Is it just me or is Joe Judge an adult version of Pugsley Adams

Daaaang STO3 with the stop but rolled him in Oh poo, that shin might be down!! ... WTF THESE OFFICIALS ARE TRASH

Is the hard counter to this defense the Georgia Tech triple option? Jfc

I guffawed

Joe Brady needs to be Doomsday Device'd until he learns to do what he said he'd do when he said he would scheme based on personnel

Maaaaan I'm surprised that Chandler didn't concuss DJ there

Ew, Peppers came down right on that ball. That poo huuuuurts. I remember several years ago a college player got tackled on to the ball like that and the force of the impact perforated his colon and resulted in emergency surgery

The fact that the entire offense looks unprepared and inept makes me wonder how much Joe Brady is feeling the heat. It'd be one thing if it was one player or position group, but this is a collective failure across the board. WRs aren't catching the ball or running the correct routes, the QB is making bad decisions and hesitating (a deadly duo), the OL is a mess, and TEs are under utilized. The RBs are doing what they can.

Keep Pounding!!!

Little victory: When Brady Christensen got beat, he at least tried to cover Darnold up from Ojulari pancaking him

Aight, had halftime to bitch. Time to get back to cheering!

I will take Sam any day over Jimmy Sam can actually throw the ball. Jimmy looked like he was struggling to make the high school track team in the javelin.

I was the first person to vote in my own poll and I chose the gun. Unwad your panties lmao

In order of preference for me...

Joe Brady seems to be hitting a serious wall as a play caller. It will be interesting to see if he's able to progress passed it. There's clearly solid play design, but he looks to be falling into the same trap as Mike Shula and other OCs by depending on the scheme itself rather than the players within the scheme.

So Huddle... what's the final answer?

Man... good thing Sam can throw it deep?

That defense is SALTY!!!!

GREAT run stop on 2nd and coverage on 3rd!!!! LET'S GO DEFENSE!!!!

Him being Brady Christensen ofc

Creed Humphrey was my draft crush this most recent draft, so if there's anybody that was disappointed that we didn't draft him it's me. Despite that, TMJ has been pretty damn solid when compared to other 2nd rd WRs the Panthers have picked up. Plus, the staff during the behind the scenes footage was clearly targeting an OT, that's why they traded up to select him ~10 picks later. If TMJ was actually underperforming, I'd understand the handwringing more. The Trey Smith groaning imo is just folks dedicating themselves to being miserable as 31 other teams passed on him as well. If anything, TMJ is a Bradberry pick as we took multiple CBs that year and we took multiple WRs this most recent.

Wait wait wait Folks are down on TMJ? Are they just not watching the games... or did he wedgie them in elementary school?

I mean... he did here as well: Panthers QB Teddy Bridgewater shoulders blame for loss I genuinely do not understand the constant hate that people direct at Teddy. Everywhere but in Carolina he is regarded as a team-first guy that's well liked. Ask Panthers' fans though and they'll tell you that Teddy slapped their momma in a dream that they had once.

We're competing with what we have this season and next. After that, we're built to blow up the roster with the exception of whomever staff believes that their core are. I was a little irked at first, because on the surface we have just the following draft picks for 2022: 1st, 4th, 5th, 5th, 6th, 6th, 7th. When I remind myself that the missing 3rd went to picking up CJ Henderson I feel a bit better (though a bit worse with the way Sam is currently playing since that 2nd was to pick him up). Tyler Linderbaum in the first, and then we've got 6 day 3 picks to take shots on depth and development with. That... kind of lines up with last season where we had 7 day 3 picks in this most recent draft (4th: Chuba Hubbard, 5th: Daviyon Nixon, Keith Taylor, 6th: Deonte Brown, Shi Smith, Thomas Fletcher, 7th: Phil Hoskins). That also means that the pick for the round where Rhule has landed Chinn, TMJr, and YGM was used on Sam... Oof. Hopefully dude turns it around and is at least a serviceable game manager with the ability to make plays with his arm downfield as well as his legs to provide a dual threat to make it worthwhile.
