I was watching live when it happened, and I thought the same thing too. I rewound it and watched it slo-mo, she ate it big time!!

Don't know how long this one will stay up.

It didn't stay up long, already been taken down. I haven't seen what is posted but I know exactly what you guys are talking about I saw it live as well. I have it dvr'd here's a gif instead.

I am trying to figure out what the hell happened! It's obvious she was traveling at a deceivingly high rate of speed. At first I thought maybe her rear tire broke loose because of the paint line, but it breaks loose before the tire crosses the line. So, did she just lock down the front brakes knowing she had no rear traction in order to stop? I thought maybe she hit the curb and it caused her to go over the bars. But it's clear the front wheel locked up before she made to the curb. Was it a mechanical failure? Maybe she locked it down to avoid being obliterated by the trees? Hitting trees at that rate of speed would probably be life threatening, if not obliterating. Maybe there is a steep drop off on the other side of the tree line? I can only speculate she intentionally locked down the front wheel knowing the disastrous results. I thought she was dead too!

Watching that over and over...  The front wheel does seem to to slip before the back tire gets loose....  I wonder if some moisture started to form on the road? You hit the front brake with those skinny tires and thats not a good combination.....

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
