What was there to say.

We lost, uh by a lot this week. And uh, we plan to lose by less next week.

In 08 there was a lot to talk about, but it was still always fox speak, and the last couple minutes they literally just did small talk. Hows the fam, your golf game, and other BS. It was with Tim Ryan and Pat Kirwan.

Cool thing is that Rivera was on the Drive show (FNZ afternoons) just yesterday, so he's completely accessible, and you can tell he's not hiding anything, or scared to death of saying something that could be twisted or misconstrued.

Fox would give nothing, and that's likely why he wasn't on much - you weren't going to get anything from him, so why bother. Better to just listen to fans bitch over the phone.

From what I've read, Andy Reid is forthcoming like that, though there was word a while back that he might change because some reporter pissed him off.

I understand why teams are secretive about some things, but I like that Rivera doesn't act like this I international espionage and national security.

Also love that there's no longer a gag rule on coordinators.

Someone who's lived in this area way longer than I have tell me this. Did Fox - or any of the prior coaches for that matter - ever get on local sports radio much?

yes, early in his tenure

I don't know what you mean by "much"...but he did do it.

Panthers CB Darius Butler remains in Fla., where his newborn daughter had heart surgery Thurs. Butler is questionable. If he doesn't play...

R.J. Stanford will be the Panthers' third corner, per Ron Rivera. Panthers could be thin in secondary: S Jordan Pugh (head) is doubtful.

Pretty sure Fox didn't, or not much anyway. Hurney did a little in the past, during the Fox era. Siefert - never. Can't remember if Capers did.

Its cool that Rivera does that.

On Monday nights at the stadium for Panthers Talk, Fox always called in (at least the past 3 years) but Rivera is there in person each week.

      Panthers re-signing P Sam Martin

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Sam Martin   CARPunter#6 Panthers re-signed P Sam Martin to a two-year contract. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Martin’s deal is up to $5 million. Martin joined the Panthers last season on a one-year deal and wound up booting 56 punts for an average of 47.2 yards per punt. Martin is a 13-year vet of the league who has spent time with four different franchises. He landed a career-best 48.2 percent of his kicks inside his opponent’s 20-yard line last season.

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      By Basbear · Posted

      Surprised CB is that low.  19th is odd spot. For many recent drafts, teams only felt there were around 14 first round players.  So to many 19 is just an early second and doesn't hold the value of a first.  If you go off- the smart path of LT, QB, edge, WR, CB, etc. Whatever your OG, Safety, ILB, etc needs to be a difference maker, that's the key point. I've said the 8th best edge is better than the 1st safety. Same for QB and even WRs. You should 100% factor in position value.  MHS you've been wanting a FS, let me tell you its super difficult to be a difference making FS. You're just sooo farrrr away from the action and the end result most times. If you're in the play, defense made mistakes in order. Now to talk out of both sides, maaaaaann that white boy from Oregon....I thought he crushed the combine and honestly that alone made me rethink "is he worth 19 now?!?!" he's now in the discussion for me, but still below others.    Plus I feel TE is vastly underrated in value terms. But looking at the last 20 years of TEs in the first, its down right bad. You're better like X10 better drafting one in 4th or 5th.
