Geno Smith has had one of the worse games in the history of this earth. Why are the tv announcers not acknowledging that

lol

The #Panthers plan to sign LB Maema Njongmeta off the #Bengals practice squad tomorrow, per league sources. @char_cliff had the move first. https://x.com/mike_e_kaye/status/1967760029693718814?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

That was a Super Bowl team caliber performance by the Buccaneers

Texans have drafted magnificently the past 3 years

I think Benjamin Zolak said it best: Put Bryce Young on a team with a great run game and great defense and he can be successful. Think of Brock Purdy.

This has been a wonderful game 2 top teams going at it This is what good football teams look like

This isn't Madden

Poor Corbett his body is literally falling apart

Cards CB were sitting on every throw offense is too predictable

This is worse than I thought I was gonna be

This changes everything. And by everything I mean nothing whatsoever.

Wonderful work.

BREAKING: The Carolina Panthers have fired Charlie Rock, of the team's communications department, for an insensitive post regarding the murder of Charlie Kirk, a source familiar with the organization's decision tells me. Story to come.

A source familiar with the team’s decision to move on from an employee confirmed that Charlie Rock, the team’s football communications coordinator, is no longer with the organization. https://x.com/dnewtonespn/status/1966148134440153196?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch The Huddle burn

Disappointing production in Week 1: Xavier Legette caught just three of his seven targets for 10 total receiving yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Legette's grades weren't any better: His 54.2 receiving grade in Week 1 marked the 17th straight game that he’s recorded a sub-67.0 receiving grade. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-xavier-legette-struggling-to-justify-carolina-panthers-first-round-investment

The Huddle: "Off with Bryce Young's head"!!!

Depressing

You would think, having the entire offseason to work on his footwork, it would have improved. I haven't given up on Bryce but damn, its not looking good at all.

This is exactly what happened on Sunday

I want to answer this with caution. Last year, in this very Week 1 column, I wrote about how rough Young looked in the season opener and how I did not see an NFL future for him. What sort of offense could work around a quarterback that fearful of pressure, that unwilling to throw over the middle, that lacking premier physical traits? Of course, Young was benched, then came back and had a decent finish to 2024. It wasn't anything revolutionary, but it was better than I thought an offense could be built around Young. My foot was firmly in my mouth. So you shouldn't be completely out for that reason. We have seen it work for Young at times -- the Week 18 game against Atlanta, along with Week 12 against the Chiefs. Dave Canales can do enough with Young that, in theory, a team with a great running game and great defense could get over the hump. But the Panthers do not have a great running game and certainly don't have a great defense. As we saw against the Jaguars, Young still harbors plenty of that erratic, undersized, overwhelmed passer we saw for much of 2023 and 2024. It's a thin needle to thread, building a team around a QB who has to throw with so much anticipation but also mostly outside of the numbers. The passing game becomes one-dimensional and predictable. Last year I said a flat "no" on Young. Hopefully I'm a year wiser now. So it's not a hard "no." But I remain very dubious.
