Firefighters on Tuesday found NFL player Caleb Farley’s father dead in the rubble of a massive, collapsed Lake Norman home owned by the Tennessee Titans cornerback. Deputies first responded to the gas-scented scene at about 12 a.m., Iredell County Emergency Management reported. The $3 million home used to stand near a north Lake Norman cove just past Trump National Golf Club, property records show. At a news conference Tuesday afternoon, county Fire Services and Emergency Management Director Kent Greene said officials are “looking into the issue of natural gas but the investigation is ongoing... It appears to be an accident.”

Caleb Farley was at the scene of the deadly explosion later Tuesday morning and spoke with the fire marshal. His aunt and uncle also were on the scene, according to Greene.

 

The 6,000-square-foot house was leveled, Greene said, and several cars were also lost.

Caleb Farley, a 24-year-old Maiden native and former Virginia Tech cornerback, has owned the home since May 2022, records show.

Meanwhile, Chris Simms on Sam Howell...

 

We are where we are as a franchise and I am fine with it.  Albeit it was expensive to get where we are but it is what it is.  But damn deep in my gut it feels like we made a colossal error going corral over Howell or simply not drafting him as well in the 4rth.

What if we had done that but then Reich and company still wanted "their guy" then Howell was way outplaying Bryce? Oh wee mayne. What a poo show that would be. 😂

Looking like I was wrong about howell, anytime you are named the starter is uber rare. *backdoor* I did want to draft howell even after they traded up for correll. But that pick was used to trade up for brandon smith, whom is looking like hes on the cut list. I cannot go back and look at some of the draft threads, ill get sicker..

    • Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. (He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.
    • Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.
    • I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
