I've said it a million times, we have absolutely no speed on offense. Couldn't he help out playing a catching RB on a play or two, or taking an end around handoff, just to try to open something up?

 

Why do people think you can just throw any fast receiver at RB and it will work?

 

Stephen Hill isn't good enough to the point where he is worth wasting a roster spot just for one reverse play.

 

And while Stephen Hill runs a fast 40 time, he does not play up to that speed on the field.  Look no further than Cordarrelle Patterson (4.42).  Stephen Hill ran a faster 40 at 4.36 but when you watch both of them play, Patterson SMOKES Hill on the field.

Stephen Hill would not add speed to this offense because he does not play up to his speed on the field because he has a poor understanding of the game.  In all likelihood, he is nothing more than a Troy Williamson and will be out of the league soon.

Man I wanted Patterson bad from that draft. Glad we got star but damn. The dude is a straight up beast.

Why do people here seem to be under the impression that this guy has some kind of learning deficiency?

He contributed as a young player on a terrible Jets offense. He hasnt been brought up because we have other talent at the position on the roster.

Not because he's some JUCO UDFA with measurables from Spain trying to get a grasp on just what shape the football in question actually is.

"Gee Coach Ricky, are you SURE it's not supposed to be spherical?"

He's crazy athletic, but is a nice returner only. Really been a bad receiver so far. A bigger, poor man Percy Harvin. Only thing he's been able to do offensively is running off sweep.

The NFL is changing, but gah I hate seeing these hybrid WR/RB. They bring a lot to special team, but are so raw playing wide receiver.

It's why I'm not on the Ty Montgomery wagon. We need to give Cam legitimate WRs, not these fancy/flashy guy. KB alone already making Cam look a lot better.

I just had some wishful thinking, hoping some kind of spark of any kind on offense could help.

Man i wanted Strong to continue to fly under the radar so we could have a chance at him but it looks like that isnt gonna happen anymore. He will probably go really high now.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
