DeAngelo: Sprained Ankle, "week-to-week", doubtful vs CHI

This concerns me just as much for the passing game protection as it does for the running game.

 

We already didn't have much of a running game more due to the O line than anything... but with DWill out and some unknown in at RB, I fear for Cam because we'll have to pass more and will be relying on who knows who to pick up blitzes.

Fug it. Abandon the run till guys get healthy.

Only run to keep teams honest. Instead of running throw bubbles and and into the flats to get 3 or 4 yards.

Running the ball with pooty RBs and a pooty o line will have pooty results

 

 

 This is about the only shot the Panthers have.

 

 

Spread out the field, put Cam in shotgun and use the pass to set up draw plays.

 

 

Unfortunately I don't think Shula has any creativity to bring to the table.

as much as it would hurt the team salary cap wise, I think carolina should just cut either dwill or jstew or both.  Watching them collect pay checks to ride excercise bikes I'm sure pisses off many in that locker room that go out and leave it all on the field every day.  I'd send a msg to the team.  You want to be a panther, your ass better find a way to be on that field.

I hope we get a running back via freeagency, reaves cant cut it , we'll if shula would maybe give him some zones and stretches he can prob get some good yardage but running up the middle with a tiny runningback 20 times a game for 15 yards aint gunna win us games. Another thing howcome we kept running up the middle when we were loosing

essentially we've already abandoned the run... the line has no push no protection and they are beatdown nearly each play. that's why the backfield is hurt or hurting.

What's worse than having a ton of money tied up in two RBs?

 

Having both of those RBs be hurt

 

they are made of glass and its the same thing every year.  How much does the team and the fans have to endure before these two guys are sent packing.  Go collect checks some where else.  Igo is around that locker room, I would love to see if he has any insight on how the rest of the team feels about their 2 over payed fragile rb's.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
