This week marks the 10th season of the Huddle

I registered the first incarnation of the Huddle back in 2003. I had no idea what it would eventually grow into... a huge pain in my ass.

 

 

Big thanks to everyone that has helped out over the past decade.

 

Big thanks to the admin and mod teams current and past. You are appreciated.

 

Big thanks to the rest of you, the huddlers, for sticking around and making this joint the most unique, obnoxious, offensive but ultimately likeable NFL community on the interwebs.

 

Would be great to mark the occasion with a Superbowl... no?

10 already eh?  Think I first joined in the fall of 04...but not sure!  Karly was a top cat and Pryd lured me here with her beauty!

 

Ah yes, Carly.... I need to dig up the pics from our shoot. There were some that were not suitable for the site....

I joined when I lived in Hellabama (between 2004-2007) and this site funneled all the panthers news and info into a single place. Had I only known  then that the time I saved from searching for different panthers articles would quickly be consumed by arguments over proper butter storage, creating a failed paranormal society, and beating a virgin in one-one basketball I would have done things a lot differently.

 

Thanks Zod

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
