watched the first two drives (will zip through the rest later)

Liked seeing Bryce have some time in the pocket. Yes, he overthrew a few players - but was that an issue with Bryce or blown coverage or something else?

Liked seeing the refs call a Roughing the Passer on the Giants. Can't recall the last time Carolina was on the beneficial end of a Roughing penalty.

Based solely on the few plays I watched -- things looked significantly better than last week.  Are there still improvements to be made? YES. Did we make progress this past week? DEFINITELY

I actually like some things that DJ Johnson did. He made a superb one-on-one tackle on the Giants QB off a play action bootleg that I’ve seen many players miss. If he misses that tackle the Giants QB is still running.

Blackshear has been mentioned and I agree, I really like his shiftiness. He seems to have a lot of twitch and his vision and burst seems to be better than Hubbard’s.

I also thought Deion Jones played well, he had some nice sticks at the LOS and generated some pressure on the Giants QB.

And finally I was impressed with the Giants inability to line up onside for the duration of the first half. That was an amazing display of either not giving a fug or having no idea where the actual LOS is.

One player I was not impressed with was Eric Rowe, guy is not twitchy at all and was getting eaten alive on post routes. God help him if the receiver doesn’t run in a straight line causes he’s toast.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
