Adam Schefter: NFLPA is filing a grievance vs Panthers for the hardness of the playing field last Saturday

It’s a league approved playing surface so not sure what we did wrong. I agree we should go back to turf no question, but what was wrong with the field vs every other game we have played at home. We can’t control the cold and if the league approved that mess, owners will go with whatever is more profitable vs player safety which is the messed up part

I mean, it was cold as hell. Of course the field was rock hard. Our field is trash. That's well established. Way too many players - our own and others - have complained about it for it not to be true. But a field being hard on sustained subfreezing temps isn't a legit complaint. That's just the nature of reality.

Actually it's a dumb grievance. It just speaks to the pussification of some of these modern NFL players.

Shaq Thompson has publicly voiced his issue with grass vs turf at BOA. Is he one of those pussies?

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
