Armah or Barnage?

Even before the season I was seriously doubting that Olsen would get 1000 yds. again this year, but there's no doubt we're hurting without him. Barnidge keeps getting workouts but I never hear anything about any offers. Hard to believe he's total crap all of a sudden so maybe he's making it clear he won't come cheap.

With a team that relies on tight end play like us, bringing Barnidge in should be a TOP priority right now.  TOP.    Also the additional blocking because, we're going to need it.  

If you want this defense to stay fresh & finish off game  then  TE  like Barnidge is necessary.

Panthers also need to use Byrd & Samuel in the deep routes and stretch defenses out

Or we could just use the WR's more. KB and Funchess both proved that they can get open and make clutch catches yesterday.

You're not going to replace Olsen's role with any free agent. It's going to have to be with multiple players and KB, Funchess and Dickson looks like the most likely committee.

I'd be game with Armah assuming he learned his new position enough.

I'm not sure how many times it needs to be said:

Armah does not play tight end and our offensive coordinator doesn't even know what a pass catching H-back is. 

Ed Dickson has lined up as a pass catching H-Back fairly often this season sooo

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
