Hunter Bailey Talks 49ers Football With Wes & Walker
The Charlotte 49ers entered last weekend at 2-6, needing to win out to qualify for a bowl game, in the first year under Biff Poggi. That possibility looked bleak, when Charlotte found itself down 17-0, on the road to the Tulsa Golden Hurricane. Instead, for the first time really all season, they responded well to adversity and would force overtime, eventually winning 33-26.
Panthers Fans Out on Bryce Young After 1-7 Start
There isn't a more criticized position to play in sports than QB, and Bryce Young is learning that the hard way in the NFL. After being the best QB at the high school, and college level, Young's transition to the NFL has been more steep than initially thought. Young arguably had his worst game as a pro, as he threw three interceptions in the loss to the Colts yesterday afternoon, two of which were returned for touchdowns, as he essentially gave the opponent more points, than he gave his own team.

Terrence Oglesby Talks Hornets First Homestand
Believe it or not, the first week of the NBA season is in the books, and the Hornets find themselves, 1-2, as they prepare to hit the road for the first time in 2023-24. Charlotte opened the season with an impressive showing, taking down the Hawks, before losing back-to-back games, to the Pistons and the Nets respectively. While Brandon Miller has impressed off the bench, LaMelo Ball has struggled to shoot the ball efficiently from the field, and veterans Gordon Hayward, and Terry Rozier are still rounding into form.
Bryce Young Overcomes Adversity in First NFL Win
For the first time as a starting QB in the NFL, Bryce Young led the Panthers to a 15-13 win over the Houston Texans, to secure his first win as a starter, and the first win under new head coach Frank Reich. The final score would indicate that the game wasn't pretty, and you'd be exactly right, but for a winless team, the Panthers aren't looking for style points, but instead something to build off of, as the season moves forward.
