never saw it.

i haven't really been happy with him for years, though. don't think that you are alone in that and don't think it's a big deal that "nobody" agreed with you.

It's not like my feelings were hurt or anything. I just wish our fans could take a step back and look at our team/players, and be more subjective. The other thing that gets me is when everyone over-values newly drafted players. Like Hogan for instance.. why does everyone think that a 4th round rookie is going to come in and dominate the place? There is nothing wrong with optimism, but let's be realistic here. /rant

When we signed Seyi Ajirotutu.. everyone thought that he would be the starter by the end of the season.. my gawd.. if it were only that easy to pick up scrub players that were cut from other teams and turn them into starting calibur players in the span of 16 weeks..

Lout... Hogan may have been drafted in the 4th round but was widely regarded as a TOP 3 prospect before his injury/off field issues...

We have every right to be excited about Hogan.

Edit: I also think the coaching staff has done a terrific job on not rushing him into a losing season as well. Let him fully recuperate, and play when it counts next year. We should still draft a CB no later than the 2nd round IMO... Even assuming Hogan shakes out, we're 1 Gamble injury away from having another problem.

you're going a bit heavy throwing that word "everyone" around.

it's not as extreme as you are making it out to be.

also...are you saying we should be more subjective while complaining about people speculating and going on their opinion?

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By strato · Posted

      Well yeah. Last time vs NO if we had had good QB play and half ass pass pro it is a different game. And that is the story more often, in point of fact, than the two or three hero games everyone wants to use to define the player.  That box was so stacked against the run it was basically impossible to break through it, you had to go over and around. It is what we knew was gonna be employed by teams and we were unable to stop them from doing it.    I am real interested to see the first 3rd and 8 and see how NO defenses it in the back end. Because they can look at that Rams tape and learn, but will they have enough fear/respect that it can happen to them or will we need to prove it again before they do?   Most people don’t learn from others’ mistakes and  need to make their own.

      Interview Tillis with Jordan Rodrigue on team building. Interesting

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      I like that Tillis is so down to earth  we will see where it goes ill say something controversial on a day that, along with next week, determines the panthers 2025  and 2026 fate  he referenced ‘money ball’, statistics and self scouting multiple times. it really makes me feel that Bryce will be back regardless of what happens over the next 4 games as that is the smart move for financial stability but by no means does that guarantee Bryce anything past that.  They will improve year over year regardless of position or who is affected       however, they will do the appropriate diligence and not cut off their nose to spite their face….it won’t be an emotional decision…unlike us Huddlers….for example, if Young’s happy ass shits the bed today, I’ll be less than pleased ..particularly having seen what they will do and having a bye week.  Brandon Staley is a good defensive coordinator and former HC.  His defense is aging but he can still develop a good game plan
