I get that with preseason games but I feel these practices show a lot more overall such as talent and depth.

Its mainly to show dont overact, just 70 minutes into the first joint practice. Coaching should improve his troops and tomorrow be 180. Indy's D is one of the best in the league, we already knew the OL is lacking.... I just dont want injuries and maybe put a bug in Ballard's ear about trading for a LB...

I should know better than try the impossible tho, my bad.

Guys, no reason to flip poo. It's a process. Any reasonable person knew that "top 10 defense" talk was ridiculous. 

Baby steps. If we have across the board improvements on that unit over the course of the season, at least we are on the right path. 

Seems like a mixed bag overall but basically what I think the more reasonable Panther fans expected. Some good, some bad. Still a work in progress and that's okay.

Isn't the majority of Indy's starting DL sitting out today with injury?

Let’s compare us to the Patriots. Nice logic.

I believe the panthers also had a awful pre-season and went 12-4 during the season. Do you remember that? It have been the SB year, but they looked lost til the season started. I believe a joint practice was part of it too.

It wouldn't matter that much. Our OL was going to look shaky no matter what. 

This should literally shock zero people.

I'd feel better if we had some semblance of a lineup in place. These guys need to have as much time as possible to gel. That we still seem to be in the midst of figuring out who's gonna be playing and where is concerning.

There was a list of players eailer in this thread- Nelson, Wertz, Kelly, and couple other key players out. But I didnt see starting DL, but I dont know if the coaches gave them the day off or not. I wanted to see Buckner vs panthers OL, but no luck so far...

Unofficial final numbers today: Sam Ehlinger 13-16, 3 TDs, sack; Jacob Eason 8-11, TD, 3 sacks

I think those numbers aren't that good if our DL is allowed to hit them. We probably still have a lot of work to do on the back end of the D but that DL will be fierce all year long.

    • You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful. 
    • Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.
    • On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
