So the coaches called plays to see how well bryce can take sacks from multiple directions.  Ok got it. 

Superbowl !

The O-line protection issues are something I think people could legitimately point to as an issue that could translate to the regular season games. They absolutely have to get that cleaned up and I’d like to be optimistic and believe they will. 
 

The play calling and stuff however, idk man. They’ve told us over and over that they aren’t running the stuff we’ll see in season. Frank has said it, Thomas has said it, and Bryce admitted it in the pressers last night. Now if the plays/play calls look similar week one then hey, we can have a discussion. But right now when they aren’t game planning to beat certain looks and coverages, idk if I can get too worked up about it.

Well if he doesn't make it to regular season and it's Jordans fault, I'll be coming to you for answers. Furthermore, of Icky gives it up I will also want answers, put him at guard til he knows what he is doing! Don't play Bryce another down if you call this growing pains, let hom get another QB buried!

"We want answers" is apparently back 😕

It never has.

Hell, given the changes made in the past few years, if anything it means even less today than it did before.

Different expectations as well. I never expected the Panthers to be good this year. Ironically, most of y’all did. Apples to Oranges.

 

And we all expect goofy takes from you. Glad to see that hasn't changed.

 

I never saw the appeal of rooting for a team you think sucks? Talk about a waste of time. Lifes too short to waste time on something that makes me miserable.

 

It's times like this that make the Huddle so much fun to read.

There were even goofier takes last year.  And the year before that.   

and some people nailed it.  Folks like you did a lot of moaning and groaning at the crowd that ended up calling it pretty close.

Mr Scott. Just curious have you been a Panther fan since 95'?  Some of us know we could have ran this organization better over the last 3 decades. It's preseason and why don't you have the job people are short sighted ignoramuses.

Since before, actually. I was following when the team was announced.

I've been a football fan since 1972. Hell, when I was a kid they played six preseason games. Later on, they cut it down to four, then a few years ago to three. The league is looking to cut it down even further, and general belief is that they will.

Through all that time, preseason / exhibition or whatever else they were called, they've always been about player evaluation, nothing more.

Hell, these games probably mean less now than they ever did.

Ive has my disagreements with Mr. Scott but that’s a bush league move, asking him how long he’s been a fan because he’s not worried about preseason because you have that low of self esteem.

I swear Panther fans are the most entitled and crybaby fan base on the internet sometimes, we could win the super bowl and some of y’all would still b*tch we have no first round pick.

Fair enough! First game I actually remember was Montana to Clark. What a nice memory. First Bball memory was Jordans 16 footer in the championship. My favorite sports year was the next with N.C. State with 5 packa tacka against 5 slama jama. Can still name the starting 5. When everyone else grew up to hate the other I found solace in rooting for all of our state teams, even Duke n Wake. Made life a lot more fun.

? Um, okay. Not sure what you are trying to say here? Do you catalog goofy posts, or are yo just going off memory? Or is it just from experience that you know goofy takes have been around for a while. 

 

There are literally a poo ton of folks on here. I'm shocked, shocked I say that a couple people got things pretty close. lol

 

And lol at "moaning and groaning". It's your favorite activity. You are in every thread bemoaning something or other. You are one of the most negative posters we have. But you're on record with saying you are a notorious pot stirrer.

I was in high school (and a 49er fan at the time) when The Catch happened. I think I jumped about as high as Clark did 😃

My first football memory is of The Immaculate Reception. I was five and my family had the game on at my grandma's house. Saw that play happen and was like "What is this?"

Fifty years later, I've played, I've coached, I've studied...hell, my wife gets me books on coaching and scouting for Christmas.

And in all of it, I've learned...

... patience.

Said elsewhere: It's a marathon, not a sprint. The team you see today will likely beat little to no resemblance to the one you see in December.

That's why rushing to judgment is a mistake.

I knew Mr. Scott was a veteran, just wanted to make sure he had sat threw all of our pain. You most likely a teen in the Cam Super Bowl.

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
