I mean, technically Grier was laid off due to downsizing. Could he go get unemployment?

Edit: nevermind

Cam Newton is available as well.

I like you. But this is the type of B.S. response to a serious issue that goes on here. Stereotyping issues go both ways (or any infinite numbers of ways).

poo. Is owning an F-150 a problem now? I'm in a middle class neighborhood and am one of probably three or four white families while the other 85% are POC. There are at least seven or eight F-150 owners in my neighborhood and I'm the only white guy that owns one. Guess we are all racist... For owning a truck...to pick up sticks and move things and stuff...

The offensive coordinator would know, as well, right?

If I post full lyrics to some choice rap songs on here, will mods remove them? If I post Elvis, Nat King Cole, or Chuck Berry lyrics will my post be removed? If disliking the vulgarity of rap music and the culture that some sub-categories within rap props up, I guess I may be racist. But I'm here to tell you, this doesn't fit the definition of racism, bigotry, or even discrimination. Is it possible that Cam could be distracted in practice while listening to music, which is why it seems like he has issues throwing guys open and anticipating routes in games? Unlikely considering the noise level at games would be similar to what you'd have with headphones. Does saying "rap" music make dude racist? No. What would make him racist is if he thought that listening to a genre typically associated with white people wouldn't be a problem.

Want to know who? Our red headed step child from the Saints, that's who. In literally a single minute of a preseason game his offense allowed Sam to look better than I ever saw him look in New York for a string of plays in crunch time. Sam got to play within the offense and execute the play call; in New York he was constantly forced to improvise and that was his highlight reel. Even if it was one half in a preseason game, Sam Darnold looks like a first round pick AND he is less than two years older than Justin Fields (whom everyone hob knobs). Based on timing, you would think that he was four years older than Trevor Lawrence but guess what, he's only two years and four months older than Lawrence. This is a massive advantage for us should it work out as if Darnold were a first round pick just last season. I haven't been this excited about a Panthers team since probably 2013.

Is the audible surprising? Who did Marshall play for at LSU for a year? Also, Darnolds throws in this game looked better than any single game I saw with the Jets. Even these preseason play calls make Adam Gase look like he should be the QB Coach for the UNC Tar Heels or something. Seriously, Sam didn't have to improvise to be good on Friday. It always seemed that his highlights in NY were improvisation.

Then...he will be leading all the rookies? I guess. The Panthers will go as the offensive line goes. Darnold will be what everyone thought he would be when he came out of USC.

Steve Smith is quite possibly the most iconic Panther of all time, good or bad. I'd say you do away with the play by play guy and just sit Kuechly and Smith up there.

How many people are members here who have yet to get the PhillyB experience? This is what I came here for 10 years ago; the PhillyB ESPECIAL! Now, we need our weekly Thursday or Friday post back Philly. Also, that was the smoothest I've seen a Panthers QB look since Steve Burlein.

I've never heard of him. I admittedly didn't watch as much NFL football in 2020 as I did in previous years. In all honesty, I'm for signing or trading for anyone that can help the team. If you believe McGovern can do it, and his cost is reasonable, I'd say go for it. For me, I just love the speed and length of Smith. He's almost a Kam Chancellor type of talent if used properly due to his measurables. With Chinn and Smith you'd almost have a Thomas/Chancellor dynamic. However we would be in a better position on the boundary with Horn than Seattle was with Sherman, in my opinion. Of course neither option will happen. And I don't believe that Snow is a Bradley or the other DC (forgot his name).

He has a Panther shirt on. So, it doesn't matter.

Neither Smith nor Vanderesch will be starting. I believe Smiths length and speed is better than anything that we currently have and his cap hit fits nicely in the newly vacated spot.

I mean, Lawrence is basically Jesus anyway, and I'm an App State/Panthers fan. If the Jaguars can build correctly, by Year 3 they may be stable enough to become a perennial playoff member since they play in the AFC South and have a guy with the highest ceiling since Luck.

You wrote that article, didn't you? That's what this is about. There is no controversy. Sam is the better QB. If PJ started this year, neither of them would be on the roster in 2022.

Its Sam... If PJ Walker is our starting QB then we will be drafting a QB in 2022.

This says, to me, that we are trading for Jalyn Smith from the Cowboys. They took Micah Parsons, who I wish we would've taken rather than Horn. To have a franchise capable QB and QB of the defense again.

He's one of the best defensive coaches in the league and 45% of Washington's front 7 has All-Pro talent? You give Rivera a quality GM and he hires a quality offensive coordinator and you'll see them dominate the East. Despite what many believe, defense still wins championships and the Football Team is on a path to have enough defensive talent to match the 2012 Seahawks.

And we somehow made it to a super bowl with Cotch, Brown, and Funchess at receiver, an old Jared Allen, two safeties that no one remembers, Star, KK and Josh Norman. Rivera coached the 2015 teams to wins despite the piss poor roster management and drafting of Gettlemen. It caught up to us every other year when our veteran journeymen role players moved on and there was no consistency because Gettlemens talent evaluation was awful. It's hard to have consistency when almost 75% of your draft picks were not contributors outright or as depth. So the only question is how much is Rivera at fault for the poor drafting? Our winning teams always overperformed their talent level whereas our losing seasons were more a product of our talent level playing to their proper ability. That is a GM issue, not coaching. Rivera was a good coach and one of the best defensive minds in the game. With a proper GM, don't be surprised to see Rivera win a Super Bowl in Washington before we do here. I don't say that to be cynical of our current staff but rather coaching wasn't the issue before.

The Panthers have never had back to back winning seasons. .546 is pretty much the mean. The last four years were spent with an injured quarterback after everyone seemed to be gunning for his head from the Super Bowl on.

Omgah...whatz we gonna do when Darnold loses his first preseason game...omgggg

And out come the dog whistles. First NFC South coach to win the Division 3 years in a row, Super Bowl, NFC Champions, consistent upper echelon defenses. Our biggest issue was not Rivera, it was Hurney and Gettlemen.

Lids and shorts is nothing. As they say, "when the pads come on, you find out who can play".
