Joey Slye - I thought you looked cool with your swole arms and tats and you had so much potential to kick super long FGs for this team.

So it didn’t work out here on the Panthers but I GUARANTEE you will get another chance probably on the Bears or something. Look at what happened to Graham Gano - dude got cut from the Redskins and everyone was calling him OH NO GANO because he sucked. Then he got another chance fixed his sh*t and became one of the best kickers in the NFL.

Keep your head up, get your confidence back and go be a good kicker for another team and prove the Panthers were wrong and that’s all you can do.

It’s be one thing if Smith was speaking for himself but it’s almost seems like he’s relishing Slye’s yips. just feels wrong from an official Panthers announcer. Everyone can see it, no reason to rub it in. 

No wonder your last name is LaFell!!!  We think it...SMITTY speaks it!!!  TRUTH SON!

I'm sure Smitty's commentary was not as soft as the Panthers would have liked it to be, but I don't think Smitty was trying to be just mean there.

I think he's keeping it real about how physically and mentally abusive this violent sport that we all enjoy, can be

He said for the guy to go to a 24 hr store and get boxes and tape. To reserve the service elevator at The Vue. 89 wasn’t being subtle lol

One of the best legs I have ever seen but just can’t get his accuracy down.

For the record Slye’s first two years are on par with the first two years of some of the best kickers in the league.

It’s matter of if he can get it together or not and if anyone wants to give home the chance and more importantly the time which is a huge ask/risk for the kicker position.

I think we need someone more reliable even if they have absolutely no chance at making a 60 yarder.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      By frankw · Posted

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
