I do like the all-black look as an alternate uniform ... but I'd rather they had a great quarterback.

I don't know about "great" but I personally think that Mayfield can be a very good quarterback. He was playing well before he got hurt last year and ended up playing hurt pretty much all season. The Browns did him a real disservice by allowing it. I hope he does really well for Carolina.

I think that Carolina made a very good trade there. As a Browns fan, I hope that management learned a little something about the stupidity of totally trashing and devaluing a player before you try to trade him. I doubt it.

When you suck, as the Panthers do now and have for most of their existence, you'll try to find non-results ways to fire up the masses.

They just announced that, for the first time, they'll wear black helmets, black jerseys and black pants in their one prime-time game this season (Thu 11/10). The short video they released along with the announcement said they're "bringing out the Dark Side."

https://www.panthers.com/news/panthers-unveil-black-helmets-all-black-uniform-combination?utm_source=email&utm_medium=email_news&utm_campaign=black_helmets_2022&utm_content=07-19&utm_term=subscriber_news

I don't do Panthers fan sites -- Scoop's as much fan fun as I can handle -- but newspaper reports say those sites are "blowing up" after seeing the video. I do like the all-black look as an alternate uniform ... but I'd rather they had a great quarterback.

Those are nice. It’s about time the NFL let teams get more creative with the different colored helmets. There should be some solid alternates this year.

I agree it was a good trade. The Panthers gave up very little and won't have to pay most of the salary Mayfield's due.

He played pretty darn well in 2020, including a great performance in a playoff win at Pittsburgh, and we Panthers fans are hoping that a healthy, motivated Mayfield could make our team one of the NFL's surprise stories this season. The Panthers have some offensive weapons (if McCaffrey stays healthy) and they've upgraded what had been a horrible line ... so come on, Baker, show us what you've got!

I don’t think they are doing it to make fans happy. These new look unis are money trees.

Did they change the uniform rule? I thought it was just allowing a second helmet now. Not many fans are buying helmets.

These Panthers helmets are great - best adaptation of the new shell rule, at least until the Bengals' pictures leak. The Saints black lids are gross...they should have gone white

Yeah that isn't great.  He can come off anytime before first game, but yeah... he might be done if this doesn't resolve soon.

He's been very open with his recovery.

He wants out.  My sources tell me him and Rodgers had a major blowup in the locker

Why were they in the locker room for the 49ers/Rams NFC Championship game?

Rodgers was trying to broker a trade to the 49ers and Shanahan invited him to the game.  Bahk found out and confronted him at the game.  Big blowout

Advances in treating leukemia have come a long way. I can remember Red Skelton making a heartfelt plea at the end of his weekly TV show back in the 1950s in raising funds for leukemia research after the death of his 8 year old son succumbed to the disease. Then there was the tragic story of Ernie Davis. It is gratifying that the word leukemia is no longer a certain death sentence it once was.

The movie the Express is well worth the time. It is the story about Ernie Davis the first African American to win the Heisman Trophy.

This is all true. As many of you know, back in 2014, my then four year old son was diagnosed with AML leukemia. There's no "good leukemia" and AML has the worst survival rate of all forms of leukemia. The reality of things is that had my son been born in 1995, instead of 2010, it probably would have turned out very differently (that's the best way I can put it).

Need more Be The Match donors though, if you've ever thought about it, it's easy to get tested, and very much can save someone's life.

Did the Cardinals just guarantee $160 million to a guy they don't trust?

The Athletic came out with their QB tiers today based off of the opinions of coaches, GMs, coordinators and scouts. The 2 highest paid QBs are ranked 9th and 13th. Neither is considered a Tier 1 QB.

Not surprising, it seems like whoever signed most recently is the highest paid, regardless of performance. That said, the Brown's contract with Watson is a major head scratcher. Typical Browns.  ::)

Watson would be totally worth it, if not for the off the field stuff, at least his actual performance as a QB justifies the money.  He was tremendous in 2020.  Not like a guy who needs a preparation stipulation in his contract.

He's fun to watch when he's at his best, but Ive thought Murray was a clown without personality and a lame attitude going back to his OU days.  Nothing has changed that sentiment since he got to the NFL
