Haha I love the title they gave this piece on the NFL.com front page.

 

This is a very long article analyzing our performance recently.

They're back!

That's what the NFL world is saying about the Carolina Panthers, who have reeled off three wins in four games to insert themselves into the conversation about possible playoff teams.

fug Bucky Brooks.

 

Oh wait, he said good stuff?

I'm new here...am I doing this right?

 

 

yeah that's pretty much what goes on around here.

 

For real though, Bucky Brooks used to be a Panthers scout, and went to Carolina, so he does have a soft spot for us I think. He does good work over there for the NFL though....not like some of the morons that are out there

Nice read.  Really liked this quote:

 

"Part of Newton's recent success can be attributed to his decision to finally take the check-down when deeper routes are covered. He's also scrambling more to pick up positive yards when receivers fail to come open downfield. This has allowed the Panthers to stay ahead of the chains and avoid the kinds of long-yardage situations that play into the hands of defenders."

 

Cam has started to understand the little things that make the big difference.  His play over the past three games has been beyond stellar.  I hope (and believe) he had gotten over the hump and is ready to consistently deliver wins.

no. bucky says good things about us quite frequently, esp. this year.

 

he's kind of a weekly fixture on the drive and usually is very positive about what's going on around here.

I keep looking at my calendar but it still say's today is Tuesday. FUG!!!

 

stare harder.

 

it moves quicker that way.

 

and if you focus on one tiny point of it and let it get a little blurry you'll see a unicorn riding a dolphin in 3D.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)

      looks like the Lions and Bangles should forget about the playoffs, trade everyone they can, and start over.
