I mean yes. But also he’s a former pro and knows the game better than 90% of people.

True maybe, but I admittedly don't necessarily pay NFL types as much deference as others, as over the years I've seen them be wrong aplenty, so much so that perhaps I'm just jaundiced, or at least callous, to some of their proclamations. I mean, after watching the game in earnest for somewhere around a half century, admittedly the eye test seems to take on, sometimes exaggerated, importance. You do get to know a thing or two about the game over that span as well and develop some insights that younger fans may not have. Moreover, keep in mind that players, coaches and execs disagree on many things football all the time, so there's a certain amount of dart throwing that is inherent within the beast.

Some of you people are so weird about this stuff. Here’s an idea, why don’t you go on social media, make sure your boss sees what you say, and start trashing the company you work for.

We actually need more team propagandists in the media, not less. Us being the only ones with this weird code about our former players and media members needing to not promote the team and players is how things like Derrick Brown not making the pro bowl happen.

If everyone agrees on everything all the time in a football forum, then that should tell you something. If people have varying degrees of disagreement and are constantly going back and forth, presenting statistics, information and knowledge based upon experience and the experience of those who are NFL types, that should tell you something also. Being a fan is not necessarily just about mindless cheerleading, although some fans do that. 

100% agree. That is also very different than objectivity.

He's a fan of the team but it's still no telling on where they stand with Bryce. If you ask me, there are serious  internal  conversations  from those that question Bryce. Usually Qbs the team is confident  about, you barely hear in year 4 of questions remaining. The team is going to see how year 4 looks  and go from that. I definitely  can tell they are adding some talent to that room off Canales  and Morgan  recent press conferences.

"We actually need more team propagandists in the media"

The last thing the decision makers of this franchise need is more people heaping unearned praise onto them 24/7. That's how you end up being irrelevant for a decade. Which we just did. How about let these folks actually prove any level of consistency.

Any decision maker making decisions based off what the media says, good or bad, isn't a good decision maker.

And remember how the vast majority of us here on this board spend a lot of time in the locker room, on the bench and going out to dinner with the current players and coaches of the team. Who better than us to have our fingers on the pulse of what's really happening in the real Panthers.

Sometimes our surety of statements around here gets so very, very thick.

Like I mentioned in another post, all players, coaches and execs don't agree all the time, so having your fingers on the pulse of the team because you know people isn't necessarily a litmus test for what is still ultimately an opinion.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
