  1. Denver was firmly in control of the game until that ill-fated choice to go for the 1st instead of taking the 3 points. It's been downhill since. I guess there could be some flukey end to this, but a bad way to lose in the championship game.
  2. I hate both teams, but if this holds, there is a bit of satisfaction in Sean Payton losing by his own faulty decision.
  3. It doesn't matter now, but they probably should've taken the easy opportunity for 3 back in the 2nd quarter when it was clear.
  4. I would be very surprised if Ickey plays at all next season.
  5. 3 sacks for Denver before halftime. That's like a quarter of the season for the Panthers.
  6. I thought the spot was questionable, but maybe it was more accurate than what was on tv since there was no challenge.
  7. Denver going up 14-0 would be a big lead in that venue with that defense.
  8. Cold with some snow possible in Denver. Will be in low 30s in Seattle this evening but clear.
  9. Very sound thinking. I am leaning more towards Denver. I think their home field advantage is just enough to tip the scale. I fully expect a clunky, somewhat unwatchable game disguised as a defensive battle. Bad Sam Darnold, come on down! It's time to make your appearance.
  10. Historically, good centers can be had in round 3 and later. It's not usually a position that a 1st or 2nd round pick has to be spent to draft an effective player. That said, we do usually reserve those 3rd and later picks to draft slow linebackers, incapable tight ends, and secondary with coverage concerns.
  11. Do they even know if the cranky old man is going to bless them with another season? He usually doesn't decide until after the summer solstice and he has had opportunity to dwell in darkness and contemplate things over some psychedelic substances.
  12. Well, McCarthy didn't win anything with the Cowboys, so he should fit right in with today's Steelers.
  13. You are making a huge assumption that this team will draft a center, and then subsequently hit on that center pick.
  14. Absolutely. If we are talking about a 20 year old youngster. He's a grown-ass man, and he doesn't know what his job entails or how to do it? Maybe he will be better next year! It's the Panther way.
  15. I don't necessarily argue any of that. I brought him up, as well as Peterson and Alexander as non-qbs that won MVP most recently. The only 1 I am certain without looking up is Alexander, but I am pretty sure LT won, and mostly sure Peterson did as well. Peterson's downfall and last few years give me a bit of pause, but I think he won the award.
  16. I think folks that think he would be an immense asset, particularly for Young, is how skilled he has been at making receptions at or near the LOS, and then turning those into gains. It does stand to reason that a qb that throws frequently in that area would benefit from a CMC-type of receiver.
  17. Well he's not going to win MVP. Maybe he wins 1 of the other awards, or maybe both, or none. I do think it says something that he is up for a reward that is almost exclusively reserved for qbs. The last non-qb was Tomlinson, maybe Peterson, or Alexander maybe?
  18. That's the Panther way. Maybe he will be better next year!
  19. 5 year deal? Well good for him. Expect 2 and half years or so of work, paid for 5. Not half bad.
  20. XL does nothing to improve 1 of Buffalo's real weaknesses. He does not improve their wr group 1 bit.
  21. I think there was a little bit of talk that his best years were over. The trade in and of itself doesn't matter. Whether it was justified, smart, dumb, is all just kind of talk now. He very much still has legs. We traded him for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th and. 5th, and there were plenty of voices that said we were fortunate to get that.
  22. What's done is done. I do not think we received fair market value compensation for him. Somewhat interesting, there is an NFL commercial that featured a morph of running backs through the ages that ended with CMC in a Panthers uniform. I noticed this season the commercial changed, and no longer features him at all, but rather ends with Curtis Martin in a Jets uniform.
  23. Surely, we got an unbelievable haul of picks for him, and then smartly turned those picks into superstars.
  24. Maybe one day, the Panthers will have a shot to lose 18 games in a season. Tepper will probably still be rolling Young out to start.
  25. The CBA allows for 20 games, which is why it was 4+16 games, and now 3+17, and soon it will be 2+18. That is not breaking news. It will not be happening next season though. It will be the next big negotiating point though, and most people expect players to ask for some big concessions for going along with an additional game. No longer drug testing for marijuana is my guess.
