A Question for the College Ball Followers

Though this question does smack of a sarcastic note. Not graduating from a 4 year school, I'm not really into college ball that much. I know that's where the pro pool is drawn. I just have other pokers in the fire that waste my time. But I was wondering, given their pooooor performance this season and from what appears to be a lack of basic offensive and special team skills....

Is there a college team that would stand a chance of beating the Panthers this season? Could an all-star high school team?

Just asking.

The worst nfl teams are made up of the best of the best of the best out of college so hellllllllllll no.

The NFL team would score probably within 2-3 plays max if they didn't run the kick back everytime. The college team would have negative offensive yards, they wouldn't be able to punt without getting it blocked a majority of the time.

It would be that bad. Like when the new kid came to school and he didn't know which kids were beasts at kickball so he picked all the scrubs.

No. Every NFL player was the best player at their respective college/university. If they were not the best outright player, they for sure were the best at their position. Just think, life time special teamers and backups in the NFL were captains, starters and record holders at their respective schools.

These days no college team could beat an NFL team who stay in shape year round. But between 1934 and 1975 the reigning NFL champ would play a college all star team before the start of the NFL season. The college all-stars won 9 times- last in 1963. The reason is because pro teams before the 70s didn't stay in shape year round often using the preseason and first part of the season to get into shape. Remember that the money wasn't great back then and most players had other jobs.

Now it wouldn't be even close and wasn't the last half dozen games they played which is one reason the game was abandoned.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.
