He is nice but LOL @ them getting absolutely wood shedded by a bad UCF team. Yikes.

Oh it's beyond awful, people think these boards have been bad the last couple years, my Arizona board is so much worse right now, the place is imploding

The team is garbage, but T-Mac is a certifiable stud stuck in an awful situation.

If our QB wasn't his childhood best friend, he'd likely just say he has a sprained ankle and sit out the year to protect his draft stock, but he's not that kinda kid, he's going to keep playing unless he actually gets hurt.

He's nice, don't get me wrong. But Hampton is better. Jeanty's team is a lot better.

Yea, sorry, if someone is possibly/likely to break Barry's old rushing records, I don't think the "better team" argument holds much water.

You put up historic numbers like that, you're the best RB that year, no matter the team around you.

He's great. And yeah, his team is much better. Jeanty is the focal point of a very good overall offense. Hampton IS the UNC offense. He's a couple of catches away from being the top receiver on the team too. Honestly, after today's game he might be.

I get it, and I'm not a "stats are the end all be all" type of guy

But if you break almost 40 year old records, then yea, I'm just going to say you're the best at that position that year, regardless of anything else.  Kinda like if a WR in the NFL were to ever get 2,000 yards.  He's the best WR that year, no matter the reasons or how anyone else's film looks.

Sometimes raw stats are too ridiculous to not take them into account

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
