Seems like the fans, public, and even league don't care. Feels like Im dreaming....

How was he able to do 10 pump fakes and hold the ball in all those sacks?? He did have one fumble in that first drive and it hurt.....but I gave the defender credit for the a version of the peanut punch while Dalton had no clue he was closing behind him.

It took a prayer ball to XL from Dalton for the seal. It was awful windy and honestly don't know if BY had a 1st down pass in that final drive. He surprised the hell of me in many 4th quarters, I will say that....he has 8 wins that came for game-winning drives...I think he's only got 9-10 total wins. That's part of this crazy panther ride, such a strange team and the out-comes this year.

I got BYs on this 1:4 ratio. Good:bad. *there has been more good in most of the recent games.....just use his last 9 games from last year as a starting point. Outside of one or two games, his whole rookie campaign was 98% bad...... You can even break it down more, quarter-wise he has lots of 3 bad and 1 good games.

Id trade about dang near anyone, Panthers have ZERO untouchable players. If some bad team wanted to offer three 1st, others mids, and decent player or two for the main man dbrown....... Dbrown you can always come back home when you're ready, enjoy yourself.

FYI Dowdle was a HS QB and I believe he's the emergency QB. I don't know why its sooo hard to have a few plays where both Rico and Chubba on the same play. Both have good hands and both can pass block/blitz pickup. I always complained about this during jstew and dwill era, use both!!! Hell fake a HB drive to Chubba and setup a screen pass to Rico, BANG 12 yards....Its not like its against the rules to play 2 RBs at the same time.

Tossing in another ______ in this piece. Most QBs picked in the first are going to terrible teams(Especially the top ten). QBs picked in the later rounds get their odds of success increased by landing on iggles or chiefs. Hence why I placed Joe Burrow sooo high on my list. Maybe the best DC in NFL history agrees- https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/nfl/bengals/2025/07/09/steve-spagnuolo-joe-burrow-is-second-best-nfl-quarterback-to-patrick-mahomes-chiefs-bengals/84514443007/ Wins, putting up numbers while limiting your TOs on a bad team, that's the impossible feat. Maybe try to fit Joes early years into this formula, if the formula is sound, Joe should be in the top 5% if not the top.

being born with a old soul doesn't work well in this era, I was interwebz old before interwedz started.

Im the forums worst speller by far. I confused Google enough with my first try of spelling that word, it spit out that and that was good enough for my neanderthal brain...

Im not ready to admit I was wrong, but he's 10x better than I thought at this early stage. He's red hot form 3 and FG in general. ALL the rookies minus McNeeley have been GREAT. I thought Sion James would be a non-factor and send down very soon at start, he's already worth NBA mins. The big man is Kalkbrenner is surprise starter and he looks like he can handle 25 mins each game. The feel is different for this class. Kon included

They are super precocious about injury these days, it honestly doesn't hurt to wear the boot and it may prevent further injuring certain foot/ankle/toe injuries. I do think he didn't have the high ankle like reported, this may have not had any swelling either. But for it heal and be practicing in wet environment ......like what is happening?!?!?

The player needs to younger than 25 with some sort of multi-year contract length. I remember Rod Gardner trade and think how smart and how great of move that would result for the Panthers........I think he caught 3 balls and was a total non-factor.... Just given history, Im not giving any hope for gaining help via trade deadline......Im much more of fan that sells.....but we are talking the Panthers roster here....

I guess this is a good of time as any. Out of alllllll the HC pressers I loathe Daves the most..... I can not pin point why, but I can not stand his talking..... Winning doesn't help this either, just a bad vibe I guess....

I swear using any picks other than 6th or 7th, better not happen with this 2025 team..... These mid-season trades have a fail rate of like 90%, its too much for a player to adapt.
