I always like to put pressure on myself,” said the 6-foot, 242-pound Fiammetta. “I consider myself a perfectionist. I put a lot of pressure on myself to get better every day. With Brad leaving that leaves some big shoes to fill but I think I’m going to be able to do that.”

Hahahahah, all of you idiots are willing to bet that Jarret "breaks out" this year even though he has consistently shown over 3 years that he just sucks ass.

However Fiammetta gets one year and 2 games and he sucks ass? Give the kid some time, FB is a much harder position to learn than you guys think. He will be good if he gets the chance.

Yup, lots of nuiances to playing FB that folks don't appreciate and when you add being a rookie on top of that, it's easy for a guy to look bad at first.

Jury is still out on Fiametta, but there are still plenty of reasons to believe he can get the job done.

Yeah its so hard that an undrafted free agent in Tyrell Sutton can come in and learn it in a week.

Well said.

I don't care if Fiammetta starts or if it's Rashawn Jackson -- I just want the best man for the job at the position.

It is interesting, though, that we've picked up the top-rated fullback (to some, at least) in the last two drafts.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
