Did you not see the Texans game last week?

"terms of injuries" = CMC/HORN

"in game" = Team played like sh-t after CMC went down

 

this team has never even played down 3 points on the season though.   I think that might be the in game adversity he was referencing.   

How does Darnold play down 10 early for example?   Is he going to keep playing smart? We still haven't seen a lot with this group.   That's coaches too.

Fair point...I was wrong   

I was calling from memory and confused with the games when Cam was here (3-4).

Hey, have you e-v-e-r admitted to being wrong on this site?

 

Sure, when I have been.

That's not something that happens too often when I'm debating with you, though.

Actually so far, pretty much never.

Another bald faced lie from you!  (actually, several)

Who am I today?  Sanjay?  Chuck?  Hearing other voices today?

I did see the Texans game, that wasn't adversity.

Adversity is starting the game with your best player in street clothes and your shutdown corner at home and (likely) out for the season.

In game is being behind and showing the stones to turn it around.

We've done none of that.

Well then he's got a different opinion on what adversity is.

The Panthers faced their first true adversity on Thursday night and got through it with flying colors.

Being without CMC and HORN going into this game isn't really adversity because they've had 10 full days to PREPARE for this as opposed to just losing them in-game out of nowhere (THAT was Adversity).

 

And going back to your point, if the team is down, I think Sam continues to play WITHIN the system no matter what.  I don't see him start being reckless like he was in NY.

Outside of their 95 Super Bowl run, the Cowboys are 4-10 in the playoffs, with two of those losses coming from...guess who?

The only thing that bugs me is that we lose to them in the regular season only to shitkick them in the playoffs.  (Except Thanksgiving, that was a righteous beat down from the heavens).

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
