This Day in Football: Happy B-Day, Jordan Gross


Recommended Posts

The Panther offensive tackle was born on this date, July 20th, in 1980. Jordan Gross was the 8th overall pick in the 2003 NFL Draft, and has earned two trips to the Pro Bowl in his time with the Panthers. He anchors the left side of a talented offensive line that includes fellow Pro Bowler Ryan Kalil.

Before last year, Gross only had to run block for the two-headed monster of running backs DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart. Now that Cam Newton has arrived, Gross has his work cut out for him. On his birthday, we look back at when he was wired-for-sound during the Week 11 matchup against the Lions in 2008:

    • This was entertaining af lol. The Good thing is he’ll be making a bunch more crash out videos before the season ends.
    • I haven't seen much indication of a connection yet. He isn't lacking for targets. as he is the 2nd most targeted receiver on the team so far. He does have the 3rd highest QB Rating on targets, though. Behind only Chuba and Evans.
    • Shutting out the Falcons is still a uniter for the fanbase for the most part. It's just not in the way it used to be or what it once was for  multiple reasons. People who feel like they aren't seeing enough rejoice over it are missing the point. Instances like this would carry more weight if they were more frequent against our rivals for one. For two. This place also as has been noted before has taken on an echo chamber effect the last several years where all the losing has given way to factions of fans either fully apathetic or fully doubling and tripling down in defense of the powers that be and moves and decisions that have been made. And as a result from that the huddle has also moved to a distinct complete lack of outside views and chatter that in the past had been a source of change of pace entertainment and also more importantly a uniting force for fans here to rally around each other in opposition to. We used to have a number of Falcons fans visiting here over the years and driving home how much we dislike them. Same with the Saints. We even had some visiting Bucs fans from time to time. That's all long gone. Until we get back to instances like this becoming more commonplace nothing will change.
