Saw this over at panthers.com, thought it was pretty interesting.

 

"We like to rotate based on situations," Rivera said. "Early on, when (the Lions) were coming out in certain packages, we thought it would be better for Roman. If it had been a different type package, it might have been Charles a little more.

"It was the potential for the inside running game," Rivera added. "They ran the ball pretty well last week against the Giants, and that was one of the concerns that we had."

I really don't understand Rivera's infatuation with Godfrey. If he's not contributing, cut him and get someone else.

I think it is coaches talk....

They made it so it would be tough for Godfrey to even make the team. Injury helped him.

Godfrey saw heavy reps week 1 bc Harper couldn't go a bc he wasn't conditioned. First chance he gets and Godfrey becomes near invisible in favor of old man Harper

The guy must walk on water at practice.  Rivera loves him and so did Fox.  Both of those guys know defense.  I don't get it.  I've never seen it on Sundays, so it must be happening on the practice field.

      Smitty on TMac

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
