Sam not sliding got Sam hurt...

Sam was trying to go for the score. That’s what he gets paid to do. Play football. It would have been an easy TD run if Cam Erving had made the block on Oluokun!

Yeah, Sam is such an idiot. Who is dumb enough to want to make a play in that situation?

 

And if Sam had slid, you'd probably call him out for not going for it.

 

Ah Goob, never change dude.

Hubbard said that they scored the TD for Sam…..but, it was probably a lie, or he was simply stating that because he felt he had to say that.

Actually when I suggested the defender be penalized for leading with the helmet on that play you attacked me. Who is really moving the goal posts here? You aren't making much sense.

 

Damm dude, someone questions your thought process and you get all up in the feels. And once again you have moved the goalpost.

 

You're a trip. You act all high and mighty, then get so defensive when questioned. No wonder you are perfectly alright with calling Sam expendable. You never have to defend your stance.

Had Erving ran up the field to block, not knowing if the play was run or pass,RPOs, oline told to jog up field... he could've been called for illegal man down field which would have neglect Darnold's run...a repeat of downs plus ur QB hurt. Darnold chose not to slide because he felt he was Derrick Henry in a split sec.

it was a read option run play, not an run pass option play

My opinion of Cam is strictly off field….and no, not because I think he’s a bad guy. Who said anything about Sam’s on field performance?  The criticism he has received here is just, but like anything else, how you chose your words reflect your character….I understand this is the new culture, idolize those that mock the disabled, and war heroes when they die, but I thought that southerners self promote their “good manners and southern hospitality”?

I think he’ll (Sam) make a great backup somewhere with a good line….and saying that, isn’t exactly complimentary about his play.  I think I like the Panthers, and it will be much easier to cheer for them once Sam is gone, hopefully, to a good franchise.  Hope you don’t lose too much in letting him go.

Off the field as in what if you don't mind me asking? I can agree with you about certain tendencies now within our culture due to social media. But I myself do not want to see anyone injured. If you were expecting good manners I've got news for you. I saw many Panthers fans gritting their teeth for a decade every time Newton won a game and then when we lost all hell broke loose. In that regard honestly people have been pretty easy going on Sam there are still some here who are unwavering in their belief in his abilities and their opinion. I have no idea what the future holds for Sam but the Panthers have and will look out for him he is financially secure. I just hope next offseason we have a plan A B and C if necessary at quarterback because this year we blew it.

Chuba's comments are exactly why I do not believe the problems with drops is players "checking out" of the offense because of Darnold (and it would have started in training camp).  Darnold is part of our problem, I'm sure DJ and Robby agree, but I don't think they're sitting on the sidelines deciding not to give effort...

Imagine DJ Moore on the sidelines thinking... I know Im up for a contract here soon but I really dont like sam darnold.  Im gonna go out there and half ass it the rest of he game, make HIM look bad.  That'll show him!!

It’s not just about how a man responds to wins, it’s how he loses….many a great competitor and men that hate to lose know they must man up and face that loss….like a man.  Do you not think some of that is also reason he hasn’t been picked up, the drama that surrounds him?

The girl comment to that reporter was cringeworthy.  Not a fan of the foppish dress, but it’s his right, his money, and he’s not a bad person, just a little self absorbed.

What is often forgotten is; these guys are human beings. With families, and hopes and dreams. Yet far too many fans treat them like possessions. Chew them up, and spit them out. With no regards to the player

 

Expendable, coward, and dumb are words I have read in just the last 2 days. After a win. 

 

And back to our regularly scheduled show. Complaining? Does it actually do a body good?

Cam never took losses well which I never had an issue with because I want players to win, although he didn't take the losses maturely all the time. 

I'd still rather have a QB that actually cared about winning and had some fire. We haven't had that since he left.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
