and further.

lol at him trying to polish that turd of a saints game where teddy bridgewater and a sean "who cares let em win" peyton really gave us their all.

I've seen you and a number of people complain that we won the NO game last year.  It almost appears that you think NO wanted to lose just to screw over the Panthers draft and the Panthers were stupid to try to win.  But let's say the teams were reversed.

Let's say the Panthers had locked up home field for the playoffs and here comes one of our division rivals for the last game of the year.  They are coming in 6-9, so the difference between winning and losing is picking 9th or picking 16th.  Would you expect the Panthers to lay down and try to lose to screw over this rival?  Do you think the Panthers should care if they win or lose since they have already wrapped up home field?  Do you think the rival coming in should lay down and play their scrubs so that they can get a higher pick the next year?  Would you pull for the Panthers to lose in this circumstance?

Just curious how and any others think the Panthers should or would treat this meaningless game.

There’s no use man...some people complain just to complain. Their answer will be “No we wouldn’t do that cause that idiot Ron is out here playing checkers, while gods like Sean Payton are playing chess just to stick it to us in the draft”. Everything is a conspiracy theory.

Our DC was in over his head last year, our DBs coach was just collecting a paycheck and Rivera let the defense/team overall get two flat tires and major front end damage before grabbing the wheel and steering us back onto the road. Everyone on D struggled last year until Rivera took back over. I'll admit that it's tempting to lump in Gaulden with Butler, Sanchez, Worley, etc., but he deserves to at least go through a training camp with an engaged coach, who will actually try to get something out of him.

Give him a shot. Young guys need a chance to learn and a chance to show they can make it. Best of luck to him, at free safety or nickel.

Hopefully we will have enough pass rush this year to help out. It would make a huge difference.

I agree we need to give him a chance to develop.  I know he is hated bc we picked him and not Harrison.  And his measurables are questionable. But he is switching positions.  They should have a pretty good idea after OTA’s and mini camp whether we need to go another direction for this year.

You're probably right. The exact same scenario that we faced last year happened in 2015. We did not lay down. Cam played and we beat the crap out of the bucs.  The bucs used their higher pick wisely on heargraves (lol).  No way I'm laying down for anyone and I wouldn't want my team to lay down either.

      Panthers Saints Game Week 1

      By Iron Saint · Posted

      Meh. He played well on the special teams units but despite safety becoming a dire position we needed a warm body at, he was a complete non-factor on defense to justify keeping him around. He averaged 10.2 defensive snaps per game across 12 games last year and couldn't overtake Howden or Abram for the position (both of whom were brought back this year). Maybe he'll play better at CB for y'all but I wouldn't hold out much hope. As mid of a head coach Allen may be, he knows his stuff regarding the secondary so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on it.

      couple more things re: extreme hots and colds and the EV use tax. In the winter months, I can confirm that the range isn't as far, but it has never given me range anxiety except the first time I made a trip to Myrtle Beach and wasn't accounting for it. I just had to detour and use a Supercharger for 5 min and the rest of the trip was no issue. Summer months have never been an issue at all.  NC has a $140.25 EV Registration fee every year, which amounts to the gas/use tax for ICE.

      Just seeing this thread, and after browsing, I figured I would drop in and add my 2 cents. I hope this answers some of the questions or misconceptions that I have noticed.   I have owned a 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus since Dec 2020, and love it. Absolute best car I have ever personally owned.  Current daily driver of 100 miles round trip to work and back.  Level 2 Charger at home in Garage.   The battery in my car was still designed to charge to ~80% for daily usage, only going above for trips etc preferably. The current batteries they recommend to charge to 100%.   1st year was in an apartment, 40 miles round trip at that point. Would highly depend on public level 2 charger at the library near me, and would also use 110v at work occasionally on weekends. Supercharger for travel. It wasn’t the most optimal, but I made it work. No maintenance in this year outside of tire rotations.   Years 2+, I am now driving 100 miles round trip to work. Level 2 charger in my garage.  I get home from work at ~25% charge, and charge back to my daily 80% in ~3.5hrs. On 110v, you can expect that will be over 24hrs. So for daily driver usage you will want a level 2 charger. For piddling around town, 110v will probably be fine. I had a part fail that was covered under warranty, and tire replacement/rotations for maintenance.     Tires: I have 99k+ miles on my car currently. I will put my 2nd set of tires on it at ~110k.   When I have had people ask me how I like my car, I always show them these 2 pages from the Tesla app. The numbers there are based on what I pay for kWh ($0.11) vs est cost of gas in NC at $3.93 per gallon. People who are concerned about the higher cost vs ICE probably don’t figure in the gas savings, or time/cost getting oil changes etc.  My car payment isn’t that much higher than any other car I’ve owned (shrug).   I know this is personal, and I don’t like the guy either, but I would not let Musk keep me from owning the brand. Thats like Henry Ford keeping you from owning Ford for, well….   Tesla currently have the best charging infrastructure for travel. Longest trip I have made is to Williamsburg VA from Triangle region. No issues getting there, no range anxiety etc. Sure stops can take longer for charging etc, but they are mostly setup at restaurants, gas stations etc for breaks, but ideally you’re not charging back to full at a stop. The best way to travel is to charge enough for you to get to the next stop. It’s faster at the batteries get juice faster when they are lower.  I have never seen another brand using Tesla superchargers tho I have heard it’s coming. But I have seen assholes pull their boats horizontally in charging stations 😉   If you are curious about how an EV would play into travel, check out https://abetterrouteplanner.com . Put in any EV you want, it will show you the path, time and time per charge etc. Great tool.
