I don't agree with stifling the confidence of a rookie pass rusher on a defense that gave up the most points in history last season. Unfortunately we won't be able to give opposing pass rushers a stern talking to about stripping the ball away from our QB. It's been an issue for us and it's something Bryce needs to clean up. I'd be much more focused on that as the head coach but it's not my job at stake.

Bro? You serious?

It truly amazes me that there are people in this fanbase so brazenly averse to simple realities.

I mean we're over here desperate AF to establish a culture. Really any kind of culture. And some of you need to have this explained to you why it looks pitiful to try and publicly drag a rookie over minor things like this.

You deserve a poverty franchise "bro".

our first rounder...

I told ya'll, he was going to make some absurd catches in camp that gets people buzzing because his hands are just off the charts good.

But THIS also wasn't quite what I was expecting, usually he's making stupid catches in practice when a QB misses him and he does his Inspector Gadget thing and his arm extends 10 feet, this was just crazy though for him to turn and have the water boy there in his way and still snag it.

It looks like some people around here have become so accustomed to the losing and milquetoastery of this franchise under the ownership of the Tepper's they don't even recognize that's what they've become. Sad times for the huddle.

I think you are looking waaaay too much into this. You don’t touch QBs in practice. If our coach only highlights that play more young players are going to try to replicate it. It was simply a greater effort, but remember we are not making contact yet reminder. If that ruins Princely’s confidence (which I doubt it does) he wasn’t going to make it anyway.

Yes.  This.  I know there have been fumble issues that need to be worked on but you don’t just let people lay the wood to your starting qb.  Imagine him getting hurt cause of a hit like this.  Talk about an embarrassment of a franchise.

Great play by the rookie.  Remember, don’t hit the QB.  How controversial is this?

If your idea of building a positive team culture is hitting the quarterback, then I have no words for you. Justin Fields just just went down by being pressured on a pass….. Anything can happen. Let’s lower that probability as low as possible.

Fields was touched? I'm not reading that anywhere.

Injuries happen in camp preseason and the regular season. And they do regularly to positions across the roster. Our backup QB was held out and sent back to the bench over a simple thumb sprain that happened away from the team. If it's going to happen it's going to happen. Going around whailing at rookies with a megaphone like lunatics isn't going to change the fact that Bryce Young is a small QB and he's going to get hit and he also has a tendency to turn the ball over. Focus on the things that ultimately matter and truly effect winning and losing.

Fumbling has been an issue with Bryce and yeah, maybe don’t try to damage the confidence of your rookie pass rusher. 

You're falling on deaf ears here man. These same people will be the first ones slinging all kinds of insults and obscenities in the gameday threads if and when the defense inevitably struggles just like they did all last season. Complaint after complaint after complaint after complaint about the defensive effort and how the defense didn't give a sh*t. It's hilarious.

thanks @Captain Morgan as always with the updates

I'm digging what I'm hearing about Demani Richardson.  He's the guy not talked about as much.  It seems they've got a good grip on what they have with him after a lot of playing time to close out 2024.  Seems to have trust and I'm hearing good stuff.    

 

I'm really excited for Demani, been awhile since we had a good UDFA

      Let's catch a pass in a meaningful game first. At least one.

      Something I noticed when researching Mello Dotson

      By TD alt · Posted

      If you weren't aware, we picked up another waived CB from the waiver wire, basically swapping M.J. Devonshire for Mello Dotson. Yeah it's not overly exciting stuff, but I'm just chilling. Anyway, I noticed Dotson on a PFF draft list that ranked the best remaining after day two was complete. He wasn't the only one though. https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2025-nfl-draft-top-5-remaining-players-at-every-position-after-day-2 3. Mello Dotson, Kansas Dotson is a steady, experienced cornerback with an adequate build for the position. His lack of true stickiness in coverage may limit him to more of a rotational or spot-starting role, but he has a place in the league, especially for teams that play more press and man coverage. 3. Mitchell Evans, Notre Dame Evans doesn't have the rare movement skills to set him apart as a potential top-60 pick in the NFL, but his floor is balanced and high as a TE3 with the potential to move into a contributing TE2 role due to reliable blocking and hands through contact. 5. Cam'Ron Jackson, Florida Jackson's massive 6-foot-6 and 328-pound frame is designed to clog the A-gaps and free up linebackers to make tackles. He's earned at least a 76.0 run-defense grade across the past three seasons. Teams in search of a late-round run stopper should be interested in Jackson, even if he is likely to be just an early-down player. 1. Lathan Ransom, Ohio State Toughness and tenacity are Ransom's calling cards, which he makes good use of in all facets of the game. While he may lack the tools some other prospects have, he has the instincts and awareness to make up for it. I just found it interesting, is all. Some want to downplay PFF, and in many ways, it should be taken with a grain of salt. But I've always said that it's a tool, and obviously it's very much in the minds of the Panthers now that Eric Eager is part of the the franchise, and the importance of PFF's analyses extends beyond the first and second rounds. It goes deep, all the way through---thorough!
