Key to the offence: Brady Christensen

I watched Fitterer's interview the other day and he spoke a few times about Brady and how important his role will be. So, I've been thinking a lot about this, if he is ready to go and can take a starting spot (T/G) we actually could develop into a very dangerous o-line. 

Our line was so bad last year, we didnt have any chance in games. It really didnt matter who was throwing the ball we were getting blown up every play. 

It all starts at the line and we have not had a good one for years. Now, finally, it looks like we could make that a team strength. 

 

Im excited. The team is getting better. If a QB shows up for us we will make things messy in the NFC. 

LFG!!!

Listen....this isn't Great Britain, we use an "s" in "offence."

Some years back, I had to work July 4th. One of my colleagues who was also there took a call from a British guy.

After the guy hung up, my coworker complained.

"Man, why is this British guy calling in today? Doesn't he know it's July 4th?"

I gently said, "They don't really celebrate that in England. It's... actually kind of a sore spot." 😕

If Brady can actually hold down the LT spot allowing Icky to smash at LG, then that would be awesome.

I would be happy with both of them locking down a spot but it would make me cringe thinking about Icky being licked number 6 overall, 1st offensive player drafted, prototype LT going into LG. That seems like the ultimate Rhule move but I see no way it happens that way

I just gave you the D making you pull off what not many have accomplished. The 5-fecta of emoticons. Congrats my fellow Panther lover.

I am a BIG Christensen fan. I think he has potential to be a very good offensive lineman. He is extremely athletic and smart. Only thing screwing him up right now is Rhule trying to play him at every oline position and not starting him over freaking Michael Jordan and Cam Erving.....Stick him at one spot and he will thrive. Now, if that spot is guard (which it should be) now that we have Icky he will take a year probably and need to gain some weight, but his potential is very high to me.

I’ve spent the 4th of July in London a couple years ago…not a single firework. Sad. Probably had some this year though with their buffoon PM getting the boot.

He doesn't generate a lot of push because although he is a great athlete he is not very strong and his technique is still lacking.

He is definitely a project player.

Im not sure how a 26 year old player is considered a project.  I think at best he is going to be a good/great backup to have on your roster to play in a pinch.

Some linemen do have relatively long careers. If he develops he could have some time in the league as a high caliber player.

I don't see it happening but it is possible.

Age isn't really a part of the equation unless he's old enough to where he's physically limited.  Just because he's a few years older doesn't mean he's further along in his development than a 23-year-old second-year player.  It's about his experience and the level of coaching he has received, which are both on equal footing with NFL sophomores.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.

      I mean there is relevance to that. But I think much of it has to do with the fact that he is clearly likeable. But does that translate to a coach taking his position to the next level like those that have had staying power for many years like Spoelstra? And not for nothing but does how much someone is liked even matter? Across leagues with the Panthers Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney were universally well liked by players. Dave Canales is very well liked. I say you are what your record says. And the record says you got your ass handed to you by a fellow expansion team in the Magic in a game that was over at halftime and that same team went toe to toe with our nemesis who has been handing us L's for over a year now. And if Bam doesn't get his leg swept by LaMelo do we even get past the Heat? Again. It just all boils down to personal standards. I think newer and younger fans will love this. I just want to actually win a real playoff game fam 🤷‍♂️
