I know it has only been a couple of days, and I imagine he is running against the third team, but how is Obie looking so far? Do you have an insight as to what capacity the Panthers plan to use our new RB going forward?

 

 I imagine as soon as the vets are ready, the guillotine is looming for Obie, Reaves or Whitaker depending upon production. Obie being 28, I'd assume he is possibly in a last hired, first fired type of role.

I believe this is his first practice with the team today outside of the workout he had last week. Was checking his IG out a couple of days ago and the comment's from Brown's fans were positive and they hated to see him go. I think he is a downhill runner with some lateral agility. Cleveland used him as a pass catcher out of the backfield plenty last season. Here's to hoping this pick up pays off, which depends on the O line....fuggg.

But in all seriousness... Does he penatrate holes with power or is he dancing around?

We need a North-South kind of a runner... who can pick up short yardage.

I've heard he performs well coming in the backfield and is not afraid of hard contact.

      Seahawks or Rams

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      Let's say we take care of business against the Bucs and/or the Falcons take care of the Saints and we lock that 4th seed for the playoffs. Who do we root for this Sunday in the NFC West matchup with Seahawks at San Francisco winner takes the NFC West division. A Seahawks win would mean we face the Rams at home or with a 49ers win we host the Seahawks again.  Which opponent would most prefer? In the earlier Rams game we won primary due to turnovers specifically Mike Jackson pick-6 in combination with a good running game with Chuba and Rico whereas we kept the Rams offense off the field and Bryce was able to connect on two big 4th down throws for touchdowns. However when the Rams offense was on the field they pretty much got whatever they wanted, Williams and Corum gashed us in the run game, and we had no answer for Devonte Adams. Granted whe were missing some pieces on defense with Horn and Moehrig. Against Seattle our defense held it's own for the most part, it was our offense and turnovers which aided in the Panthers loss.  Seattle was the most stingy, best tackling defense the Panthers have played all season, and when we turned Darnold over we didn't do much with it.  The offense had no answers for what the defense was throwing at them and apparently were caught off guard by the amount of man coverage the Seahawks played.  With all that who do you think would be the better matchup the 2nd time around? I trust Stafford far more than I do Darnold, both running games are on par with each other, of the defenses Seattle has the dominant unit.  I personally prefer Seattle again, that would mark their 3rd consecutive road game, we've just played them, so we know exactly what to expect, and I feel Caneles should be able to come up with a better scheme to counteract what the Seahawks defense was doing, and we may be able to trip Darnold up, I don't want to try and win another shootout against the Rams.

      I remember watching him at bama and thinking he throws a lot of wobbly non spiral balls that have very little velocity. Knew it would be a real problem in the NFL and it is.

      His wife makes great meatballs though. To be fair, he didn't hire himself here. He dazzled and bamboozled them with what they wanted to hear. He was going to be an innovative, program-builder, culture-installing football genius. They ate it up like those fabulous meatballs.
