  • Several players made a splash during the initial red zone period. Running back Fozzy Whittakericon-article-link.gif continues to be in the middle of the action, stymied on a short route by Davis before coming back for a touchdown reception from Anderson over the middle. Whittaker, Samuel and fullback Darrel Youngicon-article-link.gif caught TD tosses over the middle near the goal line, but the defense controlled action outside of that window. Cornerback James Bradberryicon-article-link.gif broke up Anderson's last shot in the first red zone period, and on the next play, cornerback Captain Munnerlynicon-article-link.gif broke up Joe Webbicon-article-link.gif's first attempt. Recently signed quarterback Garrett Gilberticon-article-link.gif got just one snap in the period but made the most of it, hooking up with fullback Alex Armahicon-article-link.gif in the flat. Armah looked fully capable of finishing it off if live contact were allowed.

Woo Hoo! Armah made a play!

Anyone have any idea how Zeek Bigger has been doing?  He signed a 3 year deal yesterday.  (Panthers hold the option on all 3 years... ha)  Hoping for PS at minimum.

As an ECU alum, I'm also curious

I think PS is perhaps what we should potentially expect with the logjam we have at the LB position

Sure would be nice to see Armah be a "project" that actually works out for us

He doesn't look like he'd be very much fun to tackle or have coming full steam ahead at you...

I totally agree.  The only glimmer of hope I see was with Klein leaving.  I think Zeek could beat out Mayo, if given a fair shot.

I believe he'll make the team due simply to the fact that he can play ST. His FB play would be an added bonus.

Well since there's only one other viable FB on the roster,  (Darrel Young, who also scored in the red zone today) and that they used a valuable draft pick on him, I would say that's a pretty darn good guess.

I think somebody in the media asked RR about him yesterday. Go check it out at Panthers.com. There are a couple  pics of Biggers up too.

Agreed it's a good guess.  I'd normally agree that since he was a draft pick he'd make the 53, but was also wondering if the Panthers might be thinking they could stash him on the PS for a year to let him develop (since he hasn't played FB in a long time) with very little to no risk of another team stealing him away.  Basically just because I don't think many people know about the guy, much less have film to study of him.  TC will be intriguing as always.

      I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.

      I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years.

      He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
