Hard Knocks?

With Canales, our Hard Knocks is more likely to play out like a Hallmark movie, which is the opposite of what they want. We'll probably be safe because of that.

yeah, Canales nor Bryce really offer what that show wants.   We would have to be bringing a lot to the table given we are a small market team.  We just don't have the personalities.  XL just ain't enough

Robert Hunt would shine for the show I think, Derrick Brown would be an interesting story to watch during his last parts of rehab, Bryce is intruiging just because of his massive comeback this season. There could be something there, I hope they choose us since we're in a very curious spot going into next season.

This doesn't have nearly the same appeal it used to. Teams are actively avoiding "Hard Knocks," especially after the Giants' experience. That said, I would enjoy it a lot.

For someone that actively avoided the show, what happened with the Giants?

I'd probably watch one about us, heh

It is generally felt that the Giants were embarrassing on "Hard Knocks," mostly due to their handling of the Saquon situation and because of this no one will do it again.

Pretty much this. Yeah, I would enjoy getting a better look at the process as a Panthers fan but my #1 goal as a Panthers fan is to see my team win. I don't think the circus of Hard Knocks at all contributes to that #1 goal. In fact I think it works against it and that's why teams seek to avoid it. I'm honestly surprised the NFL hasn't gotten rid of it with all teams universally hating it but then again the same thing is true for Thursday Night Football, so yeah... all about the Benjamins.

They will go wherever the Sanders circus end up.

that seems like the smartest play.  Because you know you essentially are going to get the Sanders family along w/ the QB.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
