Panthers organization optimistic about Michael Oher

Joe Person of the Charlotte Observer reports the Panthers are "cautiously optimistic" about Michael Oher (concussion) continuing his career.

Oher has still not cleared the concussion protocol over six months removed from originally suffering the injury, but he has been working out at the stadium, suggesting he plans to make a comeback. If Oher is able to play, he will likely switch to right tackle with new signing Matt Kalil taking over on the left side.

I for one will be mighty ticked off if Oher starts at RT.

I don't care about his contract. I can foresee him being worse than Remmers on the right side. Daryl Williams needs to beat him out, and I 100% believe he's a far better starter than Remmers or Oher ever has been.

No way in hell can we roll the dice that this guy will be healthy enough to make it through the 2017 season at RT, let alone the foreseeable future.

Williams is the better RT especially in the Running game. Lets keep him as depth and swing tackle.

The only way I am buying this is if Michael hasn't taken the test in the last 6 months to see if he CAN pass.  I am not hearing that he is still failing or that he has failed multiple times.  I am just hearing he is still in the protocol.

 

Can someone clear this up for me?  Did he fail 6 months ago and hasn't taken a test to see if he has cleared or is he taking a test every week and continues to fail?

    • Woa there, Cinderella. Just because the shoe might fit doesn't mean that you need to put it on and run around inside the store. Wild how you open by saying "almost nobody wants to lose," and then immediately launch into why winning under Wilks was bad, why the culture didn't actually improve, and why the team should've leaned harder into failure to get better draft position... That's not "reality." It's just more performative fatalism where every sign of progress gets reframed as a mirage, and every win is a setback unless it comes with a Lombardi. These are Olympics-level mental gymnastics designed to justify a perspective where the Panthers only deserve credit after success but are poo on for trying to build towards it. You call it "ridiculous" to link this mindset with the endless Bryce hate (yours included, of course), but let's be honest: you have made that your brand as much as you like to claim that the Panthers have made being losing theirs. Every time progress gets mentioned, it's like clockwork... here comes the obligatory reminder that Bryce "isn't the guy" and that any progress he made didn't count because <insert moving goalpost here>. I have to tell you... that doesn't sound very "adult."
    • I feel all lower paced sports will struggle going forward w/ eyeballs.  I mean, America's pasttime might do a good job of ripping off the youth/parents with forever baseball and 58 little league world series each year you can play in......but MLB is a tough watch vs other sports.  Golf the same.  We are grooming humans to need constant action thanks to the magically internet.  Hard to watch a game where the "action" and excitement might be a moment once an hour. 
    • I will say this, this was very barstool like from a league that prides itself on being classical.
