Mr. Scot

If you're trying to address @RoaringRiot, he only logs on sporadically. You might have better luck on one of their websites or social media.

However short you think it is, I can guarantee it takes longer than two preseason games.

Build for year one success and one year is likely all you get. Better to do it right.

This year we have people saying Bryce doesn't.

What Fitterer described was the roster building process. The process of implementing a system is separate...and generally takes time. And while the Giants one year turnaround looks great so far, what happens this year? Are they consistent or do they fall back to earth? Nothing is guaranteed.

Pretty sure that combination doesn't exist.

That one's not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer.

I hadn't seen that yet

Heh

You should see Lady Cowboy Fan watching a Dallas game.

Factory reset

Repeat offender?

As you wish

I try...

Yep

If you wanna make that kind of comparison, this is more like having a hangnail. (if that)

Oy

To paraphrase Matthew McConaughey, "I get older but the players stay the same age." I'm certainly hoping to see a Panthers Super Bowl victory, but we'll see. Just not gonna panic about preseason either way though...

And thank God for that

And that's just CPantherKing

I've overreacted loads of times in my life, but luckily through the years I learned a thing or two. Heck, just two seasons ago, we thought we were a lock for the playoffs after four games, but by December we saw the truth and most of us were calling for Matt Rhule's head. Further back in 2003, we were (likewise) riding high for the first four weeks before the Tennessee Titans cleaned our clock in week five. The narrative pretty much everywhere was that we'd been exposed as pretenders, but that year ended in some of the best memories we have. You never know...

Every second of it, including fifteen seasons of Marty Hurney and the past three years of Matt Rhule... This is a new team and regime, though. It's way too soon to know who and what they'll be, but I like their pedigree. Actual NFL experience is a huge step up from The Meatball.

I was in high school (and a 49er fan at the time) when The Catch happened. I think I jumped about as high as Clark did My first football memory is of The Immaculate Reception. I was five and my family had the game on at my grandma's house. Saw that play happen and was like "What is this?" Fifty years later, I've played, I've coached, I've studied...hell, my wife gets me books on coaching and scouting for Christmas. And in all of it, I've learned... ... patience. Said elsewhere: It's a marathon, not a sprint. The team you see today will likely beat little to no resemblance to the one you see in December. That's why rushing to judgment is a mistake.

Wait...Grant Young or Grant Gordon?
