LOL, thank you!

If Luck doesn't come out, then I'm of the opinion that we should try to trade down and get a high 2nd round pick back. It will be much easier to trade out of the 1st or 2nd overall pick this year with a rookie pay scale on the horizon.

but then the huddle will have to figure out what to do with jimmy...again!

It is starting to look more and more like Cowher and Carolina might join forces. I think it has been the plan all along, why Cowher waited and why JR did not re-sign Fox and cleaned house--defensively for the most part. He knew the coversion to the 3-4 would be expensive. Then his letter comes out the same week Cowher proclaims interest in the league when only 3-4 jobs are obvious? We drafted Eric Norwood--how does he fit the 4-3? We drafted a former QB turned WR hybrid. Slash II?

This will influence the draft. After nabbing a QB, the Panthers will use free agency to build the D and an OL. JR has given Cowher a lot of room under the cap to build the D he wants. This also suggests (possibly) that Cowher will be given the power to make personnel decisions. I cannot be sure that he has not already been involved.

This is pure speculation, not based on anything but loosely-constructed circumstantial evidence, if evidence at all. When Marino made a comment about Cowher and the Panthers and later apologized, it suggested that there may be more to this than anyone on the outside knows. Does it make sense to anyone else, or do you all think I am on drugs?

      It's also worth noting that Cam himself said that he felt safer when running vs. sitting in the pocket because he could see the contact coming and could better prepare for it. A QB running the ball doesn't have to be a sledgehammer. He just has to be effective.

      That Falcons game is about as good as it gets. Especially on the road. I know the Falcons defense was bad but he was cooking with Coker, an undrafted rookie get the bulk of the receptions. If your QB has 5 TDs and 0 turnovers he is playing like a top QB, yardage be damned. The big question for me is how consistently can be play the whole season?  I don’t expect a game like that every week, but I also don’t want to see any performances like the pre benching or that Cowboys game (which was bad post benching). Bryce’s best shot at being the guy is becoming a mini-Burrow who is about as consistent as you can get at the QB position.  The good news is this QB class should be a fun one. So hopefully Bryce becomes the guy, if not it’s a nice class to let DC pick his QB and they should come into a great situation with a good OL, RB, young talented WRs etc…

      Bryce Young is far less risky with his body when he runs than Richardson and doesn’t take many unnecessary big hits. Was much more worried about injury when he had that abysmal OL his rookie season than I ever would be when he runs/scrambles. 500/10 seems like a fairly reasonable prediction considering he had 250/6 in 12 starts last season. Of course literally anybody CAN get hurt, it’s just that we were assured by many huddlers that it was a sure thing with Bryce Young that he wouldn’t make it to this point in his career without significant injuries.
