I have to wonder if Young is more comfortable with Brady at left tackle than Ickey …and if that means his happy feet are better because if it

…could just be lesser competition…but Giants supposed to have decent Dline

guess KC will show how much improvement is really there 

That would be weird since Ikey has allowed one sack all season.

I think it's more he is getting a little more time and distance from his battering in 2023. That takes time to get over and continuing to get your brains bashed in makes it exponentially worse(see Carr, David).

That said, he still makes the occasional insane decision from a clean pocket.

I think it's more of Bryce starting to gain confidence in that the line is no longer the absolute sieve from the interior that it was last year. He can actually follow through on fundamentals without a guy coming right at his face. Makes the tackles look better because their QB isn't drifting back as much. 

Again, money well spent because interior pressure, regardless of QB, is the most consistent way of sabotaging any NFL offense. Should be obvious but the fastest way of getting to the QB/RB is a straight line. As a painful reminder, double A gap blitz in the Super Bowl.

Yeah, look at the one rep from Sunday when Mays got dog walked straight back by Lawrence. That is the poo that gets QB's rattled and flushed. 

This year those instances have been far rarer.

That's always going to happen from time to time. You just can't have that be the norm. I'm still miffed we didn't go for one of the centers last draft because that was a missed opportunity having a rookie getting the benefit of being sandwiched between two guys who know what they're doing.

Robert Hunt is the biggest home run FA acquisition this team has had in a long while

Makes me wonder why Miami didn't try harder in keeping him, especially when they have a QB with concussion issues.

The worst place to be was Vegas watching your backup kick ass and show the team how it is done where you were totally impotent. How embarrassing. That is a motivator, a little bit. Should be. 

 I can see he is trying to do what the job calls for and respect that.  

I think some of the reason he survived last season was he was defensive as hell and I also think he is gonna get whacked pretty good if he keeps stepping into his throws NFL QB style, trying to be one. But that's the job. Maybe not, maybe he'll be resilient.

Yeah, Mays is still a backup caliber player and Lawrence is an absolutely elite DT.

Frazier was the way. Most of our OL would have been locked down for multiple years.

OMG! Best mic’ed up I’ve ever seen. 

Leadership, y’all. That’s what a man who hates losing with every fiber of his being looks like. Worth every penny. 

I see what you did there, Dan. 

He should have a "C" on his jersey for sure! Now thats leadership! The emotional leadership and the doing it by example makes that money Dan spent on him worth it.

I know its early and I personally trashed giving OGs big money, but he's already passed Matt whale imo. 

 

Maybe only Lucas and Jake are ahead....maybe luvu too....

 

Panthers has one trash FA history. Bunch of one hit wonders and past prime jobbers.....

Your memory needs some jogging

      Updated 2025 draft order

      Can something be done about this referee bias against the Panthers?

      By Day1PanthersFan · Posted

      I think it comes down to one main issue  The NFL doesn't want to market a small market teams sucess, which will sell more merchandise, Denver with Peyton Manning, or the Carolina Panthers  We are not respected in any sport except college basketball , even the national media discredits the Canes cup win because the Oils starting goalie got injured in game 1, even though he was injured by his own player driving a Cane into him trying to draw an interference call  Comes with the territory, if you are a Carolina fan, the whole world is really against you, you are not really part of the club

      Updated 2025 draft order

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      I agreed on drafting a QB is a gamble regardless of a good draft class or not. I agreed on you have to keep trying to get your QB. I was just telling you the possible reason why people want the Panthers to pass on a QB in the first round this year. Its Morgan/Canales that will get to decide their fate. If they fall for one, draft him. If they don't, then don't. Don't just draft one because you need one. No one can say for sure whether ward, sanders, or any other QB in this draft will be a franchise QB. What if we take one and he doesn't work out again. How far back would that set us? I don't think we should be scared to take one and I don't think we should just say right now to focus on 2026 for QB.  Go through the routine/norm of the off-season. Scout and do our research and make the best decision for the team moving forward. If they think that is a QB first round, fine.
