Zane Gonzalez better give up number 5 or we better cut his ass before week 7. Stephon wore number 5 at USC and South Pointe High.

Unfortunately, players can't change their numbers during the season. #25 is available as is #9. 

Don't really care which number he chooses, I just want to see him out on the field.

I can imagine Eazy-E's reaction to that knowledge would be "WTF REALLY?". 

As is mine as I did not know that players aren't allowed to do this.

Jesus Christ, what does our Media Officer do?!

They should have run in and rescued Stephon 5 minutes into that interview. What inane questions that he can't answer honestly. "Would you have signed here? / Do you want to sort out your contract before taking the field? / What do you think of your new teammates and how talented are they?"

Dude has LITERALLY just got here.

They ask these same stupid questions every time we acquire a player. Like they know this dude just walked into the building. Like they were there snapping pictures of him coming into the facilities. YOU KNOW HE JUST WALKED UP. 

They are just looking for any little slip up or whatever that they can misconstrue to stir up some drama or whatever. Get their clickbaity headlines and what not. People say these players don't seem happy to be here but really they just don't want to talk to the media. Why would they?

I liked the questions "have you talked to Cam Newton?  What does he think or have to say about the Panthers?" 🤣

Him and stephon are really tight. I think that was a legitimate question.

all media asks these types of questions of every team it’s not just Charlotte and the panthers.

They read the Huddle and they read Twitter and just try to respond to base level chatter. Sports Media is responsive now. They are not interested leading informed discussions. Though the demands of needing to have hourly takes on everything is an impossible task so I see why it has come to this. 

Just one media member not beholden to Twitter who could provide something thoughtful and researched would be nice.

Those reporters know Cam Newton is a sensitive subject.  I think that it was more of a fishing question than you give it credit for.  Whether he's talked to Cam in the last 24 hours or not, I think his answer was wise.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
