Barkely looked like the #2 overall pick last week......talent-wise hes better than CHubb(top 5) who had his way....

Feels like a near repeat is on the menu- panthers struggle out the gate, Barkely goes off, panthers take their first lead in the 4th, gano hits a 50+ for the bad guys to win....

I mean, if we lose to the Giants I'm going to proposition Zod to turn the Tinderbox into a secret Buffalo Bills forum.   We can just live through them for a season and experience fun football.  You will hear a lot of familiar names.  Just get drunk enough and pretend it's the Panthers.

Hes like a better&bigger CMC, minus the route running. Always had injuries, OL, and coaching issues........but he looked *free* and down right scary....Titans are a legit tough-ass team, especially on D. It looked like his old college games.......I fuging hate it......about the only hope now is he gets nicked and has to miss a quarter or two...

I’ve started watching most other prime time games and enjoy watching competent play. It reminds me of the good ole days when every other year our Panthers we’re good.

Chubb has proven to be the superior back to Barkley, game in, game out, season-to-season. We don't know if this is Barkley's return to his first year, or if it was just week 1 defensive breakdowns. 

Hopefully the glaring run defense problems in week 1 lead to adjustments and clearer play in week 2.

It was a sizable enough problem even this coaching staff would have to be aware of it.

Chubb has run behind a better OL and been healthy.  

Both healthy and behind the same OL? I’ll take Barkley

      This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one.

      ESPN's All Quarter Century Team 2000-2025

      I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.

      Same thing I first thought but then I saw it was against Jacksonville and took about half a second of playing to know. I was at that game.  I can't tell you my level of excitement when I saw it was Delhomme instead of Peete who came out for the 2nd half. Delhomme has and will probably always be my favorite Panther.
