Not taking it that seriously at all. Just pointing it out. Regarding the past, it's not fear so much as a lack of significant data pointing otherwise. Rhule's been here for a year but Tepper for 3 and the first 2 Tepper years were not impressive. The team also won 3 in a row last year/4 the year before and it amounted to nothing, so the 4 games referenced here is the same sample size. Show some truly different results proving things are indeed changed.

Looks like it could've been more in front but I'm nitpicking. Looks like about 60 yards through the air on a pretty moderate line, not a huge rainbow. Promising.

Carolina won 3 in a row weeks 3-5 last year. Goes to show just how unremarkable those wins were.

Darnold not practicing today or did they decide that green/blue/whatever jerseys on QBs instead of red didn't matter after all?

"Benjamin said the experience with the Giants soured his feelings about the NFL. He doesn’t intend to pursue any more opportunities in the league." I don't think that's going to be an issue for him.

Agreed. I distinctly remember (because they were absurd) posts here back in 2013 saying that the season opener vs Seattle was "the biggest game in franchise history" and that losing that game would be a linchpin moment dooming the franchise for years to come... then the team lost 2 more of the next 3. We all know how that season turned out over the next 12 games.

Have to say that your first sentence is very ironic considering that you immediately turn around and patronize me in a similar manner. A sample size of one is worthless, especially since Tepper's first years were indeed more of the same. Lots of promise, yes, but a few more games prove nothing.

No. Going to take some continued success, as we've seen plenty of hot/cold over the past 20 years of Panthers football and the last 2.5 years have left a really bad taste.

Maybe there are actually strategic reasons, obscure or otherwise, for not being specific, such as potential trades/signings/post-cut additions. Maybe he enjoys playing games with these responses. Maybe he doesn't really care about being up front with the media. Maybe some mix of all of those things.

My middle son strangled with his cord and came out blue, unconscious, and not breathing - they had to do immediate baby chest compressions and a sternal rub to get him kick-started. The cyanosis took almost 24 hours to clear completely but now he's 8 and a perfectly normal giant PITA.

As the dad just relax and listen to what's being asked of you. Also, don't be afraid to ask your wife what you can do to help but if she says nothing, accept that answer as well and just be there to support. All will be well and the baby will arrive before you know it.

No chance they regret moving on from Teddy. They may regret something else, like not taking Fields as you mention, but taking the L on Teddy and making the change was absolutely the right and necessary thing to do, just like I assume they will move on from Sam if need be.

Unlike last year, it's somewhat refreshing to feel like there is actually potential for upside at the QB position even if the odds are slim. Agreed that overall expectations are low overall.

That's an interesting comment - was there any context? I'm not able to watch/listen at the moment.

I was in St Louis that day, just a mile or two away form the stadium at some mandatory activity. Killed me not to sneak off and buy a scalped ticket but I choose to believe that the football Gods smiled upon my sacrifice and blessed the Panthers. We were back at the hotel for the start of the 2nd overtime and I told the guy next to me, "Big play to Steve Smith, right here." X-Clown then happened and I got a few rounds of free drinks for being psychic.

Nothing more than any other loss. He may get a bit of grief from ex-teammates but I'm confident that life will go on for him.

Should be studying the playbook... geez. 0-17 incoming.

Possibly the least surprising thing I'll see today.

5 and 3 are 2 ages, and (5+3)*2=16. The proof becomes more decisive.

He led in depth of target per completion, not ypc.

Three seasons might be generous.

This was a short-lived thing years ago and is back again. I assume it will die out quickly again.

He'd fit right in with the other injury-history players Fitterer signed this off-season. High-risk, high-reward I suppose.

Would've loved to have had him here last year. Maybe it would have worked, maybe (probably?) it's a flaming train wreck, but it sure would have been entertaining watching him chuck bombs to that receiving corps.

Where has Reddick been lining up most frequently?
