According to our beat writer, Joe Person, its possible...

Russell Wilson said he met with the Panthers this week. Panthers possibly looking for a backup QB that can run same offense as Cam Newton. Wilson has the skills to run the read option, would be Cam's mini-me. With a later pick, would be interesting move.

I've looked at some of his highlight tapes, and he does look like he would be a great complement to Cam, should he ever go down. (God forbid) The biggest knock on Wilson is that he's 5'10". He's been compared to Doug Flutie. You be the judge. Click the link below. (I couldn't figure out how to embed the video. Sorry.)

Joe Person is the worst beat writer in the NFL. I don't know if I'd like the move. We have too many needs to waste a pick on a Cam's mini-me (dude is a midget as far as NFL QBs go). But late round picks are a crapshoot anyway (our 6th rounder from last year) so I wouldn't be pissed. I just wanted to take the time to say outwardly that Joe Person is a turd.

I watched every game Wilson played for his first 3 years, and almost all of them last year.

He's awesome and I'd love to have him on the Panthers, both as a Panthers fan and as an NC State alum. If he's around at our 5th rounder I hope we take him. It's not like 5th round picks generally become starters anyway.

I love Russell Wilson, and I called this in the other thread.

However, I only want him if its past the 5th rounder, and I am almost certain he wont be there. I think he goes off the board in the 3/4.

People concerned with height, he played behind the 4th tallest offensive line in the country this season.

Height is important, but some have found ways to overcome it.

Still, I hate to burn a pick this season on a QB.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers

      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.
