Week 5 Mic'd Up vs. Miami

[strato]

I watched it too. Biggest thing he didn’t quit. Made some throws  

I already knew he was a good guy. These things make it hard, when you show him in that positive a light. But the actual norm of his play cannot continue. It has to be better.

I didn’t appreciate this throw enough in real time 

I wonder who's responsibility the free rusher was. JT thought it was on the RB due to TE + RG going hard left, but maybe it was an RPO?

I love this for him 

This x10000

Whether or not he ends up being "the guy" it's always good to see Panthers players having a good time and competing well enough to take the win.

Can't wait for Princely to get mic'd up.

Limitations? AT had a career year here lol. Call him and ask him how hard it was playing with those limitations. 

Bryce debate aside, in what world did AT have a “career year” here? Lol

Ace my panther friend, please check ATs career stats and get back to your statement. 

I think the season you need to focus on is 2017.

He hadn't gone for over 1000yds since 2018.

2017 + 2018 were his best two seasons but there's no question that 2023 was his third best season. Over 100 catches which he accomplished on less targets than when he had last done it. He also had his two highest catch % seasons with Carolina.

Thielen would rather ride the pine than be here. Whatever his reasons. I view it as his wife pressured him but if he really wanted to stay he would be here.

Those two years, that was dam near 1st team all-pro standards. He was unstoppable, I think he was close to triple crown one of those. Ace it happens....

Raw yards is a silly thing to look at, he had very very similar per game yards numbers in 2020 and 2021 but with 14 and 10 TDs (in 15 and 13 games), compared to 4 with us in 17 games. He barely cracked 1000 with us in 17 games despite being the clear #1 target for a team for the first time in his career and was under 10 yards per reception. In no way, shape or form was that a career year for him. Decent compiling for a WR his age but that’s it. 
 

Absurd to claim that was a career year and credit Bryce with giving him a career year lol

Panthers passing YPG since 2020.

2020 - 19 out of 32

2021 - 30 out of 32

2022 - 30 out of 32

2023 - 32 out of 32

2024 - 30 out of 32

2025 - 21 out of 32

With Adam Thielen out of the picture we are fielding the most productive passing offense since 2020 so you guys who want to cape are going to have a pick one between the QB and the WR's. You can't keep saying the receivers are trash because clearly it's not the case. It clearly shows the investment we've made in surrounding our #1 overall pick with talent.

He stayed pretty composed after those turnovers, I would be cursing up a storm. Even after that big 4th down throw to Horn

[Daddy_Uncle]

You cannot hate his character, but he is holding the team back. There is so much we can't do because of his limitations. It just is what it is

Yah gotta be RB or Tremble

seemed like a slight delay and Tremble had locked in on other LB’er

Now you’d think the RB would be responsible for LB coming up middle and it looks like ETN’s first step was to do so which would leave Tremble with the backer who had the free run

What if your job said you could keep your salary, work next to no hours, and move back home?
