  1. Tough call. Isn't there a trick where we can place someone on IR to protect them from getting plucked and reactive them 6 games in or something? That could buy us some time and insure against an actual injury...maybe.

    ​I think youre only allowed 1 player to do this with and it would be a big risk to do it with a guy not actually hurt like tolbert was last season.

  2. ​They also need an over the middle possession guy. 

    Brown/Ginn are the speed additions that were missing during the early part of the season last year. The Panthers don't need every guy to be small and speedy, just a couple. 

     

    Bersin is a big dude with as good of hands as anyone on the team at next to zero cost. Plus, Cam loves throwing to him. Why would you want to cut a guy like that?

    ​Plus the hair.  dont dis the hair.

  3. ​Yes. He's more of an offensive weapon like William Floyd was, especially in the red zone and on 3rd downs. It's no coincidence the Panthers were 1-7-1 in regular season games that he was injured in or on temporary IR for. With him healthy in the line-up, they went 6-1 and Shula was able to be less vanilla.

    Still room for Ward on the team. We could also use a blocking fullback like Howard Griffith was for us. Brockel doesn't seem better than either Tolbert or Ward at what they do best, so the writing's on the wall for him.

    ​tolbert played 3 games before he got hurt - we won two of those and lost one of them. We beat Detroit and Tampa Bay  ( wow )  He did not appear in a game again till we played Arizona which we won.  The next game was against the Seahawks which of course we lost.

    Your story that he makes such a difference doesnt seem to have much basis.

  4. Shula is who he is at this point, I think with the additions we've made on offense, we can manage with Shula.

    The unknown factor right now, whether you want to admit it or not, is Rivera. Will that light finally come on, and stay on for him, or will he revert back to his conservative ways again only to supposedly "learn his lesson" after it's already too late, again? This is his fifth season, if we want to win a Super Bowl, his game day decision making has to become consistently better, like immediately. I can only hope that he is improved this year.

    ​I agree - how much of the season had to pass by last year before Rivera put the right guys on the field ?  He is either too loyal to his " starters " and coaches ( you can argue that we lost 2 games due to special teams last year and Rivera refused to change until the seasons end ) ,  too stubborn to admit he was wrong, or maybe just  poor at seeing the big picture and putting it all together.

     

    I like RR,  but I am not comfortable with Rivera as HC.

  5. Funny thing about that...

    Florio pointed out that when Sean Payton was suspended, "ignorance was no excuse".

    Apparently it is now :unsure:

     

     

    I heard an ex Patriot player on the radio talking about this - dont remember who it was but it was one from the 2003 team.  he said bellicheat has a finger in everything that happens with the pats.  He was also very pissed about not only this but spygate, saying that it taints all the hard work that he and most of his non cheating team mates put in.
