Wait what? We’re resting game 2 and playing game 3? Nothing we do with regime ever makes sense. They seem so reactionary to everything. 

Rhule said he rested the starters last game due to the back to back scrimmages against the Pats and noted that several players were banged up and needed recovery time. Makes perfect sense to me

Aren’t they practicing with Buffalo this week? Or did I make that up in my head?

I will not however rescind my question at hand.

Who is our QB? If Sam and Baker are in fact playing next week, it appears the NE week being the definite marker was farce or they can’t make up their minds.

Yikes 😳 

I mean, it HAS to be Baker. If it isn’t and I was Baker I would ask for an immediate release. And knowing his style, could see that happening. And then I can see most casual fans checking out before even game 1.

I can't believe we didn't pick a QB before 2 joint practices with the Pats. We're going to go into the season with the QB and O-line still working out the kinks because we wasted the last 2 weeks with fake competitions. I bet he's still gonna have Jordan out there next week alternating with BC and Corbett

It’s Mayfield and it’ll likely be announced tomorrow. 

Schedule wise and maybe it would be procedural, they formally announce before practice begins, as it’s the start of the practice week with a presser and release. I’d like to hope that happens for all open competitions spot.

This can’t linger into the final preseason week/prep for the real game 1

I think even Fitterer would bail at that point. He already seemed irritated about all this during his interview during the Pats game.

You know I didn’t catch any irritation from fitts, and last night at a party I was talking to about 5-6 panthers fans and they didn’t catch any irritation from fitts either. I have the game on VOD. Do you know at what point fitts was pissed? I want to go back and watch this.

Pretty sure fitts confirmed that we were moving forward with BC at guard. I couldn’t be misremembering though.

      LT Ikem Ekwonu wants to remain in Carolina long term but has no timeline for an extension

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Curious what his price is, but definitely think we need to resign him. Hard to find a quality tackle - he's definitely improved and having a stable guard in lewis beside him has helped a ton. Still needs to work on the false start and holding penalties though

      Yeah, you want actual Panthers fans to succeed. Same with poor Will Levis a few years ago. You just wish the local ACTUAL Panthers fans(very rare in the first place), pan out.  But, alas, it is what it is. I don't know if it is as simple as having Ikey switch to RT immediately. I think the cleanest switch would have been to attempt that for him as a LG. But, we spent a fuging shitload of dough on our IOL.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Seriously? You think we might have 4 or even 5 starters the next couple years from last year’s draft? Wallace and Legette were starters because of injuries and no good depth. We’ve already resigned Thielen and drafted TMac. I’d be shocked if Legette isn’t WR4 (snap/target/production wise) behind those two and Coker. I’m not Sure if Wallace will stay a starter with Rozeboom. Smith-Wade might be the likeliest starter for now because we didn’t draft a CB. We’ll see if he sticks. Sanders may also start but the starting TE is like being the tallest midget. We’ve had about 500ish receiving yards from TEs each of the past 3 years whether it was Thomas/Tremble or Tremble/Hurst or Tremble/Sanders. Honestly, if Evans can stay healthy, the fact that he can actually block (unlike Thomas who sucked but was called a blocking TE) and catch could make him the best starter we have at TE. Also, Brooks missing two of four rookie contract seasons and caused us to draft Etienne in the 4th and sign Dowdle. Sorry man, you’re smoking some serious hopium trying to justify last year’s draft as if it was good. We are one of the worst talented teams in the NFL over the past 7 seasons and sometimes that means that we get a lot of rookie contributors but it doesn’t mean it was a good draft. Until the rookies are actually above average starters it’s like going from Thomas to Tremble to Sanders to Evans. There’s no impact to our win total until one of them actually is more than just a starter because we have to play someone. One last nugget, we won’t be a playoff team if 25% of our starters are from the 2024 draft.
