He wouldn’t have hurt his ankle had he tried to tackle like a man and not dive a foot in front of Jacobs feet then lay there in the fetal position.  

Yep, that was total weak sauce.

Folks, if you told me that we would be starting Douglas and Pride, I would be totally happy with that---considering the circumstances.

Too early to come to a conclusion on his play. 

IIRC, he was covering Ruggs. From what I saw, he's going to be a star. Too fast to contain ...for any corner. 

I will say his tackling needs work. I'l give Rhule & co. the benefit of the doubt. Meaning despite being a 2nd round pick, I think we are truly playing the best players at each position. Donte earned the #1 spot in camp (not that it was alot of competition) so hopefully that counts for something. 

Either way, we'll see. Hope his injury isn't too serious. We'll will need him come Sunday. 

Evans, Godwin, Gronk, OJ Howard, Brate vs. Douglas, Pride, Whitehead, Shaq ... not favorable. 

Not to mention Fournette, Ronald Jones and Lesean Mccoy

Not re-signing Bradberry was a really bad move. Top 3 corner the Panthers have ever had.

we never had a chance to sign Bradberry. He didnt even listen to our offers... he said it on the Eisen podcasr.

I saw him get beat by JuJu where Ben just threw it and Juju made a play. It’s gonna happen. I also saw JB force a freak fumble that would have been a huge mo swing if the Giants would have recovered. 
 

like I get the the whole “fug him he sucks” way of thinking whenever your team lets a player leave and you start reaching for excuses like “he not worth the money, average player, etc” but letting Bradberry wall, a homegrown player that they actually developed was boneheaded. 
 

panthers are unfortunately a “feeder” team for big market clubs. 

Bradberry didnt want to sign here. That was firmly stated. As for us being a feeder team for big markets- who else in the last 5 years was fed to another team?

We have hungry rookies and then we have lazy vets.  I think the answer is obvious especially since this year is the rebuild.

Top 3? Gamble, Davis and Norman all better.  Evans and Lucas are about on par with him

doug evans had probably the best year for a corner in panthers history

Where did Bradberry get burned last night; I saw him get hit by a rub slightly on a pick play and couldn't get back in great position...but everyone in here sounds like he got just beat 1-1 for a TD lol.

If he's as trash as y'all say why you pissed off he's injured? Let his eventual replacement, Pride, and the other guys play in his place. Even Eli Apple might be able to get some PT, we can use that playing time to see if the coaching staff can fix him and make him a decent starter before we draft Patrick Surtain II next year.

Also, I still fail to see what the hell yall saw in James Bradberry

It was on eisen’s podcast. Pretty sure it was early March. He said he just felt it was the right time to move on.  He was frustrated with the team due to them not signing him to a big deal extension at the beginning of the season. This is before he signed with the giants.

 

if you’d like to attempt to debunk me - go ahead and search the archives. I’m not doing that for you.

You can’t provide a link because it doesn’t exist. You are speculating. You are fake news.
