Really man? Dead bodies hanging in trees, people's family & friends missing, folks starving, kids running around looking for their parents, towns deleted off the map, morgues overwhelmed, and you have to inject your politics into the discussion because you're so deranged from a President 4 years ago, that you can't help yourself? I'm not even a fan of the guy, but damn with the politics.

For sure, and Cherokee as well.

I have heard them all this week. *The hurricane was steered this direction on purpose *The land is going to be seized the land for quartz/lithium *It's an effort to keep Asheville turnout low during the election. *It's an effort to keep red county turnout around Asheville low this election. Fact is at least to me, it's a 100 year event. Everyone was very unprepared, the response was terrible, and Appalachia once again gets neglected and everyone is looking for somebody to blame. I have heard some absolute horror stories that I won't share out of respect. If they are true, this event is significantly worse than being portrayed.

Oh for sure. I'm not trying to be negative or a doomer but it's very different-at least from my perspective.

Might be an unpopular opinion but I was about 10 miles north of Lake Pontchartrain during Katrina helping family. I grew up in a town that was wiped out this past weekend and still live close enough that my family had to relocate to a hotel. There is a huge difference in the response.

I know it's mid-week, but what are your early thoughts with Chicago? Looks like the Bears are 3.5 point favorites. Not being biased, but I actually thought that should be reverse. Their offense is really struggling. Their defense is above average.

I like the idea of tracking this.

A lot of valuable experience for young guys this year is an upside. Trevin Wallace and Jaden Crumedy (when he returns) are going to get awesome development opportunities.

I've been off here until today. We live on the western side. Family was very lucky compared to others not far from us. Don't think people fully understand how bad it actually is out there. We came in east to get back into some civilization for a bit.

So I've been following the team for decades and always wondered who makes the call on the uniforms. I know the home teams have to submit a list prior to the season on jersey color and I'm pretty sure pants are week to week. I'm not ranting about wearing white the first few games of the season, I don't mind it. I will complain about phasing out the black/silver combo though, that was my favorite. We haven't been worth a damn since we starting wearing black/black at home all the time. Anyways, was just curious if anyone knew how that process worked. I always thought it was a group of people who went through the schedule before the season and decided. Then again there has always been rumors of one guy who did it.

Yeah it really hasn't impacted me at all, I've used/wear Panthers stuff the same amount regardless.

Jake used to give me minimum of 3 heart attacks per game with his throws.

At this point, I think this will be Andy's final run. It's maintain the starting role or just retire. I don't see him going back to be a back up.

Bengals Total Off: 15th Bengals Pass Off: 6th Bengals Rush Off: 28th Bengals Total Def: 13th Bengals Pass Def: 9th Bengals Rush Def: 26th Run the damn ball; shut down their pass and make them run= win. To our benefit, it will be raining.

Yeah because I really believe JT O'Sullivan's reads were better than Andy's despite Andy's 38k passing yards and 250 career TDs.

Give them a 7th next year if they eat some of the dead cap.

Not saying we will at all. We are the Panthers after all. But, I don't see a team on that list that could beat what the Panthers did on Sunday against the Raiders, except maybe the Saints. Ofcourse, I don't expect that every Sunday either.

Eagles probably going to smack the Bucs this week putting them at 2-2. Falcons/Saints play. If the Falcons win that puts them both at 2-2. If Andy beats his former team on Sunday, we are also 2-2. I really hope Andy doesn't have an off game in the near future and they go running back to Bryce for no good reason.

Opening 6 point underdogs to Cincinnati. Tonight, will be the first time I've really watched the Bengals this year. Going off of averages, they have a bottom 3 run game and run defense. They have the #1 pass defense though, and middle of the pack in passing offense. Could be one of those Steve Wilks weeks where we run the ball 45 times.

It only works a few times and after that players just get tired of you. It's a short term strategy and never really goes well. I bet they beat the Browns this week, but after that if they hit anymore adversity what is he going to do? Threaten jobs again? Andy broke the Raiders.

Fug it, I'll go.

I would take Zappe as a back up to Dalton. Especially if we keep running the ball well. I think if something happens to Andy they will either go get Wilson or sign Tannehill though. especially if the plan is to stay competitive through the season.

Since we are going there. I have a conspiracy theory. Last Preseason, Dalton had an "injury" and only played like 1 or 2 drives. The rest was all Corral and Luton with some Bryce. Same thing this year, it was all Plummer, some Luton, and 1 drive of Bryce. I think Dalton has intentionally not been given much exposure to hide how bad Bryce actually is. But you mention week 3 last year against Seattle? I think that was either unplanned (Bryce was actually hurt) or it was an attempt by Reich to give Bryce a chance to get his bearings together and it backfired because Dalton ran the offense well.

I think his was going to be a little while (like mid-season) if I remember right, I could be wrong. I think Crumedy, Wonnum, Barno, and Dane Jackson are all eligible to come back after the Cincinnati game this week.

I'm sure he enjoyed the chants of "Andy!" going through the tunnel.
