they have talked about his feet constantly... almost every conversation. Stating he needed to settle down. Brady said it, Rhule said it, Sean Ryan said it, and Steve Smith said it.

Smitty spoke the truth on Darnold's play in the preseason. On TV, you saw nice short to medium completions but he was pointing out open guys deep and pointing out problems with ball placement on certain passes. We saw some of those same things yesterday.

I liked his poise. I didn't see panic from him which is great. But there's still considerable work to be done.

Why the fug would you go away from a guy that's picking up 7+ yards everytime he touches the ball?!

We don't really need it. Sam stuck the ball into the FB's shoulder before he cleared. 

At some point, these guys might get tired of getting thrown under the bus covering for Darnold. The receivers were the problem all during camp and the joint practices. I don't think I've heard a single critical peep about Darnold from anyone in the organization.

Oh boy they sure look sick of him and his coddling:

Because workload management is a thing.  There's a lot of research around RBs with 400 touch seasons, and never quite being the same.  If you want CMC to last, he needs to be spelled a little more IMO.

Because he's coming off an injury plagued year and RBs have a long history of falling off a cliff at 1800 carries. We burn the CMC candle at both ends with his heavy use in the passing game. He already has over 1000 combined touches in barely over three seasons (52 games).

Carolina 19 - NY Jets 14

^Only stats that matter^

ok, was merely showing why a reporter noted Wilson's 2nd half as successful.   Considering someone else was shocked by the comment.  They played a good 2nd half.  We played a better 1st half.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
