Dude played 77 snaps and could only get open on two of them and then they released him lol. 

He was their 4th round pick last year...   I mean, damn...   We gave Kugbila more time. 

He hasn't worked with Ricky "WR Whisperer" Proehl yet.

 

Do remember Ricky Proehl was high on Kevin Norwood last year. #Panthers could’ve used 7th-round pick on him if they had it.

Why int he world would we trade for somebody they were about to cut? Were we worried we might. Ot be able land this premiere talent in free agency?

Unlikely a wideout, only a year after being a fourth round pick, falls to 25 in waivers. Likely a late conditional pick based on whether he makes the roster. Think Barner.

what people don't realize is he was a panthers player all along sent under cover to the seahawks to spy on them. He played like butt on purpose and Carolina is bringing him back for nothing and now we have had someone on the inside so we will beat them this year. Also he is secretly a superstar WR

This wasn't a trade. He was released according to the Seattle Times. There was speculation in the media before training camp that Norwood might be the odd man out. The Hawks added quite a few new guys at WR.

Seahawks trade Kevin Norwood to Carolina after initially were going to cut him.

Meh.  

Sounds like a decent dude with good hands, if he can get open.  Maybe Proehl can turn him into a #3. 

 

Yay. 

I look at these forums and I don't understand the Proehl stuff.  He hasn't done much.  KB is what he was in college, a freak that has drops often.  Brown can't catch.  Bersin isn't anything special.   Ginn is just a speedster with average hands, and always has been.  Cotchery took a nose dive when he came here.   We prop this guy up like we have a GB caliber receiving core but we're bottom 5 in the league and have been forever with this team.   I'm just trying to be realistic, I haven't really seen anyone develop enough to crown him the best receiving coach ever.

I'll stay the f in here. Check twitter and welcome to the year 2015

I don't trust twitter.  Too many crazies.  Can't trust all that noise.  Huddle is my rock. Huddle always come through eventually, to some degree, with something that resembles reality-ish with breaking news....

nevermind, you probably right.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
