▪ Third-string quarterback Matt Corral received a bit of an uptick in team workload on Sunday. His highlight play was a laser in between defenders to Terrace Marshall in 7-on-7 work. Corral has had a solid camp thus far.

Training Camp always favors the defense. 

Rookie QB.New starters at every skill position. In an offense that ISN'T a simple offense. 

The only good thing going for the offense right now is the experienced oline. 

Going to take some time for this offense to truly start clicking. 

Shouldn't be a worry with this defense,  and the ability to run the ball.  It will open up this offense.  Patience people.

Preach.  I have endured 41 Carolina summers in my life.  I love this state/area, but if I never have to experience being drenched in sweat from being outside for 5 minutes or less in July/August/September, I do not feel like my life will be worse.

The one thing I've never gotten tired of in 41 years is the sweet relieve of the Carolina Fall, and everything it brings with it, especially Panthers football.

There is nothing better than that first break of the heat that comes early/mid October. I long for it every year. Hands down my favorite season.

September is not too bad. By the end of it it is nice and comfortable and cool and the high average for this September is 81 so I’ll take that. 
Only abnormality I remember is 2019. Because it was in the 90s all the way up until October. 
Nothing like doing heating maintenance for gas furnaces in 90+ degree attics. 
Hot 200 degree burner heat right in your face.

    • 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.
