  1. Abby did the typical poo. Slept with a bunch of players. Hey, more power to her. You go girl. Dragging her for it is silly, even if cheating on your fiancee while planning the wedding is scummy as hell. She's the same as half the women out there but has the spotlight due to her job. Unprofessional sure, probably can't be trusted in a similar role elsewhere because this is what she's into doing. Not my business, still miss her and will continue to. Now, Cole...oh boy. What a piece of poo.
  2. Only bright side is hockey is back soon.
  3. 3rd and 1, on your own 39, 1 timeout and enough time on the clock to get into field goal range. You run the ball and don't convert. You score to open the 2nd half. You're down 17-9....you decide to go for 2. Matt Rhule has got to be daring Tepper to fire him. I've never seen so many inept decisions occur in consecutive games in my life.
  4. Yep. RealBitsOfPanther too. He was the other author on The Canes Blog, back when we still had blogs. Great times.
  5. Ok admittedly Skinner was the fuging business until we found out he was made of glass and his work ethic started dipping lol. I get Staal's usefulness. But he's also on like, what, year 16? Over 1k games for sure. He's in the back end, all I'm saying. If he stays on cheap and accepts that even if he's 2 lining, he's in a bottom 6 role to win faceoffs and pk and get a bunch of minutes late to secure wins, sure. I just don't want to be tied to him with no future move and nobody who is ready to wear the C. That's all.
  6. I do. Was one of three people 6 years ago keeping this place active. Staal is still very good but with our youth, money, and chance to compete, the sooner he hangs it up the better IMO.
  7. Make this Staal's last season. Have him groom his replacement as captain and try to make that one last run for the Cup. If he chooses to remain with the team, he can do so as an assistant or you create a mentor position for him or something within the organization. Love the guy but I get the feeling this season is it for him.
  8. They've fined players for it, it can be called in a game. Same as throwing a strike to any other part of the body.
  9. True though. Kind of a goofy answer but it's not wrong. Just wish he'd...you know...address it in practice in a way that it reflects in games.
  10. Ok that's dumb. Easy way to get personal fouls too. The issue is scheme and Baker. That's all. Can we be more aggressive in pass pro to keep the DL more engaged and therefore limiting the hands up? Sure. But we're going for all these quick hitters, DL can time that. Baker is short, easier to bat. So what does Baker try? Extend his throwing motion high to avoid batted balls. What does that cause? Him to sail balls we've seen him hit previously. Baker is getting into his own head and until we start taking more deep shots than 3 times a game, it's going to be a problem.
  11. I'm taking mine to a Knight's game for his first sports experience next summer and he'll be 3 then. He MIGHT see a Panthers game in person before kindergarten but probably not. Last time I took somebody with me that wasn't a buddy it was my wife for the Seahawks playoff game....and a drunk asshole spilled his beer on my wife and that almost ended badly (tbf, his friends were less drunk, apologized, one walked him out and then ran back up with a beer for both of us a short while later so that was dope).
  12. The back shoulder throw that Robby made no effort on shows either lack of chemistry, lack of awareness on his part, or a bad ball. Since I don't think it was a bad ball, I'm leaning more on it being Robby only knows go over the top. That same throw to DJ is likely a catch because he feels that out and has in the past. He offers little else and he's too tiny to be trusted over the middle. DJ and Shenault are a scary combination outside and Smith can probably pop one underneath at some point. Give Robby to a team desperate for a speedy guy.
  13. Isn't Baker's completion percentage like 55%? Doing math here, but that tells me he's actually playing ok all things considered. He's facing stupid rush and we run the ball with our highly paid RB like 10 times a game.
  14. McAdoo and our players can easily. I've seen high school teams install two formations with a few plays in each in 3 days time. Surely pros can get a new formation with some new plays installed in a weeks time. question is if Rhule deems it necessary or if "we don't need to change anything".
  15. My 2 year old is great. He'll fuging throw away trash no problem, but then he'll occasionally decide his Oreos need to get crumbled and yeeted. I found goldfish in my Braves hat last night. It. Doesn't. Stop.
  16. Literally same. Shall we join our houses and strengthen the realm?
  17. Should be middle of this week. Prospect Showcase ends tomorrow. From what I heard, camp starts days later.
  18. Oh, Abby. I'm gonna miss her...but holy poo how silly can a person be? Lol
  19. Baker is easily the best QB we've had since prime Cam and to say otherwise is just a lie or being clouded by frustration. Icky is a rookie, he's gonna keep improving. Moton and Elflein, however.... Scheme wise, idk what you guys are seeing but I'm seeing a LOT more open receivers than I've seen since Cam's MVP year. The scheme works. Play calling leaves a lot to be desired. We bail on the run too early. Rhule saying a few weeks ago that this is a passing league worried me and my worries are coming true. We're trying to "fit in" with the heavy passing game and it's not this teams identity. We're a rush, hit the short throws that can break loose, take a shot to keep the safeties back team. CMC was averaging nearly 7 per carry. He had 15 carries. Unacceptable.
  20. Yeah the cooling is a concern. On low EVERYTHING on Apex I'm still hitting 80-85 C in game (high 90s in the lobby because reasons? I have fps capped in steam at 144). This is the story in every game. My buddy has a 5700xt as well but he doesn't break 80 often at all. Isn't 3060ti primarily a 1080 card though?
  21. Well we don't really have a FB. We have talent at TE/needed the chip on Garrett. We have the depth at wr to keep fresh legs running 3 wide consistently. We have DJ and CMC who can line up anywhere. We varied the formations a bunch. People get too hung up on personnel. It's not that big a deal. Only a problem when you fail to execute plays.
  22. This is literally the only response to any criticism of Baker at this point. This and defensive players saying post game how calm and reassuring Baker was all game, even when he was struggling himself and how much they respected him for that.
  23. Robby is entirely dependent on getting over the top. He's a less dynamic version of Ted Ginn. He's a go down on first contact guy. He's 4 for 30 minus the busted coverage. Still decent but not anything crazy. If Robby can deliver one of those deep balls a game then good. Otherwise, ship him IMO
  24. Our offense has serious potential if we stay out of our own way and if Baker can overcome the OL holes with quick decisions like he made at times today. Kicker was solid. Punter was solid. Made adjustments at half. Didn't give up but one really big play. So that's good
