It's a must-end for Panthers' preseason


Rod Butsecks

Recommended Posts

(By Scott Fowler, [email protected]) There is a limit on the number of times a team can use ldquo;It's only an exhibitionrdquo; as an excuse. The Carolina Panthers reached that limit late in the first quarter in Thursday night's 21-10 home exhibition loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, which closed an inglorious and winless preseason.p/By that time, the Panthers had already allowed an 80-yard punt return straight up the middle and a 10-yard touchdown run by a third-string Pittsburgh running back in which the guy bounced off or ran through half the Panthers defense.

    • it helps that Bryce and Tmac worked out a bit this off-season before the draft and are familiar with each other's game from way back.  Sure Bryce put in a good word for him to the coaching crew ahead of time That california connection goin' work, I hope
    • Sign but make it mostly incentive driven contract
    • My biggest problem is I think the players he likes don't really work in the modern NFL.  You mentioned the wr room being a lot better, is it?  It has the potential to be.   Last year when we traded up to get Legette, they said they traded up to take him specifically because he was a true X receiver.   Now this year they take TMac because they say he is and that XL was out of posisition last year.  Im not sold on Tmac yet just like I wasn't sold on XL last year.  If TMac isn't a lot better than last XL was last season then that's back to back first rounders in one position that would still need a huge amount of work.  Hopefully Tmac is what everyone seems to think he will be, I'm just not so sure, but them declaring XL was a true X receiver after the draft last year and what they're saying now should at least give you pause about their receivers evaluation because it means they definitely made a mistake one way or another.
