Growl

Chark still let that ball get into his body.

Smith Marsette is another stupid fitterer trade. why is Tarik cohen still not active? If he was this out of shape maybe we shouldn’t have been the team to give him his big break in.

Burns with another garbage time sack

The parallels at the cast around Bryce and Stroud have been impossible to ignore. Houston punched it in twice with ease. We couldn’t get it once on three attempts.

how many 3rd down conversions have they gotten on this one drive

Another 3rd down sideline out route with the receiver making a play Gotta be tough to be anti Bryce right now

Wow. Same situation, same down and distance, same route concept. Difference was the player catching the ball. crazy that every Bryce hater has to sit and choke that down

it’s not like we didn’t already know this but if you can hit the out, the comeback, and the outside shoulder on the 9 then you have the requisite arm strength Bryce has done all three. Discussion’s over.

Sissy football by Hill

Throwing the ball on a rope for the intermediate out, not a good look for the peoples who entire evaluation is how hard the ball is thrown

lol what play did you want at that spot

Now being reported that he’s probable to play, which means the injury was legitimate. you wouldn’t give a guy a phantom injury if you’re trying to trade him.

he’s under contract for a few more seasons with only one semi-substantial cost-wise one next season haven’t watched him play recently but if he’s still playing at a high level and Tennessee is giving him away then it makes a lot of sense youre not going to get what he offers from whatever 6th round pick that fans pins so much of their hopes to, and Young needs to have the conviction that comes with a legitimate boundary receiver youre not going to fix the roster in one offseason and these are the kind of moves a building team needs to look in on

You can acquire players cheaper in season than you can in the off-season. If the right player who can be a legitimate long term piece is there for the right price then go ahead and make a trade. But they shouldn’t go fireselling their own guys. it’s a quick hit of dopamine for the fanbase to see the endless hope of a DRAFT PICK (while the player in question goes and becomes and MVP candidate) before reality comes missiling back to earth the following season when mid round picks play like mid round picks

yeah there’s this weird narrative of “trading away stuff is how things got so bad” the front office-either this one or the next- is going to be operating under the practical expectation that this is a young team, not a bad one. they need to be building. The only people who believe things should be completely torn down to the foundation are people who had flawed, emotional expectations for where a team with a rookie QB and an entirely new coaching staff should be

You can’t wade half way into the water and then get cold feet. They need to build a long term offense. Half measures and timidity after you’ve been aggressive would be disastrous. They need to be investigating.

we lead the league in pass attempts for some reason

He should’ve been regarded as a backup this season coming off the injury, allowing him to stay in game shape, still contribute, while not putting such a big workload on him, as you anticipated getting him back to full strength next season. His game is centered around being a quick twitch guy and with that asset diminished he was always going to struggle this season. Genuinely befuddling how they were so sure he was going to simply pick up where he left off.

yeah sure they’ll probably be bad for a few seasons. It happens. They’ve been one of the league’s most talented teams for a while, and it’s been because they’ve haven’t chained themselves to the salary cap, and they’ve had a lot of success to show for it. even if it gets to the point, and I’m not really sure exactly what people are expecting but it appears to be some fantastical dream amongst panthers fans that the league will step in, demand they start paying respect to the cap, and then they have to cut a bunch of guys and are now a bad team-EVEN IF IT GETS to that very unlikely point-who cares? Look at the window they’ve bought themselves.

if the “kIcK tHe CaN” philosophy buys you the kind of prolonged window the saints have had then by all means sign me up No offense but I don’t get how anyone is still making chicken analogies at this point

lol are you serious

Passed on a lot of great players. This forum went absolutely gaga over fitterer for this draft because they finally went and did what people wanted them to do: move down, stockpile lots of late picks, loads of cheap contracts went as expected. You don’t build a great team by having copious amounts of late picks. 9 dimes don’t equal a dollar.

they have him mostly lined up as a 5, team website depth charts are just for fans.

There’s no reason to move him. You’re not going to get anything for him in return that you wouldn’t get at this point next season if we’re still having this same discussion. Having him under control at low cost for an additional season outpaces the late pick you’d get for moving him.

pretty sure Wilson is a 5 and frankly if a team calls offering you a pass rusher entering his prime for a guy who isn’t part of the long term plan you take that deal frankly the panthers should also get a high pick with this trade
