Ideally I'd be happy to have CAP active.

Question is whom do you DEACTIVATE, especially if all our players, including Marlowe, are healthy?

It is really tough to have to sit 7 healthy players when you know that several of them could really contribute.

Inactives last week were:

We played last week with only 3 safeties.  Not ideal.  Delaire stank up the joint, would like to see if Edwards can play... 

It's a good problem to have just about everyone on the team fully healthy, but at a time like this, the 46 player active limit really sucks.

I'm sure Edwards will have his shot, once he's more up to speed with the defense.  He hasn't ever really played much though...

Player limit sucks, but it's there for a pretty good reason.  Coaches just have to make the best decisions they can.

Pardon my ignorance becuase I've never thought about it before, but what exactly is that good reason. Off the top of my head I can't thing of any good reason to carry 53 guys but not be able to utilize a set number of them every week. What's the point?

Good explanation here:  http://www.panthers.com/news/ask-bryan/article-2/Ask-Bryan-Picking-the-inactives/04093768-aac5-46ea-bfeb-34db24e3f153

So why are teams allowed to have just 46 of their 53 players active for games? In short, it's a move aimed at maintaining competitive balance. Both teams were pretty healthy for the season opener, but as the attrition natural to the game of football takes full effect, just about every team will have players too injured to play in a given week but not so injured that they should be put on injured reserve.

So, let's say one team has six injured players, while their opponent has just one. With the inactives system, both teams would have 46 healthy players in action, as opposed to one team having five more healthy players than the opposition. That type of discrepancy could make a significant difference in the game's outcome, and that's what the league wants to avoid.

BBR speculates T. Williams or Cash goes inactive, but for Marlowe, not CAP. Add him and it may be Williams AND Cash.

Hopefully he's picked up more after having a long week. If so, I wouldn't mind him taking DeLaire's spot. He couldn't be much worse. 

As to the post's topic , I would love to see CAP get a shot. Make them load the box like they did on the Rams and leave our big WR's out there 1 on 1, or double our receivers and we can run it down their throats. Inactivate T. Williams, Simonson, or Cash if need be.

      Xavier Legette fuging sucks

      By jb2288 · Posted

      I think he could benefit from not starting and getting 14-18 snaps a game both run and pass. His only goal on those snaps should be max effort and attention to detail. That’s your role until you get it figured out and can be trusted.    I can understand not rushing Jimmy out there but if XL isn’t even going to give effort blocking his ass needs to sit. Tmac and Hunter starting with JHJ seeing what he can do until Coker is back. Bring in an extra TE and feed Chubba. We can be a better team without him at this moment in time.

      Bryce Young Is Terrible

      I think it suck’s all together. Because we all wanted it for Bryce. And I don’t think any more so than he did for himself at all. But when you watch this Sunday night game with Ravens and Bills. It’s clear, guys like Lamar and Josh Allen are just in a different stratosphere. What we all thought would be Bryce isn’t it. Even old heads like Rodger’s still out here dicing up defenses, and it just seems like the game is too big for Bryce. Going from a guy like Cam, you can just see that big men win football games. And if you small you better be quick af.    hopefully he can turn it around, I mean quick too. I’ll be watching in Arizona, but I won’t be expecting much that’s for sure.
