I love paying guys who prove themselves coming into their prime. Also, it very easy to structure a 4 years deal with 15 guaranteed to be very team friendly and good for both sides. It's pretty much 12-15th ranked RB money. We also traded around in that round and got an extra 2nd rounder next year and still got Brooks, who I might add would have been an easy first round pick had it not been for the injury. It's still all educated guesses but you've adding some cover you ass insurance with these moves in case of injury or just being wrong about a guys talent. Longer seasons. You had in all these factors together and this is exactly the kind of move very smart GM's make. I forgot to add how much Canales uses RB's in his system in the run and pass games. Chubba is currently tied with Legette for 2nd on the team in receptions. He is one behind Sanders for 3rd in targets. Canales also loves efficiency and his 5 ypc are elite. And that isn't to say about the guy as a teammate and team leader. That's worth money too. ESPECIALLY, when you are a bad team and you're a new coach trying to build a new culture. Hell, man could be the lynch pin to this team's chemistry. Unless Dave and Dan make some extremely stupid move they deserve to build this team like they think is best. Keep pounding.

I didn't put "BREAKING" in the title. Just saying the man has been a bright spot on the team and produced. Hope he gets us a pick or gets paid. His game winning TD run today brought me a lot of joy that has been hard to come by in Panther land. Great game Chuba! Thank you and keep pounding!

...for telling your husband and worst football coach the Panthers have ever had to draft Chuba Hubbard. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/matt-rhules-wife-pushed-for-panthers-to-draft-chuba-hubbard Rhule says his wife Julie texted him 10 minutes before the pick to say “please take Chuba Hubbard” and Panthers owner David Tepper then gets on the phone with Hubbard to confirm the existence of the text. https://x.com/Panthers/status/1388557759776448516 He is worth resigned for the right price or trade him to Dallas for a pick before the deadline. Either way the young man has taken the opportunity and "ran" with it.

I'm genuinely asking. Why was his play calling so bad today? I actually thought he called a pretty good game today and put the team and Bryce in position to keep the sticks moving. He didn't put Bryce into many positions to get him killed or force him to play hero ball or force throws. He also didn't treat Bryce like a scab player and called plays where it was up to Bryce to execute the play call and push the ball downfield. Two times we punted on 4th and short much to the amazement of the announcers but both times proved to be the correct call as our defense stopped the Saint and gave us the ball back with great field position. That lead to 10 of our points. Not perfect but I don't see what all the pearl clutching is about. 19 rushing attempts to 30 pass, with 4 of those pass calls Bryce took off and ran. That is a pretty good distribution and didn't abandon either facet of the game.

DJ Johnson?

You keep him at LT and extend Brady. Brady at center next year, worst case. Moton has one more year on his contract. Keep drafting linemen every year for depth and another starter if necessary. This is a good problem to have. Either Icky gets better at picking up speed rushers or we are prepared for the future with moving him to RT and plugging in BC or another draft pick. I'm more in favor of giving guys with a lot of talent the time to learn and get better, especially if we can keep the same system for more than one year.

Resign Brady to an extension. Move Icky to RT next year. I've been wanting BC to start at LT since we got him. Rhule never even gave him a chance there. Big shoutout to Cade Mays starting at center for the game and doing a solid job.

F tanking anymore. Not worth it with how many times teams are saved from themselves by not getting what you think you wanted. I said last week this team was starting to remind me a tiny bit of other teams that went on to have a lot of success in regards to young guys and coaches learning and growing together. Winning feels soooo good. Keep pounding.

Mine too. That's really how I knew but anyone not worried about losing to a last 2nd FG would be lying.

I talked to your wife. She said she's always telling you that you are wrong.

Let's go!!!

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that any college players coming into the NFL from college would be considered raw relative to his NFL experience. Original poster would have to confirm.

Panthers laughing out loud at Carr trying to make them jump offside. That was funny.

Somewhere a stoic riverboat Ron is still not smiling.

Great pass and catch beats good coverage. Good stop on the 2 point conversion. Let's go Panthers. Let's answer.

Both sides have ton of injuries. I'm not good enough to compute if every starter was playing and no one was playing hurt. Just responding to the play on the field with the professional NFL players that are playing.

Not being aggressive with a shaky young QB and a struggling team on 3rd and 15 is now horrible play calling? In a close game where our defense is playing relativly well?

Panthers holding Saints to a field goal numerous times in the redzone has been impressive.

I'm impressed with both of the decisions to punt on 4th and short. The announcer was dumb founded on both decisions but both let to short fields and points on the next drive. Sanders (TE) has whiffed on some key blocks. Bryce playing better but still nothing to write home about. XL and Coker continue to makes plays each game and improving.

The Bears defense is actually good. Injuries. A lot of them. Wallace, a rookie, calling the plays and the Bears knew it. That was the reason for all the hurry up. Canales isn't the reason we lost. He is the next logical person fans can blame. PS. There isn't any questions about Bryce that the Panthers and Canales haven't already been telling everyone. If people don't want to believe him, that's on them.

The last thing I want to do is read what the average fan thinks. Most can't think past the last game they watched. Now we have people trying to say we were really pretty good last year and the whole problem was just Bryce. The coaching staff, playcalling, play of the rest of the team was not good. Giving up on a high draft pick after nearly killing him with 9 different starter at guard, horrible play calling and a below average run game is not a recipe for a rookie QB. I'm not blind. His play the first two weeks of this season was awful and 100% is not good enough to play QB in the NFL, starter or backup. If this is who he is and there is no hope for improvement then he'll be out of the league soon enough. Go watch the All 22 film. There is a lot of horrible plays but there are also a lot of good one. NFL level ability, throws and runs. More than enough examples of good plays to say if he can play like that consistently then he can be an NFL starting QB. It's very easy to see the biggest problem now is his confidence which has caused him to regress even more and make his good traits average or worse and his bad traits look like they can't be fixed. We know he's a young kid. We know last year the panthers did a horrible job putting in a position to be successful. We know that our new head coach excels at helping and training QBs. We know we've already paid a good deal of his contract. We know he's very willing to learn and has a good attitude despite his situation. We know he has the raw ability to play at this level because he has already done it. There are a great number of reasons not to throw the kid out on his butt just yet. We are at the bottom of the league. We don't have the pleasure of throwing any potential away. Worse case we miss out on a 4th or 5th round pick. Best case, Canales is the real deal and he turns Bryce into the player he was in college but at the NFL level.

Is the link invisible?

Teams that suck and have good players with ending contracts try to trade them before they end. Shocker.

I don't see how we all got took so easy. I believed it was possible that he could be good after watching him win so much in college and win all those award. I think there were only a few mock drafts where he fell out of the first round. I'm not sure how he was able to throw TD passes in college but can't do it now. Maybe he threw too much in college wore out some tenders or maybe he took a hit to his shoulder from TJ Watt and can't actually throw down the field anymore. Tepper probably covering it up. I wonder if Tepper do a trade with the state of NC. Trade the NFL rights to Bryce in exchange for the city of Rock Hill. Tepper has done crazier things. Anyway. Keep Pounding. This thread is the kind the Huddle once posted from other teams forums for us to laugh at and mock.
