The big cat came out and was very honest. He controlled the room,which reminded me of the reports of him taking control of the room at the labor talks. He did not divulge any groundbreaking news but nor should he have.

I also liked how he admitted that he is running a business but at the same time being a former player that he desires to win more than any other owner.

I felt like he gave a reasonable explanation for last years moves, including indicating Fox being to loyal to vets. I enjoyed hearing how he inferred that he'd like a coach willing to make adjustments when things aren't going right.On the labor agreement it was not the news I was looking for but at least he was brutally honest about it.

Not so sure the Panthers liked it.

Two hours later and the video is still "coming soon" on the team website.

Draft day videos are normally up pretty quick.

Could just be different staff (I think Mason used to handle all that) but it makes me wonder if they're not trying to edit some stuff out.

That was my first thought when JR started talking...."this will be edited down or not posted on the site at all"

They probably want to take out all those scenes of him being dominated by that tricky adjustable microphone.

Well, JR saying the "negotiations aren't going well" is at odds with poo Goodell has been saying for a couple days now about the CBA.

I'm thinking this is a PR nightmare for the NFL, and the Panthers' front office is getting bombarded with calls from the NFL Home Office (yes, supposedly Goodell has come out and said "we don't discount anything JR said", but that's BS).

Actually in the article posted by yas he says richardson had told goodell he was going to say that and he was fine with it.

Yeah, I read that too.

But think about it... if JR wants to say something about owner's negotiations... who's Goodell to stop him? What's he gonna do, fine him?

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
