Per J.Jones.Very confusing this whole affair.Vikings send out a press release saying that he will play.Would this also influence Hardys status? We will see.Impossible to predict what the team will do with him..now, tomorrow or next month...who the hell cares anymore.

If they bench Hardy until his court date.....that would mean he misses more games than he would face if the new outlined punishment was enforced.

So Hardy will be back at some point soon I would imagine. NFLPA will flex some of their muscle in all this too.

Teams probably need that to come to light too

How are the Panthers going to explain Hardy starting now.. You can't say due process because that's why he started against Tampa. The Panthers are gonna have to come up with something creative if they want Hardy back on the field. 

 

Vikings say Adrian Peterson will play this week. Now the Panthers are on deck to stick finger in the air to see which way wind's blowing.

The Panthers FO would have to do some serious PR work this week if they expect to play Hardy on Sunday.

 

 

I personally think there is no chance he plays, especially in the biggest primetime game of the week.

 

As I've said elsewhere, I would like to see a six game suspension (including yesterday) and then he comes back.

 

As Florio points out though, Hardyand the NFLPA would have a case against that.

 

It's all fugged up right about now.

      I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
