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).

      Dan looking at a new Conerback!!!

      Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.

      I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
