Did the Tinderbox and the Panthers section merge and I didn't know about it? This is acceptable here?

 

I was out of line and should not have made the abortion comment....for that I apologize.

 

 

However, your initial post calling me out about using homer and excuse in the same thread was absolutely a shot across my brow and was an intentional barb.....so, don't play all innocent now.

If we don't address the RG spot, the more worried I am about Seattle, and the entire season for that matter.

 

Agreed....

 

We either need a stronger RG to compensate for a below avg RT.  Or, a stronger RT to compensate for a below avg. RB.

 

Right now I believe we have a below avg RG and RT.

 

I would prefer both being upgraded, but that may be too much to ask for.

As always, teams with 4 or 5 valuable interior lineman will have to cut ties with one before the season starts. Where Gettleman's strength plays to the Panthers advantage is his ability to find these good discarded players who were possibly in the wrong scheme or bad situation.

Gettleman has given me no reason to think he will drop the ball here. We must now have patience. (He knew RG was an issue when he drafted Kugbila).

"But" and "However" - Two words that make an apology not an apology.

 

Back to the football.

 

I absolutely apologized for the one comment...it was out of line.

 

I also stated why I got so snarky....does not change the validity of the apology.

 

Carry on.

QB Cam Newton consistently hitting his targets today. Has found Ted Ginn multiple times and hit Brandon LaFell on a nice deep ball.

Everyone is talking about the O-line, rightfully so, but I did zero in on the fact that our receiving corps seems to be what many of us thought they were. Like I have harped on for years now: we are but one Smitty injury away from seeming disaster.

At 3pm today, we need to come on one accord, face the sun, kneel down in prayer and pray that Smitty gets through the season without injury... :P

I am thinking that it will be easier to fix the line, even if we don't do anything but get Wharton, but WTF are we gonna do at receiver? Hopefully Adams, Bersin or whoever can have a great showing with the first team. I still don't believe it will be enough though. With Zod's remarks about every TE not named Olsen being basicaly nondescript, we could always gamble the vet minimum on Kellen Winslow.

I am trying not to go all Chicken Little, but it makes me nervous hearing tweets that belie my greatest fear.

We've been a Steve Smith injury away from a completely inept offense for ten years. However, one could argue that the Lions are a Calvin Johnson injury away from an inept offense as well. When you've got a marquee WR as the centerpiece of your offense that's a risk you take.

      Jabrill Peppers Available

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.

      Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.
