This is exciting stuff... Sounds like we will actually utilize all of his abilities this year...

Great videos on the page as well...

The jokes about Armanti Edwards are going to come to a screeching halt.

Not only has Edwards (@armantiedwards) looked good as a receiver and punt returner, but Head Coach Ron Rivera stated that he’s excited about what Edwards has done thus far in camp.

“With what Armanti has done and some of the things he is showing us, he deserves an opportunity,” Rivera said on Thursday. “We’ll find places to put him on the field. I’m real excited about him, real intrigued by his abilities.”

we finally have a coach that knows how to utilize dynamic players. I wasn't a fan of the armanti pick but I'm excited that he's improved

besides helping the Panthers, the biggest reason I want to see him succeed is to shut that fugstick John Fox up. legit feel bad for Denver fans that they have to put up with him for the next couple years.

I've always been impressed with AE's speed and elusiveness on the field, but his hands were unreliable. If he's improved his hand-eye coordination, and it appears he has, then of course he needs to be on the field. I'm looking forward to seeing him in pre-season, which is fast approaching.

once again i cant help but lol at the idiots who mercilessly crucified hurney over not getting production out of a first year project player

if he blows up and ends up being a pro-bowler the mods should go back and find out who the biggest loudmouths were and permanently change their avatars to really gay stuff

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
