I feel old

I was one of the first people to interview TD in a long form format after he was drafted. I think I still have the audio of that kicking around here somewhere. I'll try to dig it up this weekend.

Man that’d be cool if you can find it.  I’d love to give that a listen… please share if you do!

I was 33 years old the day Jerry was awarded a franchise. Don't talk to me about old.

Damn, OG. You’re not old. You’re a seasoned vet. It now makes sense how you don’t get too high or too low when it comes to the team and their moves. I was either 4 or 5 at that time. I’m 35 now.

I've been here through it all my friend. So when I say I've seen how this turns out folks really should listen. But they won't. So I continue to be entertained by fair weather fans that talk down to me as if I don't know squat. That's fine. Their in for some painful reality checks.

I suppose the one thing you learn being around this long is how all the arguing and bickering all end up sounding the same. Only the names change. For example, all the BY talk here is child's play compared to when Jake Delhomme was our QB. We even had a name for those defending Jake: Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffer (BDJS).

And of course the running joke that 3rd and long = draw play every single time.

And making fun of David Carr's gloves.

And the disdain for drafting Luke even though we already had linebackers at the time.

And swinging back on topic, how giving Thomas Davis Sr yet another shot after multiple injuries was a horrible idea. Give TD his due because he proved us all wrong.

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
