Since when is Tom Brady a seasoned TV announcer. They bumped the guy with actual experienced for the guy they paid way too much money for 

To be fair, Olsen started out that way. As do all former players. They're not putting Brady on the No. 6 team that's for sure.

The Panthers are doomed to have Kenny Albert and Jonathan Vilma in perpetuity.

Jonathan Vilma is by far my least favorite announcer. It's not only his antiPanthers bias that I can understand, it's that he clearly doesn't watch our team outside of  the game he is currently calling, he has Facebook level commentary

No they didn't. GOAT's make their own rules.

 

There is a standard Brady/Manning are the golden boys. Everybody else falls in line.

 

Same reason LeBron James got his son drafted when he's not a NBA level player. GOAT's eat first!

I mean, you definitely arent wrong in what you said. Those two dominate the world in football and basketball no denying Lebrons son should not have been drafted where he was. A part of me cheers for Bronny though since he probably isnt even ready for the NBA and may never be. Im hoping he gets it and his skills greatly increase where he can hang to prove everyone wrong for whatever reason.

Kenny Albert is a lot better when he’s calling a hockey game.  I’m not sure why but he’s not great for football.

Poor goof ball is probably still trying to escape being tied to his brother's name Marv who used to enjoy holding hookers hostage in closets while biting them.

With seasoned TV announcer Tom Brady joining the Fox football broadcast team, some expected changes were to be made

Brady will be the #1 team with Kevin Burkhardt, at least until Fox figures out that maybe they shouldn't have thrown together a stupid contract and wiggles out of it

Olsen will be paired with Joe Davis for the #2 team, making those games worth watching

Adam Amin and Mark Sanchez are the No. 3 team

Kenny Albert and Jon Vilma No. 4

Kevin Kugler and Daryl Johnston No. 5

Guessing that most of the Panthers games will likely be assigned to Chris Myers and Mark Schlereth No. 6 this season.

I'll take whatever is not Vilma... God he is an annoying prick

I think Brady is going to be wooden and not very good at all. 

Yeah, he seems like he has the personality of a 2x4. I just don't see how it's gonna translate to the broadcasting booth. I could see him doing some type of indepth analysis stuff on YouTube that football nerds like me would eat up, but that's something entirely different.

I thought he was going to be terrible when it was first announced, he just doesn't seem to be that type of guy in interviews during his playing career.

But have seen a few clips of him breaking stuff down recently and he sounded really good.

Apparently he actually took that year before starting up to go through a broadcasting bootcamp, he might surprise people with how good he can be.  With how he sees the game, if he can figure out the broadcasting side of it, he could be what Romo was that first year (but he kinda sucks now, it's weird)

Bronny will carve out a successful 10+ year NBA career.  He's not going to be Lebron and be a HOFer, but he's going to end up being an elite defensive player, think a Marcus Smart or Derrick White.

No, he wasn't an NBA ready prospect yet, and he really always was going to need a couple years of seasoning to be ready for the league.  But people forget that he couldn't train for 4+ months in the summer leading into his Freshman year, like at all.

He never stood a chance this past season, people judging him on it are just not willing to be objective and are hating on him because he only got drafted because of his dad.

Not every successful NBA player is an offensive juggernaut, he's going to make his money on the other end of the court and be very good at it.  His defensive instincts and overall bball IQ are off the charts good and all accounts are that Lebron's work ethic was picked up by both of his sons, that's a combo for success.

Bronny's NBA career will last exactly as long as the remainder of Lebron's.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
