Bruce Arians blows hot air

Bruce Arians, admitted liar, is trying to spin that the weather benefits his team (who practiced all week in near perfect conditions) more than the Panthers (who practiced all week in conditions that will more closely approximate game time conditions).  Bruce doth protests too much, methinks.

Quote

"Sunday is going to be 37, wind about six miles an hour," Arians said, via the Arizona Republic. "You couldn't ask for better than that in Charlotte."

Quote

Arians said, other than practicing with wet footballs, Arizona didn't worry one iota about the weather. The coach added that the weather conditions could actually give the Cardinals an advantage because their practices weren't interrupted or affected.

"This is one of the best practice areas in the league," he said of the Arizona facility. "Indoors or outdoors, we're never going to miss or disrupt our week of practice. But yeah, that's (practicing outside) got to be hurting (the Panthers)."

Man, I guess if Bruce said it, he must be right. I mean, practicing in the same temps you'll play in as opposed to practicing in 80% humidity at 75 degrees (I'm no ARI weatherman, I have no idea if this is accurate - sounds good though) has to be awful for your team...

Nah, Bruce. Gonna be a tough sell for you my man.

Well, practicing in Arizona sure as hell did not help his team the last two games.

They gotbthevever living poo beat out of them in Week 16 by the Hawks and were damn lucky to win last week against a mediocre Packers team.

They are about to walk into a buzz saw in Carolina...and they are all just too stupid to know it.

I get that this is a panther forum, and you're suppose to talk crazy about the opposing team. But your nuts if you think Bruce isn't a good guy or coach. 

Today he is the enemy. This is not the time to talk about what a great guy he is. This is football.

I mean just off his hat game along, I think he's one of the coolest coaches in the league. 

Nobody cares. He said something ridiculous. He's going to get mocked for it. Nobody cares if he's your bronie.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
