Official Carolina Panthers at Tennessee Titans Gameday Thread


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Welcome to your Carolina Panthers at Tennessee Titans gameday thread. Please use this thread for general observations about the game. 

 

  • Cam Newton will not plays. 
  • First string players typically play a full quarter or about three series. 
  • Keep an eye on Austin Duke and Kaelin Clay later in the game. Both fighting for a roster spot. 
  • Tennessee Mom still wants Cam's :Eggplant_Emoji_Icon_42x42:, and feels guilty about it. 

 

Please do not create reactionary threads. Keep it nice and tidy in here. If you have a legitimate topic to discuss about the game that deserves its own thread by all means do it. 

 

Love,

 

Management.

You're the one stating we should keep an eye out for both.  Correct?  When neither one will make the team.  So, in essence, can you tell us why we should look out for players destined for the Practice Squad (if that)?

Because today's Damiere Byrd was also once a practice squad guy. Same with Russell Shepard who will be starting this year.

 Some of us like to keep up with such things.

Meh, keeping up with Practice Squad players that will never be on a final NFL roster.  That's like keeping up with Walk-Ons on a College Football team.  You know they're on the team, but know they'll never get any PT (unless your CFB team is complete trash).  It's better to look for battles that will impact the immediate roster, than watch for a bunch of players that won't see the field this season (unless a ton of injury attrition happens).

    • Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.
    • I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.  
    • I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
