HELPED

Damiere Byrd - 3 catches for 36 yards and should have had a TD but DA missed him.

Marcus Lucas - big target that had 3 grabs for 39 yards.

Jeremy Cash - solid on special teams and contributed 5 tackles on D with one for loss.

 

HURT

Daryl Worley - Had 5 tackles but was picked on often. He will learn and get better.

Scott Simonson - Got the start but could not get open and did next to nothing.

Helped:

Bene Benwikere

Damiere Byrd

Kevin Norwood

David Mayo

James Bradberry

Eric Crume

2nd string Oline - Hawkins?  I wasn't watching them too closely, but they seemed better this week.  Need to go back and watch more closely to see who did well...

Fozzy - nice shiftiness

Delaire on pass rush

Robert Lester

 

 

Hurt:

Sandland (especially thinking of the one play when he was pushed back into our backfield)

Simonson?  He's still clearly #3 on depth chart, nothing really changed, but was hoping to see him flash.

Garrett?  Was he even ever on the field?

Delaire re: Run blocking

 

Hard for me to really say too much about CAP / Wegher.  I wonder if we're deliberately not playing Wegher with the 1s so as to be able to safely stash him on the PS.  CAP had a couple of nice runs.  I'm not too worried about him.

That's right, forgot about Garrett. Apparently so did our coaching staff

I think like the OP, you have to put Lucas in the conversation of helping himself. The other TEs did next to nothing. 

Garrett was a forgotten man. If they can send Brandon Boykins packing last year, then Garrett can definitely be sent on his way this year. For that matter, Todman last year was arguably better than a few of the backs so far this year, so that's something to think about.  

Sometimes circumstances hurt you more than you hurt yourself.

I've seen this name a couple of times but, who the fug is Eric Crume? Ive never seen him mentioned in tc practice tweets and never seen him make a play on the field. 

Yeah he's an interesting guy. It's going to come down to 330lbs Crume , Robert Thomas and Kyle Love for the 5th DT spot.

And that's IF we choose to have 5DT's on our roster.

He's a DT we signed to a futures contract in Jan.

He's nearly never been mentioned in practice write ups, but he's made some very nice plays last week and this week in terms of pressure.

TEs - Besides Lucas, where were the young guys? Simonson was bad, but Sandland and Deaver don't seem to have gotten any targets at all. Why?

Sandland was blocking a lot of plays.  We seemed to be using him in a FB-esque role today.

Yup, we have ridiculous depth at DT, LB and WR.  Who we keep as a 5th DT (IF we do, as you said) is going to be a very hard choice.

I'm guessing you meant McClain?

Oops!!  I don't even have the excuse of being in Africa and writing that at 3 or 4 in the morning with the time zone difference.  I'm here in CLT until the end of the month.

I think I was thinking of DT Robert Thomas, but yes, McClain has been solid as well

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
