if we are taking requests....

I'd like the media to only talk to XL.  And every time they ask him a question he goes...

and walks off.  Not mad or angry though.  Just back to work.  Maybe add in an occasional oh wee mayne or something.  He can get a little creative. 

This post makes me chuckle. I’d love for XL to do this and go on a tangent about a horse story from back home or something.

To the point of the original post, i think Theilin is doing the correct thing as an vet and propping up his QB. It’s off season fluff for sure but yeah I get it.

Some of you need to understand that these types of articles/"fluff" pieces aren't catering to the types of fans who are going scorched earth rage-posting online about "clown show" this and "dumpster fire" that and getting ticked off at the sight of a few seconds of David Tepper in a 45-minute video.  Y'all are a particularly niche subset of the fanbase to get irrationally upset over these things and are far beyond placating.  There's zero reason from a business perspective (which is what this is at the end of the day) to waste a second thinking about a portion of the fanbase who has zero excitement around the team, won't go to a single game this year, won't buy any merch, etc.  If you're the type of person who acknowledges there's nothing the team could do or say in the offseason to sway you in any way, then have the awareness to recognize that you're not the target audience.

Yes, a lot of people (myself included) are numb to these types of articles and are in a "just show me" mindset...but getting upset at an incredibly milquetoast piece of praise like "Bryce looks more comfortable" is honestly pretty unhinged.  Thielen is even explicitly acknowledging a similar sentiment as you in the last paragraph of the article: 

Quote

“Again, like I said last year and I’ll never not talk about this — things are always great this time of year. There’s no wins, no losses, there’s no adversity. It’s all good right now, every single team thinks they can go to the playoffs and have a chance to win the Super Bowl. So we’ll see how it goes when the bullets start flying, but we’re in a good place.”

He's basically saying "yeah this is the offseason so take all of this with a grain of salt".  I don't even think this rises to the level of "fluff".

Yes, and I'm 100% serious here, as far as I'm concerned they would be better off saying absolutely nothing from now until week 1.

Or just stop being so sensitive to it. Probably more practical than thinking they shouldn't talk.

Yeah I don’t think they are going to shut down their marketing/PR department. It’s still a big business with loads of money to be made.

there is no money to be made with him peddling this bullshit, you have to be an absolute moron to be suckered back in at this point.  Nobody is buying tickets, jerseys etc based on AT talking up bryce.  That ship has sailed.  Panthers PR is the fuging worst.

I'm not sensitive at all - largely either ignore it or make a smartass comment and move on. The question was asked, however, so I responded.

It gets clicks. We have shared it on here, most of us have clicked it thus generating money…

Yep, the world doesn't revolve around the  handful of dudes on the Huddle who gripe 24/7.

yeah I would definitely take our board know it all fat guys intel over Thielen's any day of the week since Thielen said he had confidence in Bryce last season as obviously our board know it all fat guys have never gotten anything wrong in their lives other than thinking their summer swim suit actually looked good stretched across their hairy bellies like a dozen soggy jelly donuts stuffed in a used condom

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
