Wegher making something out of nothing.

In the 4th quarter we got to witness Brandon Wegher do what he has done his entire time as a Carolina Panthers, namely make something out of nothing. It looks like the play was designed for Wegher to follow Sandland up the gut, but was shut down right away by Titans 41. Sandland ran right by him, Wegher would have been tackled for a loss.

As soon as Wegher touches the ball, no less than 4 defenders are in his face.

The result? Wegher cuts it to the outside for a first down and then some. 

I still cannot fathom why we still have not seen him with the Panthers starting offensive line in preseason.

Limiting his opportunities to shine so as to safely stash him on the PS as depth in case of injuries?

Is it safe to say they're going to stash him on the PS again? I believe he would have gotten earlier playing time if the plan was for him to make the team. 

He was on the regular roster last year, not the PS. 

Seems like if this is the case, the Panthers are doing themselves a disservice.

But the question is whether he's safe on the PS. They thought enough of him to put him on the roster as a rookie. Unless they feel like they can rob a RB spot for some other position, I see the same RB's making it this year.

I do think he deserves to get some time with the 1st team O. It's not like they don't know what they've got with Stewart, Tolbert, and Fozzy. Even CAP seems like a vet compared to poor Wegher.

Wegher hasn't gotten work with the 1st or 2nd team because  Fozzy Whittaker is in his way not sure why he can't block or run only pass catch & CAP was drafted in but isn't doing much either 

Cap looks like he has more burst through the hole (or what is supposed to be a hole). He gets "skinny" really really well.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
