Giants Injuries

Every year we suffer injuries and it seems to be an excuse for Fox every single year. This year we have lost Kemo, Leonard, Diggs, and Harris. All of those injuries are on defense. The injuries are set backs BUT look at the list of players that aren't playing for the Gmen on Sunday.

Justin Tuck

Hakeem Nicks

Aaron Ross

Kenny Phillips - IR

Domenik Hixon

Chris Canty

On that list are 2 of their best 3 DL, their best receiver (slim pickens anyway), their best CB, and a safety that would get a ton of playing time. Yet I GUARANTEE YOU that they are going to go into TB and win. Not to mention they went into Dallas without a lot of those players and knocked them off.

I'm sick of injuries and being "banged up" being an excuse for John Fox. He needs to win this game if he wants a chance to save his job IMO because there is no way with our schedule that we are going to go 11-2 through our last 13 games.

Panthers lack depth, and a little bit of heart, something which my Vikings have plenty of. Not going to win this season with Jake Delhomme, you guys should trade for Rosenfels or Jackson.

Maybe you haven't been keeping up so I'll drop some knowledge on your head..... We have Jay Feely standing really close John Fox during the game. Not to mention he's pretty amped up and rearing to go if he ever needed to take over this team so don't worry your viking horned head one bit about our QB situation - Foxy's got us sitting in the old catbird seat as far that goes.

Does that even sound believable?

Guess you didn't read my "no more injury excuses" thread did ya? Oh well, I totally agree with you and look at last year, that lost Osi and the defense was still good. Imagine if we lost Peppers.

I'm always amazed on how well you all have the landscape of the NFL figured out by week 2.

I totally agree with you that 2 out of 16 games have only been played, so the sit back and wait approach is the best. But I find it hard to believe you feel very confident we'll redirect the ship in a manner that takes us deep into the playoffs after all the years we've had to watch Fox.

lol the Giants were banged up and all and beat the poo out of the Bucs, just steamrolled them.

now I know TB sucks ass but holding any NFL team under 100 yards of total offense and allowing no points is an accomplishment, especially for a team that's missing some guys, among them a guy who just had a career day against Romo the week before.

i guess it pays to have a standard of which is held up no matter what. Injuries or no injuries, people still expect you to win up here in Yankeeland.

      Dan Morgan on Rich Eisen show

      By Basbear · Posted

      I'll toss my 2 pennies(rip) into this. I was not a fan of the Dan hire, I'd say 80against/20meh. The right hand stuff and being a part of what I viewed as the sorriest panther team in history...... The deal is some of the first moves he did saved NOTHING in cap space. He waived Bozeman, Vonn Bell, and Hurst.....That to me doesn't feel like Firererererere was listening to Dan to a high degree. Dan didn't have a 1st rounder which was 1st overall due to the supreme suckage. He didn't have 2nd rounder this past year which was a early pick right where the talent of the 2025 was. Plus the cap was not in the best shape.... The QB deal was in deep water as well. If you factor this extreme mess and analyze the current OL, DL, WR, and RB groups..... I have. Use your normal realistic cues. Even without playing the first game of this season, you must see improvement, right?? He simply could not fix all the problems, but the problems he choose to tackle... He did so like it was the 2003 Superbowl all over again. Factor in depth and age, those groups check the difficult boxes. Most of the players are young, locked in contracts, and there *should* be depth behind the starters. He's not going to bat 1.000, his mistakes have been pointed out numerous times. IMO, he does need some props for what I feel he's done right. Trade wise he's been killing the value side- extra future 2nd, starter level CB that's 28 year old for 240 picked LB that's bounced around the league, and moved up without giving the classic herniay future picks to land two edges whom are only behind QBs on the most valued chart. He also got a early 2nd and 2 5ths for a 8 sack-a-year edge that got nearly 30 mill per.  Sure its got to play out and positive results are needed. Still if you know NFL and been watching since the herniay&gettlegut eras, you got to feel the process is on the up and up. Im not talking in typical off-season hopuim fluff either.... It's not over by any means either(please give him until the 2026 season end), maybe this is a real foundation in the making, us Panthers don't even know what that is...... This could be the first real long lasting winner than us fans have never had in 30 years and we are witnessing it....

      Canales Addresses CB position

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I feel like we have some depth; we just need that proven nickel. Mike Jackson is a decent #2, but ideally we'd have a proven veteran in the slot. Smith-Wade might be able to fill that role, but he's far from a sure thing.

      2025 QB Draft Class

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Todd mcshay is doing a deep dive each week on the top propects.  Although he likes manning as a top guy he doesnt think he is coming out but he absolutey raves about Cade, Sellers and Garrett n.   Cade is the jack of all trades, does everything kindof well, Garrett is the big game hunter that has pin point accuracy, and sellers is the wildcard, the tools and arm is simply off the chart.  So adding in Manning and allar this class has unreal potential
