Absolutely. He hit big on that trade “So, the Panthers flipped their seventh-round pick in next year's draft into a fifth-rounder and turned a 2027 fifth-round pick into a fourth-rounder.”

Trade details re-visited: Panthers-Vikings Adam Thielen trade details Here's the full details of the trade: Panthers received: 2026 5th-round pick, 2027 4th-round pick Vikings received: conditional 2026 7th-round pick, 2027 5th-round pick So, the Panthers flipped their seventh-round pick in next year's draft into a fifth-rounder and turned a 2027 fifth-round pick into a fourth-rounder. All that for a guy who played 185 snaps over 11 games and caught just eight balls for the Vikings. Rare Panthers "W" right there. Carolina could do something absolutely hilarious and claim Thielen off waivers, which would really make this trade look even worse for Minnesota. Granted, the Panthers certainly don't need Thielen and he likely wouldn't have a role much bigger than the one he had with the Vikings, but having the extra depth would not hurt Carolina's playoff push one bit. https://www.sportingnews.com/ca/nfl/carolina-panthers/news/panthers-fleece-vikings-adam-thielen-trade-details-wrs-release/fd67e6af5aba99ea5433f9b0

Article from SI.com: The Carolina Panthers traded veteran Adam Thielen back to the Minnesota Vikings in the offseason. There was some early speculation about how that would go, as Carolina was trusting a very young wide receiver corps and moving on from their most reliable and productive offensive target. Quickly, it looked like, at the very least, the Panthers got something for nothing. Thielen had no impact on the Vikings, and while the passing offense could've used Thielen at times early on, the Panthers have adapted and honestly thrived without him. After Week 13, in which Bryce Young connected with Jalen Coker and Tetairoa McMillan for scores in a big win over the Los Angeles Rams, and the Vikings got nothing on offense again from Thielen (or anyone), they waived him. The statement indicates that Thielen requested this, saying he wants to spend what could be the final weeks of his NFL career contending and playing on a team that can win. It sure sounds like a reunion would make sense for both sides. The Panthers don't need Thielen, but he probably needs them. Other contenders, like the Buffalo Bills or New England Patriots, could use him more, but he runs the risk of failing to grasp everything in time for it to matter. While the Panthers have changed their offense from last year and from training camp to now, it's still much closer to what Thielen knew early on. Re-learning this offense would be much less of a challenge for Thielen in the five remaining weeks. Plus, with a bye week coming up, Thielen would have two weeks to prepare. He did really excellent work with Bryce Young, who he clearly has chemistry with. Why not run it back as the Panthers improbably contend for a division crown? Thielen was mostly a volume contributor in Carolina. There was no one else reliable, so he got most of the targets and most of the catches. But even in a reduced role, it is highly likely he'd do better as WR3/WR4 in Carolina than WR3 in Minnesota. Thielen and the Panthers proved to be a perfect match one time. They could be again, and it would be hilarious to get Thielen and the pick they acquired for him in one season.

I agree 100%. You fire Dalton, bring in a vet to start, and let Bryce be the backup for the last year of his deal. If Dave does not make us into a competitor by the end of year 3, send him and Morgan packing.

With so many examples of coaches coming in and changing the culture very quickly, I wonder what most of you think. I’m not sure we can confidently say Canalas has that ability, yet for the most part the majority of fans believe we will see a year 3 from Canalas. How long do you feel like coaches should get to prove that they have the ability to turn a team around? Look at this clip and tell me you don’t see a difference in cultures. Yes I know we are improving on wins, but do you feel like it is real changes that will lead to long term success, or fools gold for a middle of the road result coach? https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTrh7UpPw/

First game up today should be a very good one

Happy Thanksgiving to you suckas. I hope you all enjoy your day and the wonderful football we get to watch. For the Panthers, this year I am thankful for this big beautiful man. On a team full of disappointments he constantly sets the tone and gives 100 percent effort no matter what:

We never should have traded him it’s as simple as that. Same with DJ. Same with Burns. You don’t trade young, home grown, proven talent for a lottery ticket. People who bitched about cap and how much they were making need to pay attention to the product on the field since then. CMC alone would win us a coupon extra games that we had no business winning, not even mentioning the leadership and tone setting he brought to the team. He’s a 1k receiver and 1k runner and opens up everyone else on the field because cmc must be double teamed constantly, and any time he is not, he gets the ball.

Yes I did.

FYI: You’re absolutely right to be concerned — what you describe (vomiting after a head-impact in football) is a serious red flag that warrants immediate medical attention. Let’s break this down into two key parts: 1. What we know happened with Jaycee Horn Horn, cornerback for the Carolina Panthers, was evaluated for a concussion during the game vs the San Francisco 49ers after what was described as a head impact (or likely head/neck-whip event) and was seen vomiting on the sideline after his second interception. The team reported that during halftime he began to feel nauseous, and that prompted their training staff to rule him out for the remainder of the game. So yes — vomiting is confirmed in this case, and the concussion protocol has been triggered. 2. What vomiting after a concussion typically indicates Vomiting in the context of a head injury is not automatically a guarantee of catastrophic brain damage, but it does significantly raise concern and changes the urgency and level of monitoring required. Some key points: Vomiting (and nausea) are listed as possible symptoms of a concussion. Importantly: Vomiting right after a head impact, with no other cause (e.g., not from food poisoning, motion sickness alone) is considered a warning sign. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) lists “vomiting right after the injury without other cause” among the signs to watch for. In older literature, post‐traumatic vomiting has been associated with a statistically higher risk of skull fractures and more serious intracranial injury. For example one study showed that in patients fully alert at presentation, vomiting doubled the relative risk of skull fracture. Practically: vomiting suggests that the brain’s regulation of nausea/vomiting centres, or intracranial pressure, or vestibular/inner‐ear/balance systems might be affected by the trauma. However, having one episode of vomiting alone without other worsening signs doesn’t necessarily mean a catastrophic injury — but it raises the bar for “must perform full evaluation, imaging if needed, strict monitoring”. For example, one article notes: “While isolated vomiting is unlikely to predict a clinically important brain injury by itself, when combined with other symptoms it becomes much more concerning.” 3. What it means: in the sports / concussion‐protocol context Given the above, if a player vomits after a head impact: They must be removed from play right away (which appears to have happened with Horn). They should be evaluated by qualified medical personnel (team physician, athletic trainer) for concussion and also for possible more serious intracranial injury (e.g., bleeding, skull fracture) depending on mechanism. They should undergo concussion protocol: rest, no sport until cleared, graded return to activity (physical / cognitive) under medical supervision. Additional imaging (CT, MRI) might be considered if there are further alarming signs (worsening headache, repeated vomiting, seizures, unequal pupils, increasing confusion, focal neurologic deficits). The presence of vomiting may also predict a longer or more complicated recovery (so implementing conservative management is prudent). It heightens the need to watch for “second-impact syndrome” if return to play is rushed and another head trauma occurs before full recovery. 4. My summary answer to your specific question It’s not always a guarantee of the worst (e.g., massive bleed or catastrophic brain injury), but it is very serious and should be treated as though it could be a major concern. Vomiting increases the risk profile of the injury and demands more caution, stricter monitoring, and likely more conservative management. The fact that Horn vomited means his injury should be managed under the highest standards of sports‐concussion care and shouldn’t be down‐played.

He will get another year minimum. He signed a 6 year deal and from a win perspective he’s trending up even with horrific QB play all year (with the exception of 2 games)

Jesus. What in the Hell do we do with this guy. He’s everything all at once depending on the day/play. Of course you don’t extend him but this offseason we have to decide on the 5th year option.

This is sad and a direct reflection of our head coach. We all know rule 101 as a player is to not speak about issues with players or the team to the media. Multiple players are making comments, and it shows that Dave does not have the locker room. If what the players are saying is true (why wouldn’t it be?) Dave should be man enough to show the team that it won’t be tolerated. Maybe Dave is a little too comfortable with that 6 year contract that he signed and knows he’s good either way.
