Bailey interviewed Corey Miller on WFNZ a few minutes ago and had some choice comments about how he felt the Panthers treated his son --- he was pissed.

Straight out said Christian was cut because he chose to sit out last year...

...also said Brian Burns was the only linebacker on the roster who had played better than Christian during training camp.

 

Corey Miller is a self-absorbed douchebag and loser. No one should care what he has to say.

Sounds like a loving dad talking. Miller was my fav 2019 draft pick mainly cause of the value. He just was always nicked and when healthy did not show much. Its a performance deal. 

Yeah, he's not exactly the most objective observer in this situation.

Damn I hope that bench score was an off day. Otherwise in youtube clips he definitely handles a ball rush a lot better than Elflein

Im not a big bench guy, but that was awful low. Wide zone rewards a more athletic player........the issue is red-zone/goal-line.........which the panthers were 31st in....maybe thats the reason for carrying 18 TEs, hmmm...

Never was a ELf guy, most times hes playing a dogs fav toy role for DLmen. He looks weak, especially core-wise. I did see were he had a thumb injury that killed his lifting, but for 3 years he gets beat-up badly. Again hopeful the wide zone helps him some, his strength is pulling and out in space.......one vs one goal-line he is at a huge dis-advantage.

PJ is a competent XFL QB, but that’s about where it ends.

 

Brayvion Roy is a waste of a roster spot, as is Colin Thompson. All three guys are low floor, low ceiling guys.

Agreed on Roy. He’s a dime a dozen time space eater who takes up a blocker so other guys can make plays. Replaceable spot.

It may have just been me but I hadnt heard anything about Miller during camp. Also didnt see him flash much in the preseason.

I never thought he was that great but I guarantee Ron and Hurney are probably bringing him to WFT

When I focused on Roy in goal line, he was getting moved around like a patio umbrella in a hurricane.  It was so bad, I let that one play influence my entire opinion of him.

They like finding good skill sets and coaching them up.  Morgan--has the size and the tools, but just was not part of that Bowling Green/Florida International QB pipeline to the NFL...I think Jordan is a good athlete that MIGHT be out of position at Cincy--he could be a center or maybe he is more of a pure RG if that makes any sense....But in the wide zone, I expect him to be better than what he was at Cincy.

Erving--good athlete, can play all 5 OL positions.

Elflein--good athlete, can play G/C.

Christensen--good athlete, can play 4 OL positions (questionably)

We are seeing a pattern, but will they keep Darnold safe?  I expect to see a lot of running the football, lotta short passes, not a lotta deep passes. Sounds like Bridgewater, but Darnold was hitting the WRs in stride so they could gain YACs. 

Fitterer---if you can't pick an OL, get someone in who can.  We need to protect Darnold if we are going to succeed.

He’s a Rhule guy who tows the party line so he might be a tough cut. At least he’s not starting this year for sure.

I noticed that about OL and the team in general, they target athletic profiles....yea D brown is a out-liner. Still target athletic players or "football"(play anywhere, run though wall types etc) players. Seen the panthers claimed him, I headed to the google machine to check out the RAS score...... no surprise its high. 

The big issue is coaching up this group of mis-fits that have struggled/injury-prone/young/got bad coaching/etc. I think Pat Meyer is in WAAAAYY over his head with this task. If hes able to make a average OL form this clay, give that man all the raises!!

    • Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster. 
    • Say what you want, but last year Bryce gave Carolina the best QB-play we've seen a very long time. A very long time. Often with rookies at WR and TE, and a RB not known for his receiving abilities. There is much reason for optimism with added weapons, and consistency/ chemistry on the offensive line and coaching staff. Now if the defense can get to average instead of a heaping lump of dog doo, this team should win a lot more games. This season is a turn the corner season. Next season is the year to press the accelerator to the floor.
    • I hope after last preseason our 1st team offense sees at least a few more snaps.
