Is anybody else getting tired of Rivera's love for Fua?

I already answered the Ginn question. Fua got a third of his reps with the first team.

 

No you didn't. How many of Ginn snaps were with Newton compare to Gettis and where is the link to this info???

 

And Fua shouldn't even get that after his performance in Philly.

Gettis played with the 1s. Just because he was lining up incorrectly, running the wrong routes, and not getting the ball doesn't mean he wasn't out there.

You make absolutely no sense. You're arguing for Gettis to get burn with the big boys.

Ginn played with Newton.

Gettis played with Clausen.

Your boy played with the best QB on the team this preseason. What more do you want?

 

This is why I should be able to insult you.

I'm on my phone so that's all I can show of the snap counts, the breakdowns are fifty pages long, I'm not uploading all of those.

Link it or it didn't happen.

Stop this BULLSHIT of trying to make facts without proof.

First off, whether I linked it or not, it did happen, and your recollection of events is so off that you may be the only person alive that came away convinced that Ginn stole all of Gettis' reps. Secondly, I did link to it, so drink a giant cup of shut the f*ck up already.

1. I'll wait for the day you can make me drank that cup.

 

2. I posted the questioned before you posted the link.

 

3. Your link doesn't show the breakdown of 1st team reps does it? Which was the orignial question.

 

I don't care about the reps with Jimmy or when Smitty wasn't playing.

I think with Rivera, if you give it your all, he's going to give you a chance until the end.  Evidently Fua has been trying as hard as he can to make the roster.

 

However, the end is coming soon and I don't think he's playing good enough to justify to keep him.  I expect to see him released sometime this week.

At the risk of sticking to the topic, I'm going to suggest that Fua actually knows the playbook.  And Rivera has to play somebody once he's done seeing what he wants to see from the guys who will actually make the team, right?  I'm saying he'll get cut, I don't know if he will make the team.  But if he can be relied on to stick with his assignments, then does it make sense to play him while you focus on other people, rather than risk an injury to one of your rookies?

    • 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.
