"On paper" we look improved and even serviceable. We have weapons and possibly a QB who can get the ball to them. But I caution any Panthers fan that has lived through many past offseasons to wait on popping any champagne bottles about the oline until we see consistency.

I could begin to somewhat understand the knob polishing of Rhule and co if our OL had been any semblance of good or a strength the last two years. But instead our staff saw fit to sign two of the worst free agent linemen on the first day of free agency and were heavily resistant to giving Christensen reps at left tackle until the end of the season. Hiring Campen was a step in the right direction but Rhule still runs the show and his comments about Slater only fanned the flames of the criticism.

More desperate? We had the worst OL in the league at one point. And the Giants curb stomped us.

It's just information. Take it or leave it.

3-9 divisional record and lost to every fired head coach last year. How's that for a measuring stick? He can shut everyone up this season though. Hopefully Baker is the answer.

Players liked Ron Rivera too. Last time we saw that guy his team was kicking our ass. Matt has as much to prove as anyone.

And some looney tunes here who think he still might turn the corner and poof look at that he's a franchise QB

Guys take it easy it's only Monday. No need to go all scorched Earth on each other. Save that for the trolls.

Miles can get fuged. He's done it before and going on IG the day after like it was all good shows pathological tendencies. Nobody is perfect in this world but most of us don't beat and nearly choke our significant other to death in front of our kid. He should never play in the NBA again.

This would depend greatly on whether or not you think this is the last time Watson will be in the news for doing stupid poo. To me the odds don't favor the Browns. Even with this news I still say they saved us from ourselves.

Opinions will vary about Corral but the aspect that should not be disputable is we shouldn't be wasting reps on a QB with no future here and possibly as a starter in the rest of the NFL. Corral should be splitting reps with Darnold from here on out at the very least.

Much has been said about the Watt hit which yeah it had an impact. But the accumulated hits from those highlight plays of him running the football are the most consequential reason why things got so bad so suddenly. It has to serve as a very tough lesson for the franchise. When you get a star QB you protect him even if it means saving him from himself sometimes too.

The strange notion here of Sam Darnold winning the quarterback competition centers around one thing. The passage of time. It's been almost a year since people have had to watch Sam Darnold play quarterback in the regular season. Sounds to me like they need to go back and watch some "highlights" and refresh their memory.

Nothing wrong with viewing things with Panthers tinted shades sometimes but this is maybe you should talk to a therapist levels of delusion. The Jets and their fans already accepted who he is. To look at that and not only say "yeah I'll take more" but go on to say "yeah he could be the guy of the future" is honestly insanity.

PJ Walker having the best day tells you just how much you can truly glean from training camp.

Let's hope we can get Horn back on the field soon

You'll probably be able to find some footage later after the real camp MVP's the fans upload their videos. But it will be grainy or from across two fields thanks to team access rules.

If I'm not mistaken TMJ was the camp champ more often than not early on last year. Then he couldn't even get a game jersey even after we had nothing to play for. Just have to take all this in camp for what it is with a big grain of salt. If we see progress in preseason against some starters then we can start feeling good.

The trade got some bad reception because we traded for the worst QB in the league before that and proceeded to stack corners while simultaneously we were fielding a bottom ranked oline and our run defense was obliterated by midseason. He deserved the benefit of the doubt and people knocking him for dealing with depression were dummies but let's not forget the full picture of that situation. Fans had a right to be skeptical. Still have to see it in the regular season. We hope.

If Teddy Bridgewater with a better arm is the ceiling then personally I would rather see something else. If you can't trust your QB with the ball in his hands then you don't actually have a QB. The flip side is Baker is prone to blunders too. But it should be Mayfield or Corral.

Be sure to get yourself a Sam Darnold signature!

Yeah not surprised that's a tough test for any rookie QB. They've had enough success though if he's a bust that's just the universe evening things out. Side note notice how close to the action the person is filming this. Must be nice.

Much respect to the fans putting up these videos. It's a shame we have to rely on randoms practically sitting in a tree from two fields away. But these guys are the real MVP's of camp.
