Little talk of the HUGE screen TD pass to Turner


CRA

Recommended Posts

That was huge.....and obvious pass interference by Tony G to set it up....

Hometown and HOF player no call.

The more I look at this game, the more it is obvious the better team on Sunday didn't get the win. But if they play like this from here on out.....we shouldn't lose many

I agree. But the 24 hour rule is past. Time for the winning streak to start. First up, Seattle.

The personal foul on Godfrey was BS as well. That was textbook tackling. Oh and Phillips was in the game on that screen play and he totally missed Turner, which was his man. The effort by Gamble on that play was mind blowing. I'm talking benched at the end of '10 type of disappointment.

Yup they just talked about that to Rivera on Moving the Chains(he response was No Comment pretty much).

As for moving forward; consistency is the key. We have been too up and down so far and in order to win many games you can't be laying eggs one week and playing awesome the next. I hope them play the way they are capable the rest of the way.

Haruki missed the would-be td saving tackle.

Expecting Nakamura to make a td saving tackle is the problem. I work with a former Panthers safety (not going to tell you which one, because the football team I work for monitors my web access closely) and we were talking today about the last few weeks. He straight up said that Nakamura cannot start in this league. Free Safety's need to have a center field type of mentality where they always know where the ball is going to drop, then the football aspect comes into the scenario where the safety has to go up and intercept or knock down the ball at its highest point.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
