I had MJD and DeAngelo....and it was due to DeAngelo that I am the Huddle champ.

Most of these folks are either listening to the pundits who are not convinced that Williams can repeat last year's performance. He was basically unknown last year since the Panthers are basically ignored in the media since we're a small market team. I remember getting some grief even from other Panther fans about taking the chance on Williams and you see how it paid out....

I don't see anything wrong with it. Turner is the flavor of the week and has been for a couple of years. You guys have been around long enough to know the press dynamic. They don't change until they're slapped repeatedly around the face and head - and somebody else tells them what to say...

It's not reality and yet, it's not fantasy either, it's pure fiction...

How the hell is MJD that high? Seriously?

Because there's no more Fred Taylor to split carries. Plus, I think there were only 4 choices in that poll. With that being said, I wish I was in a money league with the 40% who chose Turner, he's due for injury this year with all those carries.

I think FF is stupid to begin with. But I do read the write ups ranking players and I do not understand what the hype for Forte is all about.

Because Forte does not split near as much time as the other backs do. All do to the amount of touches

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.

      Dream big: Imagine this future and tell me how you feel

      I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
