Carted off in Camp v. Carted off in a game


Ricky Spanish

Recommended Posts

We have this discussion every year guys, looks like everyone needs a reminder with Hill and Star over the past few days.

Being Carted off at camp is completely different than being carted off the field during a game. They will cart anyone off the field at camp because it's a bit of a trek to get things checked out. Just because a guy is carted off doesn't mean he's horribly injured. This is not exclusive to the Panthers. Every Team uses it excessively this time of year to get guys out of the heat and to the medical areas. 

There's no reason to freak out if you see a guy riding on a cart unless he looks dejected and hanging his head in disgust.

A lot of players who have no injuries are carted off. Norman has been, Peanut, TD often, Cam sometimes. I bet every single one of the 90 guys has been "carted off" at some point in camp, or will be before it's over.

Cracka, I got your point and even Ron intimated it was precautionary as Dr Anderson was there on the ground. They're gonna check it out.

On the other hand, he's arguably the biggest piece to our puzzle up front. People have a right to panic. If this is serious it will have a significant impact as far as TD, Luke, and Shaqs ability to shoot gaps all season long. 

 

We we can't afford to lose Star, we really can't. Don't you remember what our D-Line looked like when we lost ma'ake Keomuatu?

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
