Third time in four years he has been placed on IR in the month of September (per J.Jones). Time to give him an injury settlement and be done with it. Don't know how much longer they can hold pat without signing another lineman. If anyone goes down they will be in worse shape then they are now.. if that's possible.

The dumpster fire offensive line is a disgrace

Surely there had to be someone in the US or any where else in the world that can play oline for this team better than who is there now

If people think Newton is hurt now, if he does not start rolling out of that pocket or something does not change in the play calls, sitting him will be a moot point

IMHO

Everyone slurped Gettleman for gambling on a crappy OL, can't go back now.

Slurped? Really if I'm not mistaken most people were outspoken in their distrust in this Oline. Countless of us were rallying against the lack of a good Olineman. I think when you say everyone you must mean a few people bc most didn't agree with Gettleman

Yes, because they can see the future abd should have known he was going to get hurt.

The poor oline has nothing to do with this incident alone. Everyone knew back in February how poor our line was and we did nothing. We watched the good tackles go away in free agency. Now our QB is getting hit and our RBs are getting hurt because of it.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      Every team does it's homework. More so than any fan.  Brooks, had he not been injured, would have been a first round talent.  I have zero problems with the team (Dan Morgan and company) drafting Brooks in the 2nd.  He is a fantastic talent.  As far as risk, this is the NFL.  Any and every player is exposed to the same brutality that the NFL is.  Despite Brooks latest setback, it doesn't cost the team much.  Our running back room is stacked.  Could they have drafted someone else? Sure. No promise that someone else would have made an impact last year.  Or this year.   When it's your job to do what Dan does, I pray you get it all right. Lord knows that there isn't a single GM that gets it all right.

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.
