Short story is while he legitimately possessed the ability to be a high level valued contributor here he basically lost his marbles over Bryce Young actually being held to the standard of a #1 pick. In the past he had done the same thing over Teddy Bridgewater. And eventually he increasingly devolved into a volatile personality and attacked people regularly and called them names for their opinions and constantly derailed threads and weaponized the poo reaction onto anyone and everyone including mods all the while complaining daily about the presence of so called trolls here. So eventually he got banned. Probably for the best because he was unwell.

Simultaneously repping the Panthers winning awards and besting the reviled Tom Brady. Give Greg the key to the city.

I'm sure it's just a coincidence I get multiple spam poo reactions from an account from 2011 with 1 post in the last 11+ years and that particular post was a compliment to Icege. Good riddance to these burner accounts.

It's honestly comical when you get down to it. The Panthers the last 3 consecutive years have gone out of their way to control a tight grip on any and all information and the overall narrative out of camp. Then preseason comes along and we either rest starters or give them limited reps and look sloppy or somewhat competent at best. Fast forward to the regular season and each of the last three years we have looked abysmal to open the season. The only way to root for this team is with an abundance of caution.

I completely understand. In relation to camp performances I am very cautious regardless of who the player is if they are reportedly wowing at training camp. I distinctly remember Terrace Marshall Jr was a camp MVP at times. It's best to operate with a healthy sense of skepticism regardless. This is the Panthers after all.

I am holding out hope for a miraculous run this season. But you know the narrative around him is peak delusional when the Panthers social team can post this without even a hint of irony. Four years and almost 50 games into his career he still looks like he's never set foot in the weight room. Really?

I guess this is a thing where people begin to forget the more time passes but my recollection of the huddle over the last 20 years is this is how it has always been. And if you attempt to wade into the murky waters of X or Facebook it's the same thing. The difference is people are bothered or unbothered by it based almost entirely on whether the context of the conversation is perceivedly positive or negative and reaffirms whatever biases they hold.

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/articles/dynamic-offensive-weapon-already-turning-185615715.html Monster run game is about the only path to the playoffs for this years Panthers. So hopefully Brooks is set for a big season. It would certainly soften the image of the horror story that has been the 2024 draft class.

You do realize that throwing yourself into the middle of a busy street and whailing at the top of your lungs over people saying things that hurt your feelings doesn't make you a superior human being right? Seems like an extremely cringy waste of time and energy bud.

Pickett has a higher career YPA. I mean...

Holding one other accountable sounds good I like to hear it. I expect to hear it on the other end too if our centerpiece struggles to accumulate 100 passing yards across entire games again.

Cavs swept in the conference finals. Kenny Atkinson taking major heat from the sports media.

Not exactly going out on a limb but he is absolutely correct. We've made some huge gambles on the defensive side of the ball with the size of some contracts let's just hope they pay off.

Meh. If it goes it goes. People still need thicker skin overall. We used to have an entire subforum called Smack Central that was no hards barred and resulted in some all time great content. We used to have rival fans post here regularly and engage in back and forth ribbing which if happened today would trigger tf out of a number of people here today who complain nonstop about current conversations here. In general this place is heavily sanitized compared to the huddle from 10 or 15 years ago. Change is inevitable but this is one of very few remaining original team message boards. Just enjoy it while it lasts.
