Friday's Practice Tweets and Injury Report


Bartin

Recommended Posts

The practice horn blows and there's no sign of Philly Brown, who suffered a shoulder stinger yesterday

No helmet for Panthers CB Charles Tillman, who missed Thursday's practice with a sore knee. Could mean a lot more work for Bene' Benwikere on Sunday as an every down corner.

 

You will not see LG Andrew Norwell (hamstring) for the Panthers again this week

Looking like both Tillman and Philly will be out on Sunday. Bene will likely play outside full time with Colin Jones taking over his role as slot CB. I would expect Funchess will see a greatly increased workload with Philly out and Norwood might even make an appearance.

Media portion of practice over. No P.Brown, C.Tillman on bike. A.Norwell, who won't play this weekend, getting in full sprints.

 

Good news on Norwell. Sounds like he will be good to go next week and Tillman being on a bike is promising and gives him a decent chance of playing Sunday whereas missing Thursday and Friday practices would almost definitely have him out.

Just now, Cracka McNasty said:

Probably going to be Bersin.

Bersin is more of the backup to the slot position which is Cotchery and Norwood is the outside guy. If Philly is out then I'd expect both Bersin and Norwood to be active with Norwood as the backup to Ginn and Funchess on the outside.

Devin Funchess will get the start if Philly doesn't play

 

Bene' Benwikere would start for Tillman at CB, Colin Jones would be nickel.

 

RR gives a “we’ll see” when asked if Bersin and Norwood will both be active. Bené would start for Tillman. CJones at nickel.

2 minutes ago, Mr. Scot said:

People have suggested that Benwikere isn't doing well as a nickel this season. Some think he'd be better on the outside.

Looks like we might get to test that theory.

I'm one of those people and I'm definitely interested to see how he does on the outside if he gets the full game there likely covering Garcon with Norman on Desean Jackson.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
