Training Camp Wrapup - August 10


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

David Newton is just reporting that this is a minor injury. isnt making a big deal of it. what say you Zod? is DN full of poo?

 

I don't think the problem is the severity. I think the problem is that it has been defined (by more than just Zod) as a "lingering" issue. THAT'S what is worrisome.

fozzy did impress. but i dont see how you can say that Reaves had just as good of a game. Reaves was able to gain yards here and there. he fought for yards, even when the OL wasnt helping him. Barner was stuffed on first contacte EVERYTIME he touched the ball

What about the time where Barner trucked the safety and got 8 yards on the play (the longest run besides Joe Webb)? Blame Barner all you want but even Big Mike Tolbert couldn't get through that OLine that night.

That KB pic of him in the air. Wow

 

Jeremy, can you explain why you think Tre won't make it this season?

 

He is a 4th round rookie that has missed some of the OTA's and the first two weeks of training camp completely.

 

I am pulling for him, he seems like a really great dude, but he is way behind.

"Lingering knee injury" is not something I like to hear when talking about a 300+ lbs lineman we're counting on for the season. This furthers my belief that Gettleman is looking everywhere for who might be cut at OT.

I don't know. He had plenty of choices at the start of free agency and didn't bite at all.

You have to think someone better than Garry Williams will become available on the cuts to 53.

I would hope so but they didn't last year. Rebuilding a team takes time and we have dealt with years of a GM using the draft to build the wrong positions.

And if you go back and look at the game most of the time when Barner was stuffed it wasn't just one person. It seemed like the flood gates opened up for the defense. Plus we knew even before we drafted Barner he wasn't going to be a bruiser, that's just not his game. And it's funny because the coaches don't help Barner out at all obviously he's not a between the tackle runner, they don't run plays to get him to the outside.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
