Now if we're talking beef steak, I just use coarse sea salt and fresh ground black pepper. I don't mess around too much with that. And there are times when I'm doing chicken on the grill that I just use old bay. With pork loin chops (probably what we grill the most) my wife has some ginger soy sauce garlic marinade she puts them in overnight.

For me it was like when we drafted Clausen. Wasn't a fan of the idea, but when it happened I forced myself to be positive about it. My worst fears were realized with those two. This with Young is a lot like I felt with Cam. I love it and I feel legit great about it.

I think most of us know this. Even the few remaining Bryce detractors get it. If anyone was laughing at you it wasn't because of the Bryce thing.

And you were the only person talking him up.

It's very much on par with George's. Can't go wrong with either. I usually keep both on hand. sometimes the original of the George's and the spicy Scott's. Carolina treat's got it's own thing going on. George's abd Scott's is most likely the bbq sauce I grew up on going to pig pickins.

Been in a lot of places in Texas. Houston was the only one I could do without. Dallas was fine. San Antonio wasn't bad at all. Austin is one of my favorite places anywhere. In my top 3 places I hope to retire in.

And all those in that list....not stuff i get excited about when I see it on the shelf.

My go to sauces My kids like Sweet Baby Ray's original. It's ok (kind of boring), but for pork or chicken over a pit it's got to be vinegar based with a serious kick. I do enjoy smoked pork done well without sauce, but I really love that spicy vinegar tang. Not a fan of sweet sauces at all.

it will start to change this year. a lot of excitement in the team (except for that grumpy constipated minority that is still whining over Bryce). this team is going to start winning games soon and will be getting a lot of love from the media because of Bryce and Reich. just be ready, because that means an influx of bandwagon fans (which is ok because most of us were bandwagon fans at one point).

i don't think you're going to be far off from what really happens. seems pretty reasonable.

i won't argue the total yardage...though i think it might be a bit high going to the WRs. remember, there will also be a good bit thrown to the RBs and TEs. Rookie QB + Reich offense is going to be TE heavy and rookie QBs rely heavily on the safe outlet of a good pass catching RB. wouldn't surprise me to see no WR going above 750 yards this year, but several above 500 and the ball spread out pretty evenly. highest yardage from the WRs will be the guy that can get open the most consistently.

a vikings fan is saying that a former lifetime viking that they wanted to return and left for a conference rival is going to see a drop in production?

This 100%. We'll do quite a bit better than last year and last year almost had us winning the division. I think 1) people are thrown by the notion that a team who picked 1st overall could become a legit contender in the playoffs and 2) that this is the same crappy panthers team we've seen the past half decade. Newsflash ....we aren't your usual team who picked 1st overall because they "earned" it. We didn't earn it. We paid for it. We were a decent team held back by inferior coaching (remember the turnaround we had moving from Rhule to Wilks...now imagine taking another few steps forward using a much better coaching staff with a full off-season) and also held back by crap QB play. Young is an instant and drastic upgrade from what we've had the last half decade. (Sorry if any of you can't see that yet, but you will). This team will win at least 3 more games this year than last just because of the upgrade in coaching and QB. Of this I am completely confident.

good.

Top 3 in '24

Because it's the browns.

between the pats, browns, and panthers... i think panthers are the only ones trending upward.

you make it sound like it's an annoying thing. from where i'm standing it's worth getting and being continually excited about.

Above the mod pay grade. @Zod

i used to be a fan of them. never saw that, though. probably would have made me skip over later albums. that was bad. i mean even for 80s metal videos that was bad

Agreed and fixed

Glad Shy is on our team.

from what i've seen from Young, it would make sense. i mean i could see him being that guy.

carolina 2023 = the best situation a rookie QB could have fallen into.
