I have been jokingly running my mouth to Eagles fans all weekend. They usually just look up and give me a "yeah." through a half-smile... I can see where your amusement comes from. A considerable amount of tiem Mondays is dedicated to hypin the night's game, but this has to be a struggle for even a seasoned analyst/announcer...

Im still going to watch all 60 minutes....

People will watch because of one Mr. Cameron Newton. He has become one of the more polarizing figures in sports. Many will be rooting for him to fall on his face. Many will be rooting for him to succeed. Many will be watching just because he makes their heart flutter (don't believe me just search his name on twitter, the ladies love Cam).

Nothing short of total domination will be a disappointment.

The NFL is spreading itself too thin with all these primetime games on Thursday, Sunday night and Monday. I know they like to focus on parity but there just arent enough good games every to fill all the primetime spots without making the early Sunday and afternoon games suffer

I agree 100%. There aren't enough games on Sunday, which sucks. The Thursday night thing is stupid.

people will watch it just because it's MNF. and as bad as it is this week, most who subject themselves to MNF week after week are used to the majority of them being bad games with bad teams, many of which you find yourself asking, "now why in the world would they have thought this would be a good game?" at least with this one you could kind of tell why they thought it would be interesting when they scheduled it...vick vs. newton. past vs. future. or some nonsense like that. just thinking espnstyle.

Yeah I was driving to work on Saturday morning and was listening to whatever national show was on ESPN or WFNZ and the guy called Monday "catch up on his DVR night" - LOL

This is a sh1t game but people are still going to watch. I've watched every Thursday game this year and they've been lame for the most part.

      Bryce by the numbers(emotionless post)

      By CRA · Posted

      His completion % wasn’t even high.  Think OP misstated a stat.  Bryce was 30th this week in completion %.  The bottom is where he has been every year in the NFL in that department.   you gotta dig real deep in analytics to make a Bryce argument

      The Panthers’ Bryce Young Problem is Getting Old

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      Agreed.  Setting protections is one of the more difficult things for an NFL QB to learn but I did see a lot of improvement over the past year.  It's still an issue but getting better.  Reich hung him out to dry in that aspect and almost got him killed. Once Canales gave him a hot read or option for blitzes and pressure he did much better.  The more experience he gets the better he'll get.  That's also another good reason to keep a strong oline.  Mitigates that a little bit.

      The Panthers’ Bryce Young Problem is Getting Old

      By carpanfan96 · Posted

      I'll just piggy back off what I said earlier here.    The problem with Bryce is and has always been his height combined with his arm. The reason he works so well ad-libbing is that he usually gets out of the pocket or allows the offensive line time to open throwing lanes which allows him to see the defense better, and manipulate the defense because of his legs which eliminates the need to read defense mostly.    The reason he doesn't work well in structure is because he can't make those reads at the line on what the defense is running and where to move protection, so he doesn't immediately know where to go with the ball based on coverages/ pressures so he runs the play exactly as it's called and goes through normal progressions 1-2-3.    He's gotten better at reading just based on Sundays game because he didn't nearly look as bad at it as he did last year and he didn't have AT to set lines and stuff for him.
