I know nothing about Erin Andrews...can you help?  Or coaching girls middle school basketball.

Sure.

After Erin Andrews realized she had to comport herself more professionally to be taken seriously as a journalist, she became one of the better sideline reporters on TV. I have never watched one second of Dancing with the Stars, so I'll let others determine if Andrews is any good hosting that show. She has overcome quite a bit of adversity -- including cervical cancer and an incident in which some creep named Michael Barrett (not the former Cubs catcher of the same name) spied on her at a hotel -- but she has gone on to become quite wealthy, and she is now married to former NHL player Jarret Stoll. I am happy for her success.

Rather than bogging down the NFL thread with your typical dribble, you could have learned all of the above (and more) here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erin_Andrews

As for coaching middle school girls basketball, or any other basketball, one thing I am constantly learning is how much more I need to learn.

Go Panthers!

All because you set her on the right path.  Thoughts and prayers were answered.

Panthers better off without Cam Newton...



Good to see ESPN now saying what I said...healthy Allen better than partially injured Cam.  ESPN speculating Cam may be gone after this year. Several Panthers players saying this is Allen’s team now.

Allen has yet to throw an interception this year.  4-0 as the QB.

Except that’s not what you said lol.

Great analysis though. A team is better with their backup when their starter isn’t healthy enough to play. You really are the genius you want everyone to know you are.

To be fair, initially you did not say anything about his injury status.

You later amended.

Saints are 4-0 since Teddy Bridgewater took over.  They’re a better team with him than Drew Brees

Mahomes was never going that that high. But I wanted Watson all year leading up to the draft and seeing him succeed hurts on a regular basis

Not terrible, but same old same old.  Overpaying their top players and when the top players cannot play, they have no depth.  That has been the story for two decades.  Then the clapping ginger on the sidelines...clapping and clapping.  They have continued to go after elite guys at certain positions, but when they don't play (like 4 of them today), their drop off on the depth chart is staggering.  The formula hasn't worked in a long time.

I said Panthers better off without Cam Newton...

The ellipsis mattered then and matters today...which led to the entire ellipsis comment since people apparently didn't know what it meant and instead concentrated on whether it was 3 or 4 dots.  LOL.  I did the ellipsis on purpose and predictably got the reaction I expected as people lost their minds.  Meanwhile, it still holds true.  Since last year and into this year, with Cam 0-8 and 13 interceptions.  Allen 4-0 and zero interceptions. 

Panthers better off without Cam Newton...true then, true today.

Only problem with this is, of course, you are wrong.  Bridgewater lost the first game without Brees against the Rams...yes, I know he didn't start.  Saints were also fine with Brees and with Teddy.  The Panthers have sucked with Cam since last year playing hurt, and into this year.  Big difference...Cam has been a net negative to the team since middle of last year.  Brees has not. No comparison.

They are down 21-9 against the Jets, and look like they don't have an offense or defense. That is terrible, the rest is just excuses.

Also, Dak just doesn't see the field well. He misses wide open receivers too often for the NFL level.

Clapping Ginger.  Dak doesn't play defense.

You are right, Dak is about a 4th round player which is where he was drafted.  Whether or not excuses or not, they have huge drop offs at certain positions because they do not have depth...it has been this way for years.  It is why I picked the Packers over the Cowboys and some of the braniacs here said I was wrong....hmm, guess not.

Just to be clear.

Do you believe the Panthers are better off without a healthy Cam Newton?

Or do you believe the Panthers are only better off without an injured Cam Newton?
