Panthers | Goodson expected to return kickoffs Week 1

Mon, 07 Sep 2009 18:37:30 -0700

The Associated Press reports Carolina Panthers RB Mike Goodson is expected to return kickoffs for the team's Week 1 game.

Woops meant kickoffs. My bad.

He did it all preseason. Probably will have Rosario back with him to keep him in check and block. The concern is PR duty....but since they have jobs maybe they won't be as concerned of making plays and will fair catch when appropriate.

i am interested in seeing how the removal of the "wedge" will have an effect on the experienced NFL returners. I almost wonder if the change will be significant enough that the younger guys who are not used to this will make the adjustment quicker and therefore be more productive in the return game.

it seems like it will make the return guys more open to injury, but will make them rely on thier speed and quickness to make lanes and get upfield. to me, someone like mark jones will suffer greatly from this new rule, and i am glad he isnt coming back right away until we can see how all this plays out. hopefully a key player like goodson wont get injured more easily due to the change. if we can get our guys to catch the ball, i think we have some good talent.

    • Nina King continues to run circles around the rest of college basketball. She's been ahead of the curve on everything, and is the biggest reason for Duke's success post-K IMO. I think Scheyer is great at many things, but Duke went into the NIL era 100% ready whereas everyone else was playing catchup. 
    • Happy they won convincingly instead of letting them hang around. Montreal is cooked, and rather than play hockey, they've decided to take some really cheap shots at guys. I get a player may feel a need to set the tone, and I understand how that works. But to 2-hand cross check someone intentionally in the face, to have a guy down on the ice and put his head into the ice with a stick, to just start punching anyone who gets within arm's reach- that's not setting the tone. That is nothing short of playing dirty.  That said, the Canes.... oh boy. They could have run this score to 6-0 with half a power play. It's embarrassing how bad the PP is. If the Canes go to the Cup finals against a team who scores at least 1 goal per game on the PP, they'll lose the close games because of the lack of results on the PP. 
    • Because he knows they are winning the cup. And I fully support his decision.
