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

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
