Panthers Training Camp - Monday Camp Thread

Those were some ugly throws and bad decisions from the QBs today. I get the feeling they could use a vet in the room

Saw CMC, DJ, & Shi Smith were the ones I remember from practice off the top of my head, but I know there were more.  

Shi Smith's best chance to not end up on the practice squad is winning the PR job IMO.

Thanks- I sure do not want to see CMC or DJ returning punts. I hope Shi Smith is up to the challenge. It’s too bad one guy ie- Cannon- can’t do both.

We are going to the playoffs this season.  Mark it down.

 

And to back it up I am putting $1000 on the over for vegas win totals.  7.5

 

I may drop $500  on the +1200 for NFC south champs

You don't want to risk injury to a player of their caliber on a punt return.  If it's your last chance to win the SB game then sure go all out.

The Darnold pick was on Ian. He ran the wrong route and puts his hands on a ball intended for Robby. Ian looked like he was intercepting the ball, haha.

 

Judging by the positioning of the rest of the receivers, Ian was supposed to break inside.

Interesting that WRs are getting called out for “running bad routes” and such’

 

I saw rhule say that. But looking at darnolds first interception idk if it was Ian Thomas or Robby Anderson that ran the wrong route. It looked like the ball was intended for Robby and Ian put his hands on it causing Robby to whiff.

Given what was said earlier in the off-season about Thomas not learning the playbook last year and Robby seemingly being prepared it’s not hard to see why I would think that one was on thomas

second interception was 100% on darnold. The play call looked iffy to begin with for that situation but throwing it to the only wr getting doubled isn’t the best look.

excited for the pads to come on so we can start seeing how the o line shakes out, and obviously so the guys can really get to work sorting things out

Well bro that's what happens when you trade for a QB that was a bust on the Jets and pass up a good QB in the first round of the draft that fell to you.

It is usually safe to assume Ian Thomas made a mistake.

Why is he still here? Seriously.

The team does put a certain amount of value on physical talent, and Thomas at least has that.

If he can't get his mental game up to standard though...

How long are we supposed to wait for this imaginary physical talent to produce on the field?  He's been a waste of a roster spot since day one.

Barring a breakout year, I think the most time he's got left is this season.

(and I do think it's possible he doesn't even make it that far)

I wouldn't waste another camp on him. Just move on already.
