Interesting observation

Short version is that the same officiating crew who last week flagged DJ Moore for taking off his helmet neglected to flag Jalen Ramsey this week for the same thing.  I didn't catch that game, and the incident isn't on the highlights.  But seriously, at what point does the NFL actually do something?

My main concern is that the NFL will do something.  Every time they address a rule or situation, they seem to somehow make it worse.

After last week, I would not be at all surprised to learn that they sent an interpretation to the officials reversing a previous interpretation, and that was why last week's penalty was nothing this week.

I honestly don't think they have managed to touch the rule book, provide interpretations, or "points of emphasis" since the Rozelle days without either making a situation worse or creating a problem where there was none to start with.

Did Jalen throw his helmet?

Something neglected by the Huddle is DJ not only removed his helmet but threw it.

We were down 42-7 to the Bengals in the 4th quarter yesterday.  We didn't need to win that last game.  All these losses are doing are helping us reach our ultimate goal of a young, franchise QB on a rookie deal.  

We have one.

His name is Matt Corral

For how much you talk bad about running QBs, how on earth are you sold on Matt Corral?

 

I brought this to his attention in another thread so he has used his own random classification system to magically make Corral a "mobile" QB which he is ok with.  I mean Ole Miss called running plays for him all the time in the RPO, but that doesn't matter....

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
