DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart have yet to "break out" this season. It's coming like a freight train and we're standing on the tracks.

My thoughts exactly.

It's funny to read the opposing teams message board, for the most part they are scared of the Panthers... there is a whole thread devoted to how scared they are of playing the Panthers, LOL.

I'm not scared of the Skins, I'm scared of Jake and Fox.

Part of it is play calling, part of it is falling behind quickly and abandoning the run. Yet another part is that Fox likes to pull one of them as soon as they get in a groove. While I agree that you swap them out to save their legs, when one gets the hot hand, let him crush the defense. You have to admit, something just isn't grooving with the O-line this year. Maybe we miss our backups that are now starting for other teams?

I know it's the pro level and this may not be the case, but I know the o-linemen in my college didn't try as hard when they felt the play calling was garbage. When the hogs are feeling the run game, don't stop it, or else you'll get half assed a lot.

Exactly - they are scared of the Panthers AND we are scared of the Panthers. Harmony and Unity.

Until we get our act together and play like we are capable of, I am scared of us, too.

    • I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.  
    • Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up. 
    • I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
