I remember after Oher was released for his nagging concussion issues he went on a Twitter rant about the excessive use and push of drugs to 'get better' for himself and how it hurt him even worse mentally.  This could be telling as well...

Good point I forgot about that.

The same thing happened when the feds moved on Vick.  It changed from a "distraction" to "oh poo" overnight.

Feds have already asked 10+ lawyers/judges local&big-time how they are looking with the mountain of evidence. Most times they have YEARS of it, along with people on the inside. They even pick out the weakest ones or ones with the most to lose(kids, $$$, etc etc), have 50 charges waiting, grab them up and "arrest" them. Then the screwing starts,- "we can make ALLLLlll of this go away, if you do this simple task ______ " for us.......o and sign these papers as well......

They dont make any mistakes and you are DONE if they are busting down doors. They have spent millions and unless you have better lawyers(LOLOL)/beyond lucky(why the arrest then??) or have some real proof that was over-looked(big doubt). They have you dead to rights.

Okay with that Gano post I really wanna know. 

 

The three biggest offenses to me were:

  • Why was Davis allowed to run without the brace when his ACL tear took place
  • Why did they allow Beason to play in the home opener of 2011?
  • Why did Cam's shoulder completely deteriorate after it seemed to be recovering after the 2017 season?

The answer to #3 is TJ Watt. Cam’s shoulder was fine in 2018 until Watt destroyed it with his helmet. His arm wasn’t right after that and got worse through the season.

Still think that should have been looked into more. They basically lied for 6 games saying his shoulder was fine, then when Cam was like “no it wasn’t “ they were like “gasp, we didn’t know”.

Still say we would have made the playoffs that year if we started Allen or Heineke sooner. Would have at least won the Saints game.

In the Amazon series you can hear him complaining about the pain before the Steelers blowout game and the lack of zip was noticeable early in the year.  Which leads me to wonder, were they not assertive or incompetent with him going into the offseason after 2017 when he was throwing darts at the end of the season.

Everyone claiming roids and bringing up 2003. That was a SC doctor who gave roids to the OL/team. One player visited him, told him what was wrong, the SC doc gave him roids. Snowball effect happened, just like any other locker-room. If a player is in great shape& passing test while taking supplement YXgator blood, before long everyone else is....

And remember when he had to be pulled before halftime of the Ravens game for a hail mary to put in Heinecke(didn't end up being a hail mary cuz Olsen got open on the sideline to get into FG range, but point stands)? Yeah that was before the Steelers game. This stupid ass TJ Watt narrative needs to die. His shoulder was clearly messed up prior to it.

it was the eagles game in 2018 when he fell face first onto it.

    • 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.
