I watched the whole thing and it was overall very encouraging.

The trio of Morgan/Tilis/Canales has me feeling optimistic for the future. Now we need to see this on the field.

As for Tepper. I don't mind him being in the draft room and giving basic input. Anything beyond that should and will ilicit criticism. Just be an owner and let the football people make the decisions when the time comes. And that's what he did so I have no complaints.

I will say as far as the draft and FA we seem to have put a higher emphasis on seeking additions with the right mentality and high character. They're trying to instill a culture. I have no idea if it will work but at least they are making it a priority. That's all I can ask for at this juncture.

one thing that was interesting was how they were using Tepper.

They had Eric Eager doing analytics on mocks he was running to see who might be available later and then he was relaying to them the odds of so and so being there later and then they would look at Tepper and ask wat he thinks of those odds and even then it was kind of "we're already making up our mind about this, but are you in the boat with us?"

so any involvement tepper had in the discussion was limited and kind of just a courtesy. that's just my perception anyways. i could be completely wrong. wouldn't be the first time.

I like the Teppers involvement sorry. Rather have an engaged owner and then someone falling asleep in his box seat. And I think this idea that's he's been overruling the coaches have been overblown, he's just been really bad at hiring them. Canales is his attempt at course correction by making it Dan's choice.

The "football guys" are still picked by the owner at the end of the day, there's no way around that so I'd rather the guy be into it. 

 

Meddling dumb owners is the classic way to ruin a franchise. Ask the Redskins.

Happy Mental Health GIF by VeeFriends

This seems to be the new Panthers and I like the vibes I'm getting from the entire organization right now. 

this off-season, we were the happiest 5-12 fanbase in the league

where other similar teams were drowning in their tears, we ended the season with hope and a seemingly upwards trajectory

I like these panthers versions of hard knocks. They do their duty of getting me pumped up for the season. 

Is it a fluff piece? Absolutely 

Will the panthers be good this year? Who knows. 

Are these worthwhile and entertaining watches? No doubt. 

Can I wait for the season to start? Nope

I wonder if the value in theory of those picks next year go up in value simply because of the qb influx that will be in the draft? I just hope this isnt another burns situation.

My personal read is 2026 draft is immensely more valued than this 2025. 

*But the deal is the NFL has never had this amount of decent-good-elite QBs. The QB group is the best its ever been, I believe mainly to rule changes and the NFL finally allowing QB friendly system/verbiage/plays into its league. 

In fact after the rams did a 180 and went all-in the 2026 draft, which I thought was brilliant given the constant Stafford retiring rumors. While 10 years of sucking awaits the falcons if Penx is a bust. Browns and rams both have two 1st to land a QB in a deep pool of talented players. 

I don't feel its a Burns deal.

The dynamic between Dan Morgan and Brand Tilis was really good and quite encouraging 

Basically a hard-nosed, no-nonsense player / coach type working with a colossal football nerd whose spreadsheets could probably tell you what a player's favorite breakfast cereal was at a gven age 😕

("my analysis shows that around age seven or so he started to prefer Cheerios; had a brief flirtation with Corn Flakes but it didn't stick")

I get the XL pick, and I get the Brooks pick in round 2

I hope our first two picks do better in year one than those two. I was surprised we prioritized a rb over s considering the Brooks pick and the rico fa agency pick up. I'm glad they were true to their board and got their guys. Could be a great draft.

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

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
