They want to see if Ricci can play FB - he's on the bubble.

I'd be amazed if they're done at K.

Hartsfield is making the roster too - he's in with the firsts.

Elflein at C for a start. Paradis has given up two sacks and a TFL (the LB blew by him on a Hubbard rush).

I'm thinking they've got two weeks to work it out and I'd be disappointed if we don't see a different combination run out there on the next drive. Paradis has given up two sacks already.

I honestly thought we brought in Elflein to compete with him at C. He's a bad player.

I'm worried about the offence in the sense that we're clearly going to have to be a pass first team. It's early days though and our star player is on the sidelines.

That was not a good kick.

Ricci is going to make this roster.

Surely you kick the FG there!? You're trying out a kicker ffs.

Gotta say, Smith is wrong. Our QB coach has got Darnold moving his feet. He's not 'unsettled'.

It's why I chuckle at the "Oh you can't take a CB with #8 overall" crowd. It's a passing league. You drop bags for CBs and DLs on defence. Collapse that pocket and make plays on the ball in the air. Rhule gets it.

And that attitude is pervasive. "Oh it's just another meaningless regular season game, I'll sell my tickets to visiting Cowboys / Washington / Packers fans".

25 years and this poo still happens. We don't deserve a franchise tbh.

Can we have Herndon and Becton, please?

The best that we've ever had? Quite possibly - it's a very low bar. That said, it's clearly still Rhule's show. Fitterer is having fun doing all the admin though.

Unless Jansen doesn't like money I can't understand why he'd want to retire. You can't touch the LS now and he has one job. I think it was more the Panthers exploring options to get younger and cheaper.

Part of me hopes he doesn't play - just so the mopes have another two weeks of something to mope about.

Seifert brought us Morgan, Jenkins and Smith. C'mon now.

You need to quality this question. People are picking multi-year vets as their answer. The worst Panther player of all time is actually someone who was probably on the roster for a day one Training Camp.

Why do people ALWAYS jump to race? This world is fuged. Identity politics are the worst.

I mean the LSU team was loaded, but he got that offence singing. Just look at their numbers pre and post Brady.

If you don't think he was the OC during LSU's National Championship winning season I've got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

Newton .5 is Justin Fields - it's the only reason I can point to as to why so many on here are in love with him. He kinda reminds them of a watered down version of Newton.

I genuinely don't see Fox or Rivera rebuilding two college programmes - one that was burnt down to the foundations. They're not that guy. They can take a poor team and make it mediocre (with the odd good season sprinkled in there). They're not programme builders - Rhule is. In both cases in college he was poached by a bigger organisation before he could truly reap the benefits of what he was sowing.
