All good mang! I've done the same thing two or three times this offseason after you've already gotten a thread up and going. 😂

He was very, very, VERY lucky his foot didn't plant in that turf. 

I've not been impressed with anything I've seen from him but don't want to see anyone fug up their career. And that looked bad in real time. I said a little "thank ya Jesus" when he came out of the blue tent with his helmet instead of on a cart.

The following is a real story- I dropped something I was trying to repair on a carpet area and dropped down on all fours in order to find the piece of plastic. Incoming knee pain, {fug off you're not winning this time!!!} about 1:39 seconds past of which I was in level 9 pain for 1:25 of it. I ended up stretching my MCL and have been limping for 14 days now. I dont even want to lift my leg high enough to put on my reef sandals. It's so pitiful, I may die from the cringe.......

Threw the preseason offensive snap counts into a spreadsheet and found some data points that I thought were interesting:

  • Brycen Tremayne saw a snap increase of 15. The only other offensive player that saw a significant snap increase that wasn't new/returning was David Moore (11).
  • Jimmy Horn Jr saw the largest decrease in snap counts (-12) without a major change in his circumstances. TMac (-17) is nursing a sore hamstring, Coker (-29) was sick, Dalton (-20) got hurt, and Mays (-13) saw time as a starter and was no longer competing for center.
  • Only offensive skills' players with more snaps than Tremayne (41) is Moore (43).
  • Very close total offensive snap counts for Etienne (37), Evans (36), Horn Jr (36), and Mitchell (35).
  • Two of the bottom five offensive snap counts are held by Emani Bailey (11) and Jacolby George (11). That caught my eye considering the news about George getting a pretty sweet deal for a UDFA and rumbles about Bailey looking good in what few touches he had gotten in practice + preseason. Possibly hiding them to stash on the practice squad, or maybe not doing what they need to on ST?
  • Walton (64), Kingston (59), and Carter (59) are the third through fifth highest snap counts behind Nijman (78) and BC (76). Likely all competing for that 9th spot or to make a case for the team to take a 10th OL.

Last practice of training camp today!!!

  • Padded practice
  • BB3, TMac, Scourton, and Tremble all working with trainers
  • DJ Johnson not practicing today
  • Zavala back in pads
  • Dalton looks to be fine throwing but still has his arm in a sleeve
  • Canales made the offense run two sprints after the first portion of team drills. Wasn't happy with the execution.

If the offense is having problems moving the ball against this defense...

    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
    • According to Scott Fowler, in an article about former Panthers announcer applying for a job with the Ravens... what that job pays, incidentally, when the Ravens posted it publicly they said the salary would be $4,000 to $5,000 per game. An NFL season consists of 20-24 games, including the preseason and potential playoff games, so it will end up somewhere between $80,000 and $120,000 a year. The person hired will be an independent contractor, which is commonplace in the NFL these days for team broadcasters, and also have other radio and TV hosting assignments.  https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article315839800.html
