Both of the high profile games today were completely dominated by defense. 14-7 and 17-10. And those games were supposed to feature three '26 1st round QBs including the slam dunk #1 overall pick.

Not uncommon for week 1 games. Especially against good defenses. It’s why I prefer my team play these small schools week 1 if they are going to play them. Gives the offense time to get calibrated.

Yea, offenses usually take time to get in sync vs. the organized chaos that is defense 😛

Was trying to remember where this came from and then it hit me... buddy of mine that was recruited to play LT for a D1 school (he quickly realized he did not want to do that grind and ended up grinding to be a pharmacist instead). He was telling me how it was insane to have assignments and then these pitbulls in front of you on the DL are literally hopping and rolling over one another to change where they're lined up.

Dudes in the trenches are built different... not quite as crazy as the animals that love special teams, those dudes are crazy crazy 😂

Well, Clemson just couldn’t afford to lose their #1 WR that early in the game.

overall, thoughts are generally the same.  This season was going to come down to two things….can they run the ball and stop the run.  I thought the D was actually okay enough.  

Cade going to catch the heat but….  It’s the run game.  Lead RB had 5 carries (9 RB carries overall) in a game that was tied 10-10 in the 4th.    Cade ain’t that good enough to carry a game like that and be out in that spot.  

still think they will figure out the run but that was the worst part of a tough week 1 matchup.  Zero time to figure that weakness out 

Clemson can afford that loss.  It’s a an ACC championship world for the ACC primarily

Yep. Way too early to evaluate anybody at this point, especially quarterbacks.

I agree you don’t who is what this early… and while I don’t think he will be the best college quarterback….Sellars is really the only one as you look to the next draft who I think really has the tools that make you think be might be special at the next level as of right now.

Agree with Allar looking like he has it all. But every time I saw him play last year it felt as if something was missing. Coming back for one more year was a good choice. Will be interesting to see if he takes the next step this year.

      Best Way to Watch Games this Season??

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      Sunday Ticket is now offering a monthly subscription if you're not interested in subscribing for the full package Keep in mind that the full package will be less expensive than getting billed monthly for the same timeframe.  But for a one-off month situation? Certainly an option to consider they also don't seem to mind if 2 households share the same Sunday Ticket login. If you call and ask for discounts, they kinda allude to "do you have a friend you can share the cost with" in the conversation

      Best Way to Watch Games this Season??

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      Watching ALL the games will require: Antenna or cable access to local broadcast partners to view the games of the local team. Due to blackout restrictions, the local games will not be available on Sunday Ticket.  What this means is that you DON'T NEED Sunday Ticket to view those local team's games. All games for a local team will ALWAYS be available on a local broadcast partner, no subscription required I've had success streaming the evening Sunday and Monday national games directly off the NFL/NBC/ABC websites, no subscription required. That said, ESPN may require login via your cable provider account - but it's included in your cable fee, so have fun with that.  NBC is available for free via antenna (or avail via cable, take your pick -- and ABC has been simulcasting the ESPN games, so that's also an antenna/free optio. The Peacock and Netflix exclusive games will require subscriptions to those services if the teams are not your local team YouTube will broadcast the Brazil game free  NFL Network for those random thursday games that aren't your local team... until the ESPN partnership comes into play, in which case your ESPN subscription should give you access (lots of assumptions with this bullet) Everything else is pretty much Sunday Ticket or go to your local bar I may have missed one, but the general gist is above In short, don't believe the online influences who say you need to purchase a full-year subscription to a service to watch "all" the NFL games (ie full year of Peacock). Because you don't need a full-year sub.   So no -- there is not a single service that will let you watch ALL the games Sunday Ticket will only cover you only for the sunday daytime games.

      Aaaaaaand... ND immediately throws an INT. Tried to run that same screen they've ran a dozen times tonight and Miami had two defenders sitting on it and he threw it anyway.
