Will Wegher get any time with the ones?

Wegher played crappy last night and it wasn't all the lines fault. He slipped and fell more than once with little or no contact. Sure the pass in the flats was thrown slightly behind him but he got his hands on it and bobbled it 3 times before it dribbled out of bounds. How many times did he actually run through a tackle and not go down at first contact. Sure the line did him no favors but he didn't do himself any favors either. Honestly I doubt he earned any time with the 1s.

When first contact is behind the line of scrimmage not much anyone could do not named Barry Sanders. O line played like crap last night! I think both CAP and Weg will get a shot with the ones next preseason game. Both will get a shot to show what they can do for us or another team.

The way Wegher played last night was almost certainly an indictment on the offensive line.

Does anyone have a give of the guard getting absolutely mauled on that blitz by the Ravens? That had to be the worst i've seen since watching Nate Chandler getting literally picked up and carried backwards against the Eagles two seasons ago.

No, he had 1 slip. The rest was awful line play. Fight me in real lyfe.

Stewart isn't going to be around forever, so knowing whether Cap or Wegner can be adequate successors is something we should figure out. They should both get enough looks with the first unit because if neither can produce in the best of conditions, then the answer for our next running back is definitely not on this roster. I'm not trying to discount Fozzy, btw, but I see him more as backup material with limited upside.

Will Wegher get any time in with an actual nfl caliber offensive line, or nah?

Could the plan be to keep him out if it and out of the national spotlight, increasing the likelihood of a practice squad landing?

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.

      Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
