NFL.com mock draft: Panthers trade up for Reuben Bain
SmokinwithWilly replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
19 to 11 won't be cheap and frankly we still have too many holes to go trading up. We're going to need out 2nd and 3rd rounders. -
Official Carolina Huddle Super Bowl LX Thread
SmokinwithWilly replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
Huge QB contracts really hurt the team in the long run. Hard to build a complete team when so much cap is tied up in one spot. Brady kept his cap hit lower so other players could be brought in. Granted he was compensated in other ways. The QB contracts are almost what the rookie contracts used to be, a weight around the neck of the team that drag you down. -
I'm not a Geno fan, but LV had the worst Oline I've seen in a long time. Jeanty had a little over 800 of his 975 yards after contact. That's insanely bad blocking. I don't want Geno here, but I can't fault anyone for looking like complete ass behind that poo show.

We could have built a good team with Fitt. Just do the opposite of whatever he wanted to do. -

Their offensive line got owned tonight. That made all the difference. -

Lol. Seahawks fans are a special breed of asshole. Never met a group that deserved to be punched in the taint repeatedly more, except maybe Bruins fans. -

I live in the PNW. I'm going to have to hear about this nonstop for the next 4 months. -

Happy for Sam. Who would have thought he ends up as a SB champion after having Adam Gase and Matt Rhule as his first 2 head coaches. -

They're not letting him do what he does. Why on earth you stop running him once you get to the SB is beyond me. -

He's got Mike Shula in his ear helping call plays. -

Concussion specialist following him. He'll be back with 2 minutes to go. -

JSN headed down the tunnel. Not good. -
Didn't say that he did. He's obviously got issues. It just struck me with the second part of his comment that he doesn't get the ball where he can do much with it. That's all.
-
Gotta wonder how much Bryce affects him too. XL strikes me as a guy that relies on game rhythm to get his poo going. Bryce is about as inconsistent as a QB can get. That said, he seriously needs to focus on his game and catching the damn ball. A WR that can't catch is useless.
-
No it isn't but it's a start to determining whether or not he's worth extending. The worst thing we can have is inconsistentcy. If he's consistently progressing, even if he has a turd of a game every now and again, that's something you can judge and measure. Up and down games every other week make it impossible to do and we certainly can't pay 40m or more a season for that.

How about we start with 2 franchise QB performances back to back.

Probably was told by his wife to go do something before he drove her nuts or else she was going to take Tepper's money and go crazy loading their master bedroom full of beanie babies and care bears.

I think they'll see last year as an oddity in 1 score wins and put our close game win total back down to would be average which is 6. After losing Icky and Rico, I think they drop us to 5.5. Our offense was not impressive and I doubt Vegas is as infatuated with Bryce as the media and Carolina is.
-
And if you factor in having the likely OROY that makes it even scarier. DC is not an offensive mastermind. But his offense is definitely offensive.
-
They need to turn the pro bowl into a skills contest that somehow forms some American Gladiator type event. Now that would be some fun shot to watch.

REPORT: Cade Mays will hit the free-agent market
SmokinwithWilly replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
If I remember correctly, we thought Jerry Jones was going to take Brooks so we traded up to take him. I wanted Frazier, no secret there, but we also needed an edge rusher, LB, safety, CB, pretty much everything other than DB and Horn. That's why I said we could have addressed a pass catching RB in FA if that's what it was thought Bryce needed to be successful. Even if it was a 1 year contract, there's always another available the next year. Rico is a perfect example. We just had too many long term holes to fill, especially on defense, to use that pick on an injured RB. Like I said, I get the logic of why and the likely mandate from Tepper, which is an entirely different problem with an owner dictating how a GM needs to build the team, and then is that GM really qualified or just a front guy. But when you look at the rest of the team, even if Brooks was 100%, we had just too many damn holes and we had already spent a chunk of our FA cap on Hunt and Lewis,and a 1st on XL. At some point Bryce has to elevate the players around him if he's going to be the guy. -
REPORT: Cade Mays will hit the free-agent market
SmokinwithWilly replied to TheSpecialJuan's topic in Carolina Panthers
I get it but it was still the wrong approach. Need a pass catching back, get one in FA. They're out there. Fill the holes that got you to a 2-15 record with starting caliber draft picks. Just about everything that has been done over the past 3 years has been to prop up Bryce and he still barely got to 3k yards. Part of why I'm still not sold on Dan. Just some really questionable at best team building strategies. The draft results this year were better, but overall, at the end of the season, I don't know that the team is really that much better from when he started. We were a 6 win team that got lucky GB couldn't score on 6 trips into the RZ and the Jets were a train wreck. 16 and 13 point offensive outputs aren't going to usually result in wins. -

I loved his approach to cap he'll Hurney left us with. He also called time on a couple guys who were aging out of their contract wants. That was the good. The rest, he was just an ass and nobody wanted to see shorts hiked up that high on him ever. They're shorts, not a bra. Thank God one of the twins didn't fall out for the world to see.
