I'm looking towards the #2 wr posistion more then anything. I feel with as good as our running game is if we had a solid #2 wr we would dominate. I am a jarett fan but I think we r best suited for lafell to step in and for jarett/edwads to trade off as a #3

I'm looking forward to Clawesome establishing himself as a true contender for the starting spot heading into preseason. As of now, it's not officially a "competition" for the job but I imagine that the terminology will be different after training camp and we'll hear that it will in fact be a competition from that point on. and, i'll take it one step further and say that if his improvements are so vast from mini camp to the end of training camp to warrant even a change in status from "Matt is our starter" to "open competition" then that might actually mean Jimmy Clawesome is more awesome than we may have thought and might actually have a better than average chance of winning the starting spot. if however, Matt is still boldly stated as the starter, then Jimmy didn't impress enough to warrent a competition thus highly unlikely to be the starter at all barring an injury.

I wish training camp was televised. even on direct tv pay per view. i'd pay the price of a movie ticket ($10) per day to watch the action. it would be better than any of the crap that is actually playing at the theaters.

What part of Spartanburg training camp am I looking forward to? My annual artery clogging trip to the beacon, hearing about the annual pizza eating contest between Zod, Meat and other Huddlers at the Pizza Hut, or watching the team and players practice????

So many choices........................................:rolleyes:

hell with training camp! im driving to SC just to watch this!!

ZOD + Meat + Pizza eating contest = :puke:

I'm looking most forward to seeing Armanti Edwards in person. With all the hype thats surrounded him since the draft and especially mini camp I want to see if he's really as electric as everyone makes him out to be.

But other than that I just want to experience the atmosphere. You can tell a hell of a lot about how good (or bad) a team is going to be by watching their dynamic and chemistry during camp. So lets hope its a good one...without embarrassing injuries during the first days morning workouts!

Well, to be honest, since I don't actually see the training camp...well...let me give you a quote from another sports "superstar" who is somtimes referenced as two letters (not named T.O.):

I mean listen, we sitting here talking about practice. Not a game, but we talking about practice...How silly is that?

Now I know that I'm supposed to lead by example and all that but I'm not shoving that aside like it don't mean anything. I know it's important. I honestly do. But we talking about practice. What are we talking about? Practice? We talking about practice. We talking about practice. We ain't talking about the game. We talking about practice.

Well its a good thing A.I. isn't on our team or he wouldn't be having a practice to talk about.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
