Raymond Felton... I'm sorry.

Dear Raymond Felton,

I am sorry for doubting you the last several years. I have now realized that the problem was me, not you. I have done alot of soul searching and I believe I have found out the epicenter of my frustrations.

I have always had two major beefs with you. One, you are not Chris Paul or Deron Williams. I had a hard on for both players in that draft, but the Bobcats decided to draft a UNC player. And that brings me to my second beef. I hate UNC and that is not going to change, but when you took that UNC uniform off, my feelings should have changed.

However, I am come to realize that the percieved shortcomings that I thought you possessed were actually my own.

When I see and hear comments about your play this one in particular.

Raymond Felton took blanket blame for the problem on the pick-and-roll, where Tyson Chandler dropped his pass late. Total class, when it really wasn't Felton's fault, and certainly wasn't all Felton's fault.

It makes me realize how you are an awesome teammate, and someone I would have loved to play with. Please re-sign with the Bobcats and continue to make me and other Bobcat's fans proud. We are lucky to have you.

Please forgive me, I promise I'll be better.

Love, BruceBrewski

Felton is a different player now than he was several years ago, but his leadership has always been there. However, Felton's shortcomings in his game (takes too many shots, not a good shooter, prone to the untimely TO) were very real. It took a HOF coach with a knack for getting the most from PGs to coach him up to where he should have been.

I personally always knew Felton was special. Having the right coach can only help him play a lot better. With how he was under Bickerstaff & Vincent, you can see why he was kinda not playing like he should be. With Brown here, we see the return of the "great" Felton from UNC. :)

      Bryce Young vs Saints analysis

      By d-dave · Posted

      I've watched and listened to several evaluations from the good ole youtubers.  From what I was able to watch, the first few drives before I left to do a job to the end of the game were very different for Bryce.  So he had a "good" game.  Which is great.  I love a win, period.  His WRs had some drops, thing ripped away, etc.  Not great, but a W is a W, right? I think the Panthers have to start Bryce.  You have to see if he continues to build on the good plays and make fewer and fewer bad plays.  No QB is going to play a perfect game.  But we need to continue to see Bryce make plays.  Does he have the ability to will his team to victory?  I'm not sure. I'm still in the Bryce is a backup QB camp.  I'm glad he had a good game, I glad we won, but I need to see more before we make a decision to keep or trade him.  Playing Andy literally does NOTHING to help you for the future.  Andy may not even resign with the Panthers.  We could be out both starting QBs by the time FA/Draft season hits. Ultimately, this is a Dan Morgan and Dave Canales issue.  Can they get value out of Bryce to help them improve the total roster?  Is there a FA QB who would be an upgrade?  A surprise cut or post season trade?  Or is there a QB at the top of the draft who they think they can mold into a high level starting QB?  I don't know. I do know I want to see more of Bryce Young and more out of him on the field.  I want to see the fire, the competitor come out.  I want him getting pissed.  I want him to grab his beanbag and tell us all he's the f'ing dude.  I just don't think we'll see that out of Bryce.  If not the fire, then let me see the ice - let me see the rattle proof dude who kills with accuracy and playmaking no matter how hot and crazy it gets.

      Ickey at LT and Brady as Center / Swing position player is more valuable to our team IMO

      That's fair but signing a veteran like Justin Fields to a one year deal and drafting defense with our first is always an option two.  I personally don't think these QBs this year are top 10 worthy selections
