big strong fast with a howitzer and his last name is manning, but yeah its all hype at this point but I would bet against it.

No I get the measurables.  It’s just that he hasn’t done anything yet.

What he saying? 

Mostly just rambling nonsense.  A lot of commentators do it, but he just fills air with meaningless words when he has nothing to say.

I was way more impressed when I saw it live, I misjudged where they were on the field and thought it was more like a 58-59 yarder.  Nope, 52.

Yeah, I thought it looked gross lived but then when they showed where he kicked it from on the replay, it got worse.  That looked like fuging Eddy Piniero out there.

He's been really the only positive today. If I split hairs, maybe Etienne was a positive. Thornton was solid last week as well 

Etienne has definitely flashed. Sam Roberts as well imo. Ransom and Richardson are showing well for young guys but one of them needs to separate themselves from the other & Nick Scott.

Props to those of y'all still watching. I turned it off when Davis Mills looked like prime Peyton Manning patiently navigating the pocket before throwing an absolute strike over a crowded middle to convert 4th down. Like...

"passes to the man"

Are we complaining about a made field goal? Who cares how it looked? It cleared the crossbar from 52. Matthew Wright and Eddy Pineiro would've had to punt it from 48 yards to get there.

"Toro toro!  Wave the white flag and get out of bounds."

I love mike kaye, breath of fresh air from the other scared journalists that cover the team

Just nothing feels good today.  Even thinking back earlier in the game, the organization was hyping up Trevon Wallace too, and sure he finds the ball, but he was giving up a LOT of yardage at the point of contact today.  More than once.

Same ol panthers

Sometimes it's because of the QB and sometimes it's because the receiver isn't getting separation and even an in-stride throw comes replete with an immediate hip tackle.

For sure,  that’s why I said it’s just in part on BY.   Another part is Canales.  Every O he has been part of hasn’t been about setting up YAC. 

heck that one broken down play where BY ended up scrambling for 2?  WTF you running that horrible play in preseason for, for a team that needs to find a grove.  That’s the playcalling and staff not helping the team out in preseason.  Only 2 dudes running routes and they are both deep action to the same spot of the field.  Hate the design of that for this group and this setting

No. Dude, just no. LOL

Sanders had good separation and had to slow down allowing Stingley back into the play. Stop embarrassing yourself.

The throw wasn't terrible. It was catchable. But when you're throwing to a subpar starting TE covered by an All-Pro DB these are the results unless everything is perfect. I'm not even trashing Bryce here. He threw a catchable ball. This is why I say that you're coping. You're just not watching this like an educated football viewer.

Lol, YOU brought up the QB. All I said was calling that a “contested” catch was letting the TE off the hook for the obvious drop and you start going on about subpar qb this and all pro db that. Jeez if you’re going to try to take this snooty approach of attacking the person and not the argument you should at least try to avoid such obvious lies. Gee I wonder why this place is such a shitshow with mods like this. “That should have been a catch and the TE dropped it” - “Durr cope cope you not educate me know football”
