A bit annoyed with #89

Smith is a beast. He's under 5-9 so when he's beasting a DB it catches the refs eye. The holding call yesterday was BS because he just bull rushed the hell out of the guy and don't even get me started on the PI call.:mad:

Yep it was a good block, and that PI call was bullshit. Good makeup no call on Godfrey though for PI.

Oh I am serious. Everyone jumps on gross and all the other established players for making unveteran/costly plays. I am simply seeing the same thing with Smith.

Bullshit call and we won the game so who the fug cares. 89 is 89 deal with it, he may make mistakes but he redeems himself.

There's really no way for a WR to block on the edge without holding. If you watch any NFL game other than the Panthers you will see the same call at least once. If you are going to ask a WR to make those blocks, holds are going to happen. Especially if the RB changes directions or the play takes a long time to develop.

actually, I bash Jordan Gross because, well, he sucks.

you need to watch more LTs in the NFL then....

Gross is solid. That is why all this talk of needing to replace him is comical. Why take Kalil a few years to reach what Gross is doing most likely.....yeah, Kalil might have some better phyiscal tools but Gross is smarter/better than most credit him (there is a reason his peers/coaches are putting him into the Pro Bowl....and you can be certain the fan vote didn't skew that one)

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.

      It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter.

      QB 2026 (For the Young Haters)

      By Mage · Posted

      The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
