Baker, Baker, Baker and your favorite winning NFL franchise the Browns. Hi how you doing. Sounds like you could start a ripp hate thread.

I bet more people hate Rhule than anything I have to say. Plus, your unrealistic love for Baker, Baker, Baker is true bottom feeding.

Good day!

 

You aren't worth a thread. I loved me some Delhomme and I loved Cam and hoping Baker is the next one in line. If not him then Corral in a few.  As a Panther fan I wish good things for all our boys. That is why you are a troll.  I don't understand supposed Panther fans hoping our players or staff suck and fail.  And no I don't need a lame explanation.

fyi Whoever they wavie form their edge group, wouldnt shock me to see panthers make a claim. was some smoke about A.J. Epenesa getting cut(i dont buy it)

Yea he’s apparently been much improved this camp. Von Miller lit a fire.

Honest question… I’ve done no prior research….  How many teams in preseason game 2 and 3 played their 1s vs the other team’s 1s? I feel like I’ve seen a lot of 1s vs 2s

To me that looks like 50/50, mostly bad/rebuilding teams playing starters this week, better/more established teams did it last week. Bills put up 42 points last week and said we're good. Don't care to debate on specifics of who and why. It's more about if our starters look average/bad against the Bills 2nd team

Haha come on dude, I literally posted the team-by-team breakdown earlier in this thread as far as who rested vs. played their starters last week. Your assessment is quite wrong btw - out of the 14 playoff teams last year, 10 of them rested their starters last week (Packers, Rams, Raiders, 49ers, Bucs, Titans, Eagles, Bengals, Cardinals, Cowboys) and 4 of them played starters (Bills, Chiefs, Patriots, Steelers). It seems like the “better/more established teams” rested them last week.

Why are we talking about what playoff teams are doing? We got swept by the vaunted NFCE last season and all you want to do is suck Rhule's dick.

Bills and Chiefs game was better than the Super Bowl, but do your thing

Well I'm just saying but the preseason overreaction thing with Panthers fans has been going on for years so yeah.

Rhule is not free from being criticize but do you think people criticizing him on this particular issue is a little bit over the top?

It's common knowledge that teams usually play starters in game 2 (game 3 in 4 game preseason) so that starters have time to rest, and any injuries can either be mended or the gameplan can be adjusted. I don't know why our fans are shielding Rhule for this oddball decision to play starters int he last game of the preseason, giving him less time to adjust going into the first game of the regular season.

Reading is fundamental. I don't think you read where someone posted the breakdown of teams that didn't play their starters last week. Hell, the Rams didn't play their starters at all last year in all 3 pre season games after getting a new QB in Stafford and won the whole damn thing.

Of course it's over the top that's the good and bad of fan communities. But people bashed Rivera for things every single preseason too.

I went back did a look through as well, it honestly looks like a pre-determined pattern. I know that the owners get to pick and chooose who they play against in the preseason based on their relationships. From what I am seeing across the league, its not a far fetched concept that these teams are agreeing to play their 1s against the other teams 2s. It's too consistent across the league to be a coincidence.

Lol so triggered...you coming from Facebook discourse actually explains so much.  Don't you guys need to wear helmets just to post over there?

Please, for the last time keep your Rhule FanFic to yourself.  Nobody wants to imagine Rhule receiving fellatio except you.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
