Well this seems like a bad idea then

Yea the Jets defense knows it'll only take a few pressures and sacks to get Darnold rattled. Panthers O-Line is horrible so McCaffrey gonna need to take pressure off Darnold early with some dump offs.

Can we talk about that blatant no-call on the pushoff by Godwin at the end of the game?

There are other reasons I'm losing interest in the NFL than just strictly how much passing teams are doing now. 1) The games take way too long and the commercial breaks seem to get longer and louder. Actual NFL gameplay is only like 11 minutes total. Compared to MLS which I am getting more and more into, it's a crazy difference. MLS games have commercials only at halftime and it's constant action for 90+ minutes. 2) Accessibility to watch games out-of-market is stupidly cumbersome and expensive. NFL Sunday Ticket is not easy to sign up for unless you have full DirectTV. The NFL basically begs you to stream the games illegally. 3) The safety rules are getting over the top. These ticky tack unnecessary roughness penalties are getting ridiculous. I wanna see guys wreck an unprotected QB again. Holding calls seem to be on the way down though which helps scoring. 4) The NFL finds itself on a precise to either go full NBA social progressive or try to continue pandering to the military/right wing vibes of the past. Colin Kaepernick really did a number on the NFL and owners punished him for it. The NFL fanbase is definitely smaller than it was a few years ago 5) The Panthers have sucked ass since Tepper bought the team.

Elijah Moore gonna be the truth. I wanted the Panthers to draft him in the 2nd round. Donte gonna have to be on his game against him.

I like it so far except I've never liked Selena Gomez and find her trite existence to be annoying.

I think he gets another shot somewhere this season. There's bound to be an injury somewhere along the line on a contending team. What better option than Cam? His vax status is the biggest concern right now.

I bet Brady's hair costs more than Drew's.

Brady is hopped up on umbilical cords tonight

I’m expecting him to be disruptive and open up plays for guys like Burns and Reddick

Samuel peaked at the right time during a contract year. I bet he’s never as good as he was last year again

By his stats on the Jets alone, he's in the conversation. He can quickly change that narrative though.

Dak and CMC are the top candidates for CPOY. Burns could put up 20+ says with help from Reddick and others. OROY will be Najee Harris. Agree with Parsons being DROY.

Good for him. I think being cut was just what he needed to get his head on straight.

Pharoh Cooper is still a FA. I mean if they're rolling CMC back there to return punts Week 1 of the season, they made a mistake.

I hope so. There's a chance Darnold becomes a serviceable starting QB in the NFL. He has one of the best WR and RB groups in the NFL to support him. Unfortunately the offensive line is bottom 1/3 in the NFL.

Anything under 7-8 wins this season will be considered a failure of a season IMO. And that failure will probably rest on one player - Sam Darnold. If he even plays at an average level, this team will compete for a playoff spot. If Darnold fails…and we all know the team didn’t bring in another starting option, it’s going to be an awful, terrible, miserable season.

I don't even know who the for sure leaders on this team are anymore outside of probably CMC and Shaq.

You might not be wrong about that. If the team starts winning, maybe we see more insight from reporters.

Quality of reporting on the Panthers is at an all time low IMO. Unless you pay for the Athletic content you're just getting fluff pieces for players who are about to get cut.

Panthers 27 Jets 17 Panthers defense does a good job shutting down Wilson but do break down and allow for one long TD pass to rookie Elijah Moore who beats Donte Jackson. Darnold starts slow and early on the Jets look like they might win the game. Darnold turns it on after settling down and the Panthers pull away in the second half.

I mean, I get the Panthers aren't on the same level as like the Patriots, Steelers, Packers, etc. But saying we're on the same level as the Jets shows how delusional Jets fans are about their own level of pathetic.... The Jets are one of the worst franchises in the NFL over the last 50 years. Since 1970, the Jets have a paltry record of 341-449-2, and only 12 playoff appearances. Since 1970. 12 in 50 years. They make the playoffs an average of under 1 out of every 4 seasons. The Panthers are average. Since 1995, the Panthers have a record of 200-215-1, and 8 playoff appearances. The thing that really sets the Panthers apart are two Superbowl appearances in the last 18 years. The Jets cannot say the same. So let's just put that ridiculously wrong comment from an idiotic Jets fan to bed, forever.

I don’t think any other team’s fanbase realizes how much better the defense will be this season. Zach Wilson is going to have a long day.

He did it in college at least

Whitehead should have been cut in like Week 5 last season.
