If Cam had Romo's protection...

Virtually every championship caliber NFL team has one thing in common- a group of offensive linemen who have played alongside each other for more than one season. 

 

The Carolina Panthers enjoyed that level of success in 2003, 2005 and 2008. If you look at the O-lines from those seasons, they remained relatively intact over the 2003-2005 period and the 2008 team had been together for a season as well. Other than those seasons, the Panthers have constantly shuffled, rearranged or otherwise could not or would not build an O-line.

Trai Turner is a rookie with a promising future.  Amini is stronger and more athletic than Wharton.  Kalil is having a down year, but his pro bowl selections weren't a mistake, and he's in his prime years.

 

This year we got another piece of the puzzle in Turner.  Unfortunately, we had to go with Bell and Chandler as our bookends, and not only have they not worked out, our line has been inconsistent game after game due to injury.  The Cowboys line is good, but do you really think they would be as good as they have been had they missed the same number of games our has?

And yet romo takes one hit to the back and he misses a game or two

 

And yet no offensive line in the history of lines has ever had a QB not get hit. 

 

What's your point? That because Romo got popped, Dallas' line is not better than the Panthers, because if that's your point, please go see if you can find a brain transplant.

lol you always get this pissy when someone posts anything other than that which reaffirm's your opinion?

And no that wasn't my point. I'll let you figure it out, and if you can't, maybe get a brain transplant and try again.

If if and buts were candy and nuts then every day would be Christmas!!!

If a bull frog had wings he wouldn't bust his ass when he jumps!!1

Dang its always if we had this if we had that, well we don't, and I sure hope what we do have decides to play to what they could be. 

Another big IF is do they think enough of them selves to move to next level??? 

It all starts with the Vikings and IF they want it we will prevail, no matter I am a Panthers Fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm irrelevant. You're irrelevant. Everything I post is about the facts. The fact is no matter how good an OL is, the QB behind it will get hit every now and then.

 

To make that about me is just stupid.

      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.
