Who says? Don't see a source for your quote. I'm going by Gross, who should know, that he's not a speed rusher. As for getting back to full strength after pneumonia, have another 'who says?' At any rate, we'll find out what he's got left, and meanwhile I'd rather be optimistic about the new guy.

Source is my friend who's a Bears fan and knows his poo.

All I'm saying is maybe pump the brakes and temper expectations for a guy on his last legs.

I'd feel better if your source knew more about football than poo. lol

I don't really have high expectations, but I'm willing to bet some Monopoly money that he'll be worth the conditional 6th round pick we gave up for him.

Sorry, but I'd take Gross's opinion over any fan's, especially given Gross played against him.

We'll see... time will tell.

I'm guardedly optimistic.

He looks awful light, like 230 LBs.......

I do know Allen has, what I call SUPER tendon strength. Hope he can keep his speed and add a few lean LBs. He was rumored to be one of the strongest pound per pound DLmen around a few years ago. 

Panthers roster has him at 270 and 255 is the lightest I've seen him listed. Maybe he looks light due to his height.

Even if he isnt the player he once was, he still brings veteral leadership and a mean streak and has vluable knowledge to share with our younger linemen.

Win-win scenario. Also Ealy better shape up quick, because when CJ comes back, it is Ealy's spot that Jarred is going to be playing in.

win-win.

also when cj is back we can slide ealy inside for pass rushing downs like we did with hardy

      Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.

      I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.

      Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
