YES,  10 days till our players get to hit someone other than teammates .   
YES,  we know preseason games are awful,  but better than Training Camp reports. 

Question.  Why is there 2 weeks ( 16 days ) between out last preseason game with Pittsburg ( Aug 27 )  and the jets visiting us on Sept 12 .  That seems like longer than normal

They shortened the preseason.

The removed a game. Seems like the length is still the same. Looks like the additional regular season game is adding time to the end of the season vs moving the start up. Makes sense, I guess. Give the same amount of practice time.

I can't wait for the first preseason game, and to then be reminded about a half into it that preseason really sucks and get antsy to see "real" football again.

Well, at least the wild overreactions on the Huddle will be entertaining 😐

Those are the most predictable thing ever. Watching the completely insane overreactions in the TC threads is always entertaining. "WE HAVE A TOP TEN DEFENSE!!!"  "SAM DARNOLD IS THE GREATEST QB IN PANTHERS HISTORY!"  "TERRACE MARSHALL IS OUR NEW #1 WR!"  "WE SHOULD MOVE JACKSON TO FS BECAUSE HE IS A BUM!"

To be fair, I think Terrence Marshall will actually be our number1 wr by the end of the season. He is by far the most physically gifted wr we have and he knows the offense and has more experience in our offense from LSU than the other guys.

I like Terrace Marshall as a player, I think he is going to be a valuable contributor to our team but there is no way I am going to buy into him being better than DJ Moore and Robby Anderson in his rookie season. The odds of that happening are pretty slim. This isn't LSU, this is the NFL. And Joe Brady was Passing Game Coordinator in 2019 for LSU. Marshall played that one year in his system. Same as Anderson and Moore.

Rookie…just hope he’s still on the field in December

does anyone know the reason we play Pittsburgh every year in the preseason? my buddy (pitt fan) and I joke about this every year. 

 

Jerry Richardson made that agreement with the Steelers because he was closed to Rooney family.  I'm guessing Tepper is sticking with it because he is also close to the Rooney family.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
