"Bend don't break" defense is such bullshit...

It doesn't work, look at Baltimore, Philly, Pittsburgh (don't know about arizona, didn't see much after i turned it off at halftime). They have BALLHAWKING defenses and do not allow anything that resembles bending, that is simply unacceptable to them. Yet, ONE IS AT LEAST GOING TO SB 43. I understand that giving up yards > giving up points, but with this style defense, they may as well put the ball in the redzone.

It's getting so hard to be a Panther fan. I am truly jealous of Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Tennessee, or f*ck, even the 49ers (now that Singletary took over). They don't stand for this soft zone bullsh*t.

P.S:I'd like to change my name as well, Zod and/or other mods, you can be free to choose any name you want.

I'm gone until the draft, Jake gets sh*t canned, or maybe even till preseason. It was fun, but the 08 panthers were one of the most disappointing panthers teams I can remember. I'm gonna take a break from football, i definitely won't watch tomorrow.

this board will be dead soon, so I'll see you all later.

Didn't you say you were leaving? Make up your mind

Anyone remember the Texans game last year? How similar was the Cardinals game to that? Andre Johnson just torched us again and again as he consistently found the holes in our zones. Let's face facts elite Wrs find the holes in zones. That is why they are elite. The only way to deal with Fitz is to man up on him, safety over the top and another guy floating around on the passing lane. Much like they did to Smith.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
