I rather see what Boston is about

Me to.  First, Lester isn't going to be signed to take over at nickel, because he's not a CB.  Second, He has enough problems playing safety.  If you bring him in, you just have a less knowledgeable Harper.  They're basically of the same mold.  People harp on Boston's Senior year being bad, but forget he was injured the whole season with that hernia.  He opted not to have surgery so he wouldn't completely fall out of the draft, and had it taken care of later.  I think Boston's going to be pretty good.

If he's comfortable in the defense, I wouldn't mind it.  At least he has the speed to potentially recover.  Harper is taking a lot bad reads and bad angles out there and he's so slow that one misstep takes him completely out of the play.  Lester is younger, but I'm not sure he's any faster.

 

I mean, what's the worst that could happen?  We've given up 30+ in four straight games.  What we're doing right now obviously isn't working.

 

Really hoping Bene gets back soon.  Godfrey at nickel is absolutely painful.  Dalton simply looked for whoever he was attempting to cover on 3rd down in the 1st half and was making a living off of abusing Godfrey, which honestly wasn't too difficult.

I don't understand bringing in Dockery and not using him. Godfrey was God awful but still played the entire game. There are some serviceable FA that could play nickel for us. At least bring in some speed. Godfrey is slow as dirt now. He doesn't look confident on that Achilles.

Yeah, I really didn't understand why we stuck with Godfrey.  He was getting absolutely abused out there.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
