No OC wants to run an offense that consists of "alright guys, broken play on 3 let's go!"

Well the worry is he's missing the read the first time round and has to improvise - which is obviously much harder to do against NFL athletes.

Holy poo. Ngannou just floored Fury in the 3rd. Fury seems fine but he got knocked down.

So far he does not look like he's taken this seriously. Fury has not looked good.

He's done this his last few fights - wants a brawl rather than using his superior boxing skills to out box his opponents. 

Suspect he'll buck his ideas up now and change his tactics.

He's brawling even more. I think he came into this wanting to show he could beat Ngannou at his own game. He probably will end up doing it but damn... that's a risky game to play

Fury is starting to put it on Ngannou pretty good now. Ngannou is definitely slowing down. Ngannou has a chin though. He hasn't seemed seriously bothered by anything landed yet.

The hits add up even if it’s not showing yet. He’s got to block better.

Nah, he's actually boxing now and has taken over the fight.

Fury did not take the seriously. He looks straight gassed.

If I'm in his corner I'm seriously worried about these scorecards right now. Only two rounds left and this has been razor close and Ngannou has a knockdown in his back pocket.

This is shaping up like an all-time embarrassing upset in combat sports. The legendary boxers littering the crowd look WORRIED. They've already seen their sport slip badly in recent years. This would be a terrible black eye for the sport.

    • Coaches can't mentor, they coach, they are two entirely different things, and your coaches can also only do so many things at one time.  When they're running a drill, the vets are pulling the young guys aside after their reps and giving tips while waiting for the drill to reset. You do also realize that for the most part, players are only around the coaches in the film room and on the field, coaches aren't in the locker room other than just before the game and at half.  That's another place someone like Thielen shines, he's always been a pro's pro, he's going to take these young WRs under his wing and team them how you go about being an NFL player. That's not stuff coaches do, you NEED the vets for it and Thielen has embraced the role.  When you have a guy who made his career on doing the little things right, and he is willing to be that vet mentor to a group of young WRs in their 1st or 2nd year that you hope to be your future 1-4, then he's worth every penny we're giving him this year.
    • Why in Minnesota? That's bizarre. Not like we have a vet WR who played his college ball and the majority of his NFL ball in Minnesota that a few room temperature IQ Panthers fans want to poo on who was obviously brought in every bit as much to mentor young WRs as much as he was to play who has still managed to put up decent numbers in awful offenses in the twilight of his career. Anyone who thinks the Panthers haven't gotten everything out of Thielen that they signed up for shouldn't be taken seriously.
