Pretty sure you’ve made several comments about us not taking Fields over Horn.  

Sorry, but you have without a doubt been overtly negative most of the time.  If you put half the effort into focusing on the positive as you do exercising your moderator power, you’d be much more tolerable.  

He is very pesimistic... but there is a lot on this message board that are like that. Just got to take it in doses.

The Stains had an amazing 321 yards of total offense, don't get it twisted that game was more about the Packers lethargy. Also Jones-Brown are the reason 2.1 YPC against any NFL is good run D.

Right but Carolina hasn't manhandled the Saints like that in years is all I'm saying. We should have done to the Jets what they did to the Packers truthfully.

Zero percent chance if we play like we did today. I’m so sick of the Saints but that’s what you get when you have a competent coach and play caller. Either our coaching staff must make a big leap this year or Tepper needs to wipe it clean and find someone who can. Im sick of this team settling for mediocrity and being an afterthought

It’s a QB driven league and we had two high end prospects fall in our laps.   

you really got an issue with people thinking a team allegedly in rebuild mode should draft….a QB?

He wasn't always like that wayyyy back in the day on the scout forums he was even keel.

Yeah, I would've taken Fields. That doesn't mean I don't like Horn or that I don't expect him to do well.

The overall direction of the franchise hasn't been very positive lately. When it turns positive I'll get more positive.

Exactly.  That is what worries me most is that we allowed a bottom dwelling Jets team hang around and almost mount a comeback.  What does that say about the Panthers coaching staff?

Payton is a proven commodity and the Saints have quite a bit of talent to boot.

I'm not saying the Panthers don't stand a chance, but they're gonna have to play a much better/smarter game next weekend.

It was hard to tell that the Packers were playing football. LaFleur has a locker room problem IMO.

We can win. Brady needs to put his big boy hat on and call plays Payton won't be expecting. Defense needs to disguise, disguise, disguise and never play soft.  Looks like our new PR took this game to get comfortable and finally stopped hesitating. He needs to keep doing that. It'll be our entire team - coaches and players - being on the same page and outplaying evil wizard Payton for 60 minutes.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
