LT Matt Kalil Showing Up Addison While Remmers Is Being A Turnstile in Minnesota

I've been a Matt Kalil skeptic for quite some time. His tape from the past showed lack of explosiveness and finding himself smashed on more than one occasion.

However, looks like he's finally turning it around in training camp. Watch him handle Addison nicely and keep him from doing anything on this rep.

A good sign that maybe that hip surgery is fixing in and allowing him to finally get the hang of some things. Hope this will continue to be a trend and the norm.

Meanwhile, Mike Remmers is doing what he does best in Minnesota: being a turnstile.

Nothing new. We get Matt Kalil who just needed a little hip surgery to get back to form. They get Remmers and realize he's a scrub no matter what they do.

Works out quite well.

So didn't Igo just post a thread a day or so ago stating his concerns with Kalil because Addison was owning him in camp? I'm confused.

Without pads, the D-line generally has an advantage. With Kalil being fine the first day with pads, I think that's something to look forward to.

Yep, the overreactions to Kalil struggling on the first day minus pads were greatly exaggerated.

He's going to have some ups and downs throughout camp and it'll be quite humorous watching the Huddle's corresponding peaks and valleys. Super Bowlz!!!! Followed by, Oh noes!!! Back to 4-12!!! Time to look at the top OTs in next year's draft!

Remmers, and before him Nate Chandler, were two of the all time worst Panthers players at any position. 

lol I remember when we extended Chandler and most of the huddle was sucking Gettleman's dick.

A sports writer described Chandler's pass blocking style as "turning into a pillar of ash upon initial contact and disintegrating." He wasn't wrong.

I once described Remmers as looking like he was suffering from vertigo out of the field. I still think he has undiagnosed vertigo.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      By strato · Posted

      That can be a chicken or the egg scenario. Canales knows what the QB is good at and is not good at better than we do.  He would have reasons for not calling deep shots, if he is holding back. They could include protection concerns, as well as any Young related motivations.  I think there always the chance Bryce doesn’t see the man open down the field and it is just that simple, more than a confidence issue. Probably a mix of the two.

      Dan Morgan: Panthers will pickup BY’s 5th year.

      By woahfraze · Posted

      This is a partially bad take.  Willis is the only guy mentioned here that can reasonably be expected to perform at a level higher than Bryce.  Winston and Minshew is washed, and Howell was not good in Washington as a starter and didn’t field a single snap this past year. I swear the only reason people are obsessed over him is that he went to UNC.  You’re not going to have better success, or even potential for success with those guys as your QB as you would with Bryce. Now, if you want to argue this thing from a production per dollars perspective, that it’d be better to roll with one of them instead because we could allocate the savings elsewhere on the roster, that’d be a better argument IMO. I’d disagree with it; relying on a QB making less they $5MM/year that isn’t on a rookie contract is not a winning strategy.  But I could see the argument that it’s possibly a viable alternative to Bryce on a $25MM/year contract.    But no, none of those QBs are better than Bryce.

      Dan's first draft

      No team hits on every pick.  Every coach and GM will eventually get fired.   We are a better team and have greatly increased the talent on the roster. Bad GMs lead to losses.   I love the teams current setup in the front office and the process in how we look at talent and coaching.  Canales has often said we want to have a player developmental philosophy as a core tenant.  I love that combined with cutting edge analytics and good football knowledge and experience.
