Insight on Brady to Tampa, Belichick, Bill O'Brien and more

Trust me when I say there's a lot of interesting stuff in this piece.

Revelations from "It's better to be feared"

Mind you, the content is only tangentially Panthers related (lots of talk about Spygate) but based on what I read I'd expect there'll be some Panthers discussion to be found in the book when it comes out.

Included within the article though is some hysterical stuff about Roger Goodell, Eric Mangini and Bill O'Brien plus Tom Brady sounding like he just wants a hug.

Brady over Belicheck ALL DAY and twice on Sunday. Belicheck is a cheater, an asshole, terrible drafter,  and overrated. He bends more rules than the Catholic Church. 
 

bet old Belicheat would have a different career narrative if it weren’t for TB12. 

This.

And what I don't understand is, if Kraft & Goodell/Belicheat & Goodell are as close as they appear to be, why the hell aren't the other 31 teams ready to burn Goodell at the stake?  Surely there's some other shmuck that can continue making them money hand over fist without the blatantly obvious favoritism.

Goodell has no power.  He’s the bullet proof shield in front of the owners.  He takes the punishment.  That’s why they pay him so much.

NFL franchises are pretty decent investments even when the team sucks, I’m not sure how many owners even care about another owner getting a competitive advantage. You can sit on your hands and still make money. 
 

Maybe that sounds too apathetic but i feels good to say.

    • Also, the fact we are comparing this one to the 10 preseason tells me we are in for another horrible year. 
    • Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.
    • Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins
