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.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
