Agreed. and you literally used "literally" in the literal sense.

The only thing I can add about the concerning discussion that worries me are these thoughts from Yogi Berra:

  • When you come to a fork in the road, take it.
  • You can observe a lot by just watching.
  • It ain’t over till it’s over.
  • It’s like déjà vu all over again.
  • No one goes there nowadays, it’s too crowded.
  • Baseball is 90% mental and the other half is physical.
  • A nickel ain’t worth a dime anymore.
  • Always go to other people’s funerals, otherwise they won’t come to yours.
  • We made too many wrong mistakes.
  • Congratulations. I knew the record would stand until it was broken.
  • You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.
  • You wouldn’t have won if we’d beaten you.
  • I usually take a two-hour nap from one to four.
  • Never answer an anonymous letter.
  • Slump? I ain’t in no slump… I just ain’t hitting.
  • The future ain’t what it used to be.
  • It gets late early out here.
  • If the people don’t want to come out to the ballpark, nobody’s going to stop them.
  • We have deep depth.
  • Pair up in threes.
  • Why buy good luggage, you only use it when you travel.
  • You’ve got to be very careful if you don’t know where you are going, because you might not get there.
  • Even Napoleon had his Watergate.
  • He hits from both sides of the plate. He’s amphibious.
  • It was impossible to get a conversation going, everybody was talking too much.
  • I don’t know (if they were men or women fans running naked across the field). They had bags over their heads.
  • I’m not going to buy my kids an encyclopedia. Let them walk to school like I did.
  • I never blame myself when I’m not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn’t my fault that I’m not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?
  • I never said most of the things I said.
  • It ain’t the heat, it’s the humility.
  • If you ask me anything I don’t know, I’m not going to answer.
  • Little League baseball is a very good thing because it keeps the parents off the streets.
  • If the world were perfect, it wouldn’t be.

I feel like I just listened to a post-game press conference from The Process or a speech by George W Bush or Joe Biden.

I understand why. You want your backup to get more reps than the backup to the backup.

He's taking the PJ Walker reps from last TC, whereas last year he was taking Jake Luton equivalent reps. 

we know what dalton is.  If for some reason BY goes down we aint winning poo with dalton so why not try and develop mc as well.  Just feels off and a bit like last year.  But this staff seemingly knows what they are doing which leads me to the conclusion maybe Corral just isnt any good.

Is there any intel, any comment or anything at all about Matt Corral and how he is looking, reps etc? 

He’s getting very few reps. Bryce is getting almost all team reps. Dalton is getting the remainder.

It feels like the team has moved on and I wouldn’t be surprised if they trade him for a low pick after camp.

I doubt he’ll stick as a PS guy.

My man can he at least play 1 game in a Panthers uniform before we start showing concern?

You want to crown him before he plays a game. Why can't I show concern before he plays a game? All I said was that he hasn't done much when the full 11 v 11 period begins yet everyone here is comparing him to All-Time Greats and talking Super Bowls based on 7 v 7 numbers.

We can keep three QB's now. He will be on the roster.

Right, it just depends on if they think he could step in and play well. I have my doubts, but hopefully he shows out in the pre-season. I don’t see how though without practice.

    • Are you now equating best/worst rush defense with best/worst defense? Those are separate things entirely. For rush defense, depending on how you quantify it, he has been largely in the bottom third of the league his entire career as a defensive coordinator.  As you can see, aside from his one year in Denver, he has never been above 20th in yardage. Now, there is context to consider which is most coordinators choose to run on him(24th-32nd ranked in his three year in Carolina). So, if you just simply look at Y/A, it has been a relatively mixed bag. Twice a top 15 defense but twice a bottom 15 defense.  The thing the should make all this good/bad run defense a lot clearer is the right most columns. Evero's defense has always prioritized pass defense and confusing QB's. That's the core of his defensive philosophy, as has been reported relatively widely. As much as there are ample personnel issues on that side of the ball(many of which he contributes to with his below average talent evaluations) his defenses may never be truly elite in rush and pass defense unless they are stocked with defensive talent. Like....his Denver defense that he inherited was. To that point, if you look at all those rankings from the three years Fangio(of whom Evero is a noted disciple) it shows a progression of getting steadily better into the far more elite defense it is now under Vance Joseph. As far as his HC interest, recall that he was a hot commodity after Denver and that cooled significantly after his first two years here. I suppose if you count getting interviews for HC positions as a benchmark for being a good coach(most would not) then he is middle of the packish.
