Ron's press conference today

[MVPccaffrey]

I'd rather just keep Peanut on ice until the playoffs unless they are 100% sure there's no elevated risk of reinjury

Panthers dropped the ball on this bad weather practice situation. Heads need to roll imo. Too much on the line. 

[CarolinaSunday]

It really makes me nervous having our guys slipping around in the wet field for practice. I don't understand not having a contingency plan. 

[WesleyM]

You guys realize the entire first half of our season was full speed games in the rain right? I am thinking they will probably be ok for 1 practice in the rain

The Panthers really need an indoor practice facility. 

Seriously. All this damn money in the franchise, that needs to happen in the offseason.

I hope we arent bringing tillman back too fast- would really like him for the playoffs.

I think the logic they are using is poo or get off the pot. 

Either you play him and he can play and that's great, or you play him and he can't and you move on. I don't think they want to be in the playoffs and still not know his status from week to week honestly.

The goal should be to ensure quality practice situations and leave the chance of injuries to the game.. 

 

Can they get through 1 practice?   Maybe, possibly..   But why take that chance.. Ever..  Especially now with what they are going through with injuries.

Pretty amazing to see PANTHERS as a running banner with the rest of the updates on ESPN to just say 13 and 0. 1pm Sunday at the Giants.  I really want this game to be  win. It should but giants are tough at home. Cam and the front 7 need a big game.  CJ here is that opportunity you tweeted about

[Darth Biscuit]

@bleys has a big living room and he's a 5 minute walk from the stadium, they should practice there.

That makes sense, and I am not doctor Anderson but it seems like another full week of rest wouldnt hurt either way.

[Toker Smurf]

From what I could find, as of 2012 we were one of only seven teams, that didn't have an indoor practice facility.

I also am not a doctor, but my understanding is that torn ligaments don't really heal themselves. When one is partially torn, it's a matter if whether the tear is causing symptomolgy that can be managed. So waiting another week would only just be about Tillman's comfort level, not whether the tear itself is any better.

But I could be wrong and welcome being corrected if so.

It hurts the preparation and the fluidity and cohesiveness of the whole defensive unit.

It's football. Stepping on to the field is always a risk of injury
