I was extremely upset that we did not go for it on fourth down. We were very lucky that the saints did not attempt a pass on their last third down

 

He talked about this on the radio afterwards and the way the 2:00 warning and timeouts worked he thought he could get the ball back with 1:40 left. The warning happened to soon (if you get me) and they got it back with 1:00 left.

Same. Was so disgusted I tossed the remote in the air lol

Good thing they gave up on getting a first down and icing it combined with the fact our D is NASTY.

I was very surprised they didn't throw it. They played to win for 58 minutes, why change it up then.

Just another example of how much this league has changed. A minute is way too much time to give an offense to march down the field.

Why would the aints even think about a pass in that situation? C'mon man.

They did all they could do to milk the clock. Left us with less than a minute. They had to think that they were in the driver seat after the way their D played us all game.

We did what they thought we couldn't. Go 70 yards with no TOs. Does not make their play calling wrong?

Folks are so upset we won, they even want the aints to be villains. Get it together folks.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
