  1. That was my first thought until I remembered Stone's last name
  2. Hubbard genuinely is pretty good, isn't he? The second effort he put in on that close red zone run last series really impressed me.
  3. Side Note: An ad campaign that features Sam Elliott and Rob Gronkowski is a wild idea
  4. I think I'd forgotten that Theilin, Johnson and Legette play for us
  5. When you have a quarterback who's more "vertical" than 5'9
  6. Dalton looks good, but the question is how long is he going to look good He's definitely not any sort of long-term answer, but he could be an effective stopgap.
  7. Lady Cowboy Fan and I adopted two more parrots and bought new cages for our entire flock. Let's just say I'm tired
  8. Okay so I'm apparently on the wrong channel. What I'm watching right now beers no resemblance to the Panthers offense I've seen in weeks past
  9. Irsay is lousy when he's sober, worse when he's drunk or high. Johnson succeeded at a time when there was no salary cap and benefited a lot from the stupidity of the Minnesota GM who agreed to the Herschel Walker deal. He went to Miami with pretty much full control and never got close to that level again. As to Reich not pushing back though, that part I agree with. Some guys just don't do that...even when they should.
  10. We bought new bird cages for our entire block, so I've spent the weekend up to this afternoon cleaning the bird room, putting together new cages and trying to get things arranged. I'm not sure I sat down much at all yesterday, so it's nice to be able to watch some football.
  11. That sentence was physically painful to read
  12. Likely... Three including us, if I remember correctly. I know there was a story that he was being offered the Cardinals job. We figured at the time that took him out of the running for us, but that fell apart or something. As to him not coaching now, he said at the time he took the Panthers job that this was his last go round and he was retiring once it was over. His children and grandchildren all live in this area so the plan was always to stop coaching and just be a family man. Granted, he likely didn't expect his tenure here to be so short but I doubt that changed his mind.
  13. Disagree, especially when you look back at his first two seasons. Now, the attempt to "fix" Carson Wentz was a mistake, and even Reich himself admits that. After that, you had the debacle of Matt Ryan which led to Jim Irsay interfering in football decisions and everything going downhill after that. Then, as others have discussed before, he escapes the shadow of Jim Irsay...and lands with David Tepper, basically the equivalent of getting away from Jeffrey Dahmer only to be captured by Ed Gein. There are definitely coaching decisions I disagree with (the skill set thing being the biggest) but I'd still say it's pretty hard to be settled either way on Reich given the circumstances.
  14. I was of the belief that he needed more time to recover from Rhule for a while, but learning two things changed my mind: The first, and most definitive, was finding out he had been one of the people talking behind Reich's back. That's just unacceptable. The other though was hearing that once he joined the Panthers, he went heavily into analytics based draft evaluations rather than traditional scouting. Word is that was a point of difference with Dan Morgan also. Morgan prefers eye tests to spreadsheets.
  15. I'll look for it (not in a position to right now) but someone else posted it here within the last week also.
