Also not practice related but still Panthers related: It's the love of XL's grandmother for me

Semi-related but not practice-related, I highly recommend giving Cooley's interview with The Athletic a listen. Great insight into the approach that these coaches are taking with the players.

Sounds like Defensive Pass Game Coordinator Jonathan Cooley is up

Unable to find the streams for the press conference. Going to grab relevant tweets instead.

Catching up on the pressers for summaries Early notes Diontae Johnson out with an illness Canales hopes all of the starters will play some vs. Buffalo, including Bryce and Diontae Starters expected to play for more than one series

That's the part that's crazy to me. People are making clearly definitive statements and then dogging out other posters for not having the same perspective only to turn around and cry victim when they're told to keep pounding sand. Being critical is more than okay. I was incredibly hard on Chuba his first season because of all of the drops that he had and gave immediate praise during his second season when he showed improvement. At no time did I make the declaration that he'd never be able to play RB in the NFL because that just isn't something that can be known from that rookie season. I was even more critical of YGM up until last season when his effort and motor paid off some because he was on the field more often to use it to his advantage (Yetur made his impact by wearing down opposing OL and still having his foot on the gas late in the game). I didn't think that he needed to be resigned this offseason but didn't spend every day of the offseason jumping into threads and rolling my eyes at folks that thought he should stay. Clearly, the issue isn't being critical of a player. It's the derailing of threads and condescending attitude of a select few posters that have been an issue to the point of where a compliment sandwich thread was created to make it less insufferable. I miss when fans had this attitude tbh:

Seconding on uBlock origin. Might be able to download a pre-made blocklist that can help there. That's what I ended up doing to get around a lot of the paywalls that news sites use. Going through that gave me the outline for how to add my own blocks for local + regional sites.

Such bad luck for Tommy. Finally gets a chance to be ahead of Ian Thomas on the depth chart and can't get his hamstring right after the Panthers took a highly touted TE prospect in the draft.

Not at Panthers practice but somewhat Panthers related...
