  1. I'm all for this. Needs to happen for spotting the ball altogether. No more favorable spot shenanigans for teams that are favorites of the league.
  2. If Tom Brady ends up being an awful commentator it will be such sweet sweet schadenfreude. Congrats to Greg Olsen!
  3. Well. I know camp is right around the corner because in the span of 48 hours I've seen Bryce Young compared to Christian McCaffrey and Steve Smith Sr. The mental gymnastics are...
  4. He's Patrick Mahomes.... 3 time Super Bowl champion. BTW he was still 9th in YPG. BY was all the way down the list at 35th. Our issue last season wasn't that we were running dink and dunk. There were simply throws that weren't on the table or attempted for whatever reason anyone wants to conclude. Half the field was off the table more often than not. Every defense we faced knew this. Pair that with constantly being in shotgun because our starting QB wasn't comfortable working under center and you get the league's worst offense. Our head coach has a lot on his plate to say the least.
  5. Oh I wouldn't want to derail this fine thread with talk of culinary exploits.. But if you must know I am a man who has thoroughly enjoyed my fried chicken over the years. Now I keep it simple with high quality boneless skinless chicken breast seasoned to perfection with some legit Carolina BBQ sauce.
  6. Who threw that pass? I thought Cam was retired.
  7. I'm actually going on yet another relaxing walk enjoying this wonderful weather. After that going to cook up some delicious chicken. Ya know normal Tuesday stuff. I appreciate your concern.
  8. All this anger over the 46th ranked passer of the 2023 NFL season.
  9. No doubt his tendencies are all known to opposing defenses. That's the biggest hurdle Canales has in all this beyond obviously getting him to a level of being an average or above average passer. All this talk of addressing the footwork and basic fundamentals is great for the annual offseason fluff machine but it's going to get put to the test as early as preseason. That's the first passing grade we need to see from Bryce. Not moving the ball and getting in the end zone in preseason is not an option.
  10. Each QB in our division is without a doubt beatable. We need to get competitive now before our rivals continue to retool and one of them eventually hits the jackpot on a franchise QB. Canales don't let us down.
  11. Progress is progress. Throw some beautiful long passes and throw some touchdowns in preseason and I'll be a happy man with something to look forward to on the football front.
  12. It's not that serious but you've now doubled and tripled down in your defense of your totally benign comment while calling others triggered. Very interesting. 98% of us want Bryce Young to be the guy rather than start over yet again. But we also don't need to sit around feeling sorry for him considering he has a guaranteed rookie contract a lot of bottom of the roster players would be lucky to see over the entirety of a career. Just a heads up. You can talk Bryce Young without gargling his nuts or calling him trash. There's this whole world of middle ground out there.
  13. No doubt that's a big part of it. But Gurley was one of the more talented running backs of the last decade. Crazy to think he's only 29 and hasn't played in about 4 years. That's a valuable resource not just for his history with a similar injury but learning about how to stretch more longevity out of what is usually a shorter career for the position that has become devalued recently.
  14. In an effort to redirect the thread back to the OP. I just watched a clip from the Panthers social and Jonathan Stewart was talking to Brooks and Sanders. Brooks specifically mentioned he has been in contact with Todd Gurley for advice on the position. That's good to hear. If for nothing we have two early offensive picks who seem keen to not only compete but are humble enough to reach out to avaliable sources of information to better themselves. It's still very early and maybe it will pay off and maybe it won't but this is a nice change of pace from the seemingly lackadaisical mentality of offensive picks such as Terrace Marshall Jr.
  15. So it's okay to have a pity party for the worst starting QB in the league last year but if I attempt to bring any perspective to your take I'm the one that needs to lighten up And for comparison sake. Another young quarterback who was also sacked about 65 times ended up being traded after enduring such a miserable season and he's making not much above league minimum per season. It could always be worse. Wise words to live by.
  16. Do we know he wants to sell them? Are we really going to vilify a working class PSL holder to justify a billionaire who highly values his concert money raising ticket prices?
  17. Where there's a will there's a way. And maybe even a pot of gold waiting at the end. He's doing just fine. Let's put away the violin.
  18. https://www.carolinahuddle.com/topic/227686-i-hope-you-know-what-this-means…/
  19. It's a start. Now if he can actually throw any semblance of a consistent deep ball.
  20. It's easy to find scapegoats. We thought Matt Rhule was the worst we could be as of recently. Turns out that was wrong. We're certainly going to get to see how much of last seasons debacle was on the staff. I can say I will absolutely be looking to see what areas remain an issue.
  21. One minute he's washed the next he's an invaluable presence
  22. All the side talk about BY aside I like the attention to small details. Though I find it hard to believe no one on staff and especially Josh McCown the QB coach tried to hone in on these things this time last year.
  23. This place was a cesspool at times even through the Cam years. Even when we won the goal posts moved over and over. And Cam had one of the best rookie seasons ever at the time. I respect you for holding it down as a fan. But just remember we're all at the end of the day on equal footing with this franchise. We've all suffered through the consistent inconsistency that has now given way to one of the worst teams in all of professional sports the last few years. That is the biggest reason you are seeing what you're seeing. If the combo of Canales and BY can bring wins and respectability back for the Carolinas you'll see the feedback you seek. For the moment I think the mods here are doing the best they can given the state of the franchise. Best of luck to ya this season
  24. Hey Seltzer. We've got 17 games worth of opposing fans ridiculing us and talking cold hard poo about Bryce Young coming up. You might want to develop some thicker skin if you're going to be rooting for this team because things said here by our own fans are fairly tame compared to what the rest of the league has in store for us after what we gave up in that trade last year. Maybe try and pace yourself bud.
