Psssssssssssst... There is a Panthers game this week...

Panthers game Thursday night! Yes, it is only preseason. But I know for a fact that most of you would have gnawed off your right arm for a chance to watch a preseason game during the first week in July. 

That said... expectations for the game? How many series will the first string play? 

Are you hoping for a heavy dose of CAP and Wegher? Rivera has said he only wants Stewart to "break a sweat". Those two young guys may see a lot of action.

I'll be surprised if the starters play for more than 2 series. I'm gonna be watching Butler mostly. I want to see him get as many reps as he can handle. 

Sounds right. 

 

Although last year didn't they keep the first string offense in until they had a decent series? Seems like it.

Yeah, I think you may be right. Hopefully, they will drive down and score on the first possession and send in the back ups this time.

Yes it's preseason, but I am stoked!

I see the first stringers only playing about 3 series.  Cap might play the entire first half, followed by Wegher playing most of the second.  Fozzy will get very limited reps to give those guys a breather.

i am most excited to see guys like Cash, Sandland, Simonson, Byrd, and Hill.  Also hope to see flashes out of the new secondary as well as Delaire, Miley, etc.. Either way, I'm excited that Panthers football is back!!!

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
