Formula for successful posting on the Huddle...

Post an opinion.

If everybody agrees with the opinion, make sure you take full credit for being the first to bring it up and let everybody pat you on the back and give you pie.

If your opinion is wrong, and several posters point this out with facts to back it up, claim you were trolling and had everybody fooled.

Who will know the difference?

All I said when talking out of my ass was that he didn't sound very intelligent...

That is an opinion, and I still stand by it...

Some responded by throwing Pep and Gamble out there pretty much saying the same thing about them that I did about AE... I'd have to disagree...

As I stated before, I hope Armanti proves me wrong... I really do.. for the Panthers' sake, and his own...

Hell, he is probably smarter than I am for all I know, which doesn't take much...

I didn't read the whole thread, but I thought this would be important to mention if it hasn't been yet: According to what I just looked up, there's a great chance that Mardy Gilyard will at least be the slot receiver for the Rams this season if not the #2 receiver. He's looking very solid already.

No offense, but that sounds rather homeristic...

Gamble played at one of the top colleges for football... Peppers is pretty much a freak of nature, and an unrivaled talent at his position...

Armanti did neither of these things... He is an athletic talent that was in a system and conference which made him shine...

Need I remind you that Dameyune Craig still holds the NFL record for passing yards in a sanctioned event? Whatever happened to him?

All I am saying is that I think reaching for Edwards might not pay off like taking Gilyard would have...

As I have hinted at elsewhere, I am tired of constantly building for tomorrow, and want to win now...

All that said, I still think we are going to surprise a lot of people this season, and could be a contender if the pieces fall into place right... I hope nothing but the best for all of our players... Armanti included!

Gamble played as a WR at OSU and never played CB till he came here. It was a bumpy ride to start with but he paned out well. Being a starting WR at OSU did not help him out at CB. Also T.Davis was another one that had a rough start but came out to shine. I think Edwards will do the same. I think he will start out slow but in year two or three he will break out. Now many things can happen but all I have heard out of him is positive things.

lil more info on Gamble

In 38 games, he started 18 times on defense and 12 times on offense (started on both offense and defense in five contests in 2002). Recorded 65 tackles (51 solos) with three stops behind the line of scrimmage, seven interceptions and 21 pass deflections. Also caught 40 passes for 609 yards (15.2 avg.), rushed six times for 68 yards (11.3 avg.) with a touchdown, returned 60 punts for 467 yards (7.8 avg.) and had 18 kickoff returns for 384 yards (21.3 avg.).

Then he was even slower to progress then I thought. If he had experience at CB you could not tell it his rookie year. Also what I have said about Davis still remains true. He came from a Smaller collage(Georgia) and seemed to do alright.

From what I hear he is fighting to stay on the roster with a guy that was on a pratice squad last year. info

I'm just surprised he's having such a hard time catching the punts, makes me wonder how good of a WR he will really be, I guess I was a little confused on what they say that made them want to draft this QB and convert him to all this stuff, I haven't seen App state and didn't know him prior to us drafting him

gamble played some WR but majority of his starts where as a CB on defense.

Dont get a PR guy confused with a WR. Two different animals right there. There are a ton of great WRs that could not catch a punt if it meant there life. Punt returning is very difficult and some people just cant do it. On the other hand some can be great Punt returners but horrible Kick return guys so that just shows you how different things can be.

"I think Panthro's comment of him playing 8 years of HS ball may be pretty accurate."

just like darren sharper coming from william and mary? or joe flacco coming from delaware? or how bout brad hoover from w.carolina? those are just some of the players off the top of my head that came from that league. he didnt play 8 years of high school ball.

      I couldn’t summarize it any better, dude let his ego run wild and it cost us, I remember this idiot wasted a season and was non committal about cam being a franchise qb, then he went to the Giants and ran them into the ground too

      Aiden Fisher

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      I was watching the game last night (actually 330am) and they brought up that Aiden Fisher calls out the plays the other team is running.  This of course reminded me of Luke.  I haven't followed Indiana football at all but I wonder that the Huddle thinks of him as a future Panther Linebacker Aiden Fisher's pro prospects are promising, with a strong track record of performance and potential for success in the NFL. His ability to read the game and make plays with precision, combined with his leadership and physicality, make him a valuable asset to any defense. Fisher's development at Indiana and his selection as a first-team All-Big Ten linebacker in 2024 further solidify his status as a top prospect for the 2026 NFL Draft   Thoughts?

      There is no doubt that winning on the field is the ultimate goal.  But not far behind that is winning off the field / in the board room / at the bank. Beane has been meticulous in betting on Josh Allen being able to put on the cape and taking a band of misfits to the playoffs every year.  That drives tickets, merch, concessions, TV shares, etc.  Which all put money into the owner's pockets.  The coach only controls what's on the field, and even then, it's mostly out of his hands minus time management as he doesn't throw, catch, run or kick for those 60 minutes.  My guess is Beane has made that owner a poo ton of money through contracts (or lack there of), and staying the course financially when it's easy to overspend to get over the hump.  That's why he's still there and McDermott isn't.  My guess is they will hire a non-splash candidate that commands middle of the pack money for a head coach, and Beane will once again point out to ownership how he saved them $4-$6M with this hire, and they still have Superman on their team.  New England has a first place schedule next year, and that's likely good for 2 additional losses, which would give them the same record as the Bills had this year. I knew McDermott was gone if they didn't reach the Superbowl.
