Says Bell to compete at left tackle

Young players will complete at Safety with Harper.....didn't mention Godfrey until asked

Says DG took the media hit for 89....said it was time for a change

Cam will be back and forth between school and Camp until ready to go

Feels Cason and young guys will decide the CB position

Panthers not done upgrading roster...draft and June cuts next

That's it basically

SO IN OTHER WORDS:

 

-Bell will take his suckage to the other side and still get credit for nothing

-Godfrey is done in Carolina

-SS was indeed a problem

-We don't plan on RG3ing Cam

-Everyone named Josh survives

-Godfrey cut will bring in either some Oline help or a washed up WR if we don't hit on our draft.... or maybe another LB

-That's it basically

 

 

 

Well at least our defense is solid! No way we get anything other than WR/OL is the first 4 rounds!

This is how you turn a roster into a consistent winner or if you don't know what you're doing, a dumpster fire.

 

Now that the shock of the Smitty situation has died down, I'm leaning towards winner.

so that's twice now that godfrey was mentioned only because someone pressed the issue

exactly... I will say this, i feel better about Mikell and Godfrey in comparison to Harper. Harper only makes me like the enemy intel. However that's crazy money under Godrey's contract. Marty McFly was on that good stuff that year! smh

Byron Bell still in a panthers uniform tho!

And now playing at LT I mean wtf game tape do they watch? Bell should of retired after Mario Williams beat his ass like a pee wee player in weeks two, it's embarrassing the way Cams being sold short again in both protection and weapons

Not defending Bell a whole lot here but some of the sacks weren't his fault. When Cam feels the pressure from the right he rolls out without looking at the defender. I guess this comes from not trusting Byron. Bells job is to push the defender out and behind the quarterback to give him that last second to throw it. Can't do that whenever Cam is rolling out real big trying to make a play. But also, a lot of the sacks came from Bell getting beat. Hopefully he has some major transformation in the offseason and kicks ass at LT.

Rivera's comments in general concerning Smitty are annoying. He needs to not have anything negative to say about him. If smith isn't on the team last season im 110% sure he doesn't even have a job here anymore so how dare he?! (Don't waste your time debating me btw). I have no problem w/ them moving on at this point but these little back handed comments...

The buffalo game was the icing on the cake for Bells total performance he's horrific as wouldn't start anywhere else in the league, he's backup at best! Not athletic enough to play the position in mine and many others opinions, you want to suck off riveras every decision so be it but come back to me after a few games when bells benched or moed back to RT because the move has failure written all over it.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
