  1. best o line on paper since probably 2013
  2. Guess we know who was offered in the Watson trade.
  3. 22 months pursuing a player, staying involved during a massive sex pest scandal, going out of their way to signal they’d do anything and trade anyone to acquire him, then him just blowing you off at the 11th hour for a team without wife receivers or a team that waved a wand to create cap space. Incredible. fuging incredible.
  4. I was in the stands for 7 of them. I missed the patriots game with minor surgery. step back son
  5. A new all time low for the panthers, if we’re being honest.
  6. How does Rhule not resign after all of this, especially if they don’t get Watson
  7. you leak in finance, especially from a position of strength (read money) to scare off other potential actors from getting involved and driving up/down a price or whatever. if it's really planned leaks from the panthers ownership/fo, then it's tepper acting like he did in previous roles of course this doesn't work at all when he can't buy his way out of a problem
  8. I officially do not want Watson on this team and I hate this trade and everything it could be. That said, I would be way more upset about losing Chinn than Burns. I don't think Burns is going to hold up in the NFL, he got run all over last season, he was constantly out of position. I think we've already seen his peak.
  9. walterfootball has been around for over a decade and their twitter has fewer followers than like those girls that predict crypto based on tarot cards
  10. To be fair there absolutely was a huge “sign/trade for Mario Williams” contingent on here
  11. i mean, yeah but sending darnold back out there, improved line or not, is telling the fans, coaches, and players that you have no intention of winning games this year. that we're just going to see if rhule can make a miracle happen, and if not he's fired 1 minutes into the team's bye week. not sure how realistic that it is but i'd be all for it
  12. he committed to northern iowa his junior year and never had another offer. He only weighed 230 his Senior year of high school which is fuging nuts. https://www.ncsasports.org/football-recruiting/iowa/mason-city/newman-catholic-high-school/trevor-penning i think he only switched to offensive tackle his senior year because in the other link it has him listed as a TE/DE. Rivals has him as an OT. https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/2017/trevor-penning-279828 seems like other factors here about him not going to a bigger school.
  13. i love watching him just throw people around at the end of every play powerful Taylor Lewan vibes.
  14. Mitchell "titty kisser" Trubisky is the best play for the Carolina Panthers in 2022. It is not a perfect situation, but you play the cards you're dealt. Situation - Panthers do not have a quarterback and conservatively have 2 pieces of an offensive line. For where the team is and what the modern NFL is like, nothing else really matters unfortunately. - It does not matter what the Panthers gave up for Sam Darnold or what they're paying him. He is the definition of a sunk cost, and there's no point dwelling on it. What's done is done. He cannot go into another season as a starter. He is toast. - The Panthers do not have a lot of draft picks. They have one coveted first rounder that they need to either A.) land an O Line starter with or B.) use to trade for more picks. Drafting a QB does not help them this year (unless they manage to draft Herbert) and sticks the presumptive next coaching staff a player they might want nothing to do with. Why Mitch - He does not cost any draft picks. They can just sign him. This lets them address the offensive line. - Money doesn't matter. I know this is a controversial statement, but they can manage to overpay him because as long as David Tepper can drop those signing bonuses up front anything is possible. - Local kid. Played at UNC. Fan base would eat it up. Tepper would love the local angle. Buys goodwill. - Was in a rough situation in Chicago. Final season stats there were not that bad, far better than anything Darnold had done. Has spent a year in Buffalo under a coaching staff that turned a similar big armed idiot into an MVP candidate. - Loves to kiss titties. If it works - All is well. You have a big armed local kid playing in what should be a weak division that squeaks the panthers into the playoffs, probably loses in the first round, lets the panthers restock the draft pick cabinet, gets darnold off the books, can renegotiate his contract, everyone looks like a genius. If it doesn't work - As long as you structured his contract so he's easy to cut after two years, who cares. Fire everyone, hopefully you solidified the o line, bring in a new staff, move on from there.
  15. have you guys watched anything of penning? he’s a fuging monster who ends every play by throwing defenders to the ground because he can.
  16. its possible to play well as an individual and the team as a whole to not do well it happens all the time
  17. He played very well in week 18. Reddick is gone. Him and Burns are the same player. Reddick is not a guy you build a team around. Let someone else make the mistake of locking him up long term.
  18. I will hold off on forming an opinion until after the draft/FA period once I'm sure we're not going to trade poo loads of picks, or make desperation trades for like Jimmy G, then I'll be fine with the decision. I'm absolutely okay with tanking for a year, and if that's tepper's plan its fine to keep rhule. But if we draft like Cody Pickett instead of oline then oof. Whoof.
  19. I think the thing I hate the most is people that use the term “capital” to refer to draft picks, ignorant of both the historical implications of that term and how ludicrous and meaningless it is when used in that context.
