only means on thing. The season is upon us. I’ll take it.

      Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
