Practice times = moving target

...and on top of all that, they closed practice to the media (which I know is commonplace in the NFL) so they must have been concerned at some level about information being leaked from practice.

It's funny because they cover up the fence surrounding the practice fields, but it's a material you can pretty easily see through and several times last year I would walk right up to the gate where the players enter and watch through a break in the fence where there was no covering... not once did anyone ever tell me to back up or challenge me in any other way.

If you did want to scout Panthers practices last year, it would have been very easy based on my experiences.

There was no need to scout us...we were starting :jc:

EDIT: holderoftruth beat me to it.

True, but the only thing worse then running a vanilla offense and defense is having the opponent scout your practices leading up to the game so they know exactly which plays in your vanilla offense and defense you're planning to run that week.

They could have known that from watching any game tape. Nothing ever changed.

    • I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move 
    • While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
