See me in Dec when our defense is last in the league.

Kirwin left that part out didnt he..... :skep:

We HAVE glarring NEEDS, Peppers 16+ million is wooping our ass.

Not to mention that we HAVE NO DEPTH at OL......

We HAVE NEEDS......

not that we have to go sign every big name guy, but we NEED to fill some gaps or a less than repeat year is ahead.

I'm not really sure why so many have wanted us to do something in FA. If there is nothing out there you think you need, why sign somebody? Even if Peppers had signed his tender and were traded, I don't think the FO would have signed anybody. This is the mentality that has made us the fattest country in the world. Just because you can, does it mean you should? As I have said, and so have others, we will get somebody. I just happen to think it will be after the draft, not before.

I am expecting a big day on draft day.

If not I expect some big news around that weekend.

With our $$$$ issues we cant really afford a big FA splash. The Peppers trade will just let us back in the 1st round and some room to sign our guys.

Plus we always tend to pick up some folks who are "post draft" cuts...

Plus, lets be honest here. We haven't had the best of luck with FAs the last few years. Who was the last one that has really worked out?

just last year we signed muhsin muhammad, starting DE Tyler Brayton, and starting rg keydrick vincent

Maybe FAs are kind of like the stock market, over inflated. What if the Panthers are waiting for the hoopla and deep pockets to over sign marginal players? I am going to have to trust Fox and Hurney to do what they know best because last season we were in the same boat. A lot of people here were giving the FO a big WTF? for our trades and free agent pickups.

Be patient and lets see what happens.

That's what it looks like to me. It seems like a lot of fans want the FO to do something big in free agency just because.

Last year the Panthers went out and got an over-the-hill receiver that no one else wanted, a first round bust from the Raiders, and a few tons of offensive guards that used to have good games but who weren't really pursued by other teams. We turned that motley collection into three starters.

We will probably take the same approach this year on the defensive line as we did last year on the offensive line. Look for one good starter out of that activity. I'm assuming that Peppers plays as a Panther next year, and it will be another contract year for him so that's going to be solid. Is anyone seriously worried about our linebackers? The secondary is suspect at Lucas' spot but we have decent depth there.

Right now the Panthers are doing what they're supposed to be doing. You can say they've done nothing, but locking up a pro-bowl left tackle and a defensive end who didn't want to play here is something, and there's still a lot of time left.

If you were among the people who were cheering the Brayton signing last year and predicted great things from Vincent, then go ahead and complain about the lack of activity. Otherwise, just shut up and chill. :)

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
