Two sentences in, I think this is the informative version @TheSpecialJuan providing a reasoned and knowledgeable take and then the regular edition of @TheSpecialJuan shows up for the finale.

You have no sense of style if you can't appreciate that glorious 70's porn 'stache.

Red zone production is going to be a big thing to watch this season. If we struggle there again with a different(even though he may actually be worse) QB AND a healthy CMC.......Brady is gonna start getting questioned by everyone.

Mods, we gotta do what's right here. Anyone trashing the 'stache should be banished permanently.

May consider a lifetime contract based on that picture alone.

Slye will probably wilt again in a head to head competition this week.....then we will cut the new kicker.

Well since we already cut our best kicker from yesterday....

The dinking and dunking aren't fine if there are better options available downfield.

No, I was agreeing with the likely reason why people started to invent that narrative but correcting you that there were MANY posts critical of Gano and his supposed lack of leg strength.

It's certainly possible if the percentage of his QB hurries that become sacks jumps up. If you look at those advanced stats, he's right on the door step of video game numbers.

It's a fine line. For instance, Teddy always took the safest and quickest option instead of gambling. He was cautious to a fault and hampered the offense as a result. Darnold, by his nature, is a gunslinger. Hence why we saw so many awful and ill advised INT's in his career. He leans towards trying to make the big play like most gunslingers do. We just need to get him somewhere in the middle of that scale. "Taking what the defense gives you" while also having the nuts to make throws to score and try to make plays when they are needed.

Literally just search this message board and you will see hundreds of posts saying he couldn't hit poo beyond 50+(or shorter). Probably because Rivera eventually seemed reluctant to use him in that capacity. I think that was just a Ron Rivera thing.

Yeah, it would be different if they were out there crushing it in the preseason and there was some dramatic difference we were seeing. That hasn't been the case. When you have sucked for years, the onus is on you to prove you don't suck, not for everyone else to assume that you figured it out. Sort of like Greg Little. After just one season it was pretty obvious was the situation was but we still had people holding out hope all that "potential" was going to be realized. Gotta show up and prove that poo.

If Phil Snow at his age won that competition.....WOW.

I don't think any WR in the NFL is likely to command two 1st round picks. WR is a critical position but not many teams are going to trade more than a 1st. I can't actually recall a trade in recent memory where a WR was traded for a first round pick.

That guy is not a Panthers fan. He is a Jets fan that came over with Darnold. He literally has only known anything about this team starting in around April of this year. Talking team history is not going to work.

That's not actually a real thing. Hopkins didn't even technically get a 1st round pick in his trade nor did Antonio Brown when he was initially shipped to the Raiders. I said a 1st and a third but I am not sure that would even get something we could get.

Agreed. Much ado about nothing. And his mush mouthed explanation of his source describing a nonsensical exchange between a player and Rhule was nothing. Similarly from the poster's description of him being a "dictator" isn't this literally how about half the coaches in the NFL are described? That isn't an isolated thing.

Jesus fuging Christ....2 hours and 17 minutes??? Can we get a fuging Cliffs Notes or at least a timestamp for that blurb??

I think you mean another long snapper.

Well, oddly we would either have a really good season or a really bad season to get that result.

I predict hindsight will not be kind to the Elflein and Erving signings. If that does come to pass, the portion of us that were unhappy at the time of the signings are going to be REALLY fuging unhappy about those decisions. But, if they flop and Darnold and the defensive players pan out, it will just be a minor bitching point.

You mean from TC or the games?

Picks is the answer for this hypothetical. I don't think we could effectively trade him for players in positions we need the most. Any cheap talent that we can build through the draft would be a huge boost. Something like a 1st and 3rd would be ideal for his current value. If he blows up this year, it will be interesting.
