I wouldn't necessarily say Newton moved down any, he's a first round QB and someone's gonna take a flier on him. As for Fairley? He played a great game, but I'm not sure how he will transition into the NFL. Hats off to them for winning the game, it was a fun one, but that doesn't necessarily mean I want them on my team. It's not hating, you can only get one player with one pick, you need to be critical.

Both teams looked like they hadn't played in a month (no shock, right?)

A competitive game? Yes, but not a great one by any stretch.

The NCAA seriously needs to rethink how they schedule these things.

Def. :yesnod:

Waiting a month to play the Championship game is stupid... something needs to be done about it!

Auburn played a horrible game and still won, they looked like they tried to lose.

Dropped passes, overthrown passes, dropped INT's, missed assignments.

So how overrated is Oregon if they lose a game like this?

I knew Auburn would win but wow.

And BTW if you weren't paying attention, Newton was clearly hurt/shaken up, which is why he was looking so sluggish in the 4th.

Give me a break man. Both teams left points on the field for sure. Given a 36 day layoff from football and the magnitude of the game, Im not surprized that it was what it was. Oregon deserved to play in the game, could have, and almost did win. How dare you.

Don't bother, he's the biased SEC fan. Everyone with any kind of knowledge of Oregon's team could see that the Duck's offense was severely out of rhythm. Their timing was way off and it caused a lot of missed opportunities. Also Darron Thomas' decision making in the redzone and on critical third down plays didn't help matters any. The same can be said for Auburn, they made some poor decisions and timing was off. Both teams are great teams, Auburn was just three points better last night. Anyone who says Oregon was overmatched is an idiot.....

isn't the game over???

Yea I just don't see how anyone could say Oregon was "over-matched" in a game decided by a last second field goal. Especially when Auburn might not have had a chance to kick a FG if it weren't for a mental lapse by the Oregon defenders on the Dyer run.....

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
