Why was Kalil even active?

It seemed obvious he wasn’t going to play this week, especially when Rivera basically flat out said during the week he wouldn’t play. We had Larsen and Van Roten active. Would’ve been better off having Armah active over Kalil to provide a boost to our offense, even if just because of his energy, toughness and demeanor on the field.

    My guess? Matt practiced this week, he traveled with the team, it was probably a game time decision. It just didn't work out. Although, it could mean he is close to coming back. 

 

   As for Armageddon. Some one posted the fact that when he plays, we are only averaging 3.7 ypc. So I don't believe his contributions are a big a deal as what was thought. 

 

    Been trying to think of who I would have activated had Matt not been active. I just can't think of anyone. So I guess, to me. This isn't a big deal.

You would have thought that the coaching staff would have realized after the last 2 games, that having Armah in as FB is a big boost for our run game.  Kalil doesnt make much sense and neither does Fozzy.  

 

    Someone posted the stat earlier, that we are only averaging 3.7 ypc with Armah. So he seems to not be making the difference folks are wanting to credit him with.

 

    Would have to think they were hoping Matt would be able to go. He is obviously getting close.

other than the 40 yard break out by CMC, what did our RBs average yesterday?

    You can't just wipe out his 40 yarder. That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works. lol

 

    That said. I don't know. No a whole lot is my guess.

    I don't think it was much worse. Something like 3.1, or somewhere in there. Slightly over 3 anyway. He made a difference. Just not enough to call it an qualified success.

Before week 12 , the team is averaging 3.9 yards per carry . Both McCaffrey and Stew averaging below 4 ypc is bad. Cam and all of the end arounds we did skewing the ypc pretty bad too.

      2026 DRAFT

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I think a premier ILB in the Panther's tradition (Beason, Mills, Luke, Morgan) would be the best pick and the best way to improve this team. Here me out---those of you screaming for QB need to realistically approach the situation.  We are not drafting a QB early barring a late season Young meltdown.  Bryce is getting a fifth year--and he will start in 2026 and probably in 2027 barring some major meltdown.  This season has a ton of "fallen angels" or QBs with the skill set to develop into an NFL starter.   In the second or third round, you draft your possible qb of the future.  Scratch these probable first rounders: however, the next six or seven have tremendous potential, and if you draft a QB like the Packers do and develop him for 2-3 seasons, these QBs would give us an upgrade at #2 QB and 2 years to groom him in the event Bryce does not earn a huge second contract. About WR:  Coker is a solid #3 and Horn gives us a thrilling option on STs and in the slot.  He was a nice pick.  TMac needs a strong #2.  XL does not seem that interested in the job, and he seems a bit over his head in the NFL.  Yes, we could use a solid WR, but I am not sure a rookie.  I think we pinch some pennies and redo some OL contracts and make WR our biggest priority in free agency.  Draft a sleeper late. Tight End:  Do we have enough there?  I really like Mitchell, but I am not sure about Sanders and Tremble is who he is.  Do we have a threat?  I think Bryce loves his checkdowns and underneath routes--he's not had a Stud TE.  I want one.  (platonic)  They are usually still available in round 3. Safety:  Not sure we have the center fielder we need at FS.  Moehrig and Ransom might be the same thing.  And if it were not for Doc in "Back to the Future," nobody in Charlotte would ever say "Great Scott!"  We need a smart, defensive QB at S, in my opinion. Of course, OL (center, T) could be in play, but I like Mays as the starter at C and Moton could play another season or two.  We need to start grooming guards, but we have depth there now. My draft day order, by position: Linebacker  Have we ever been good without the best ILB in the NFL?  I don't think so. (3-4 now, but we run some 4-3 looks) QB #2 with long-term starting potential  (I like so many second-tier QBs.  one or two of them will become NFL starters.  Mark my words) Tight End  (lotta folks might disagree here, but a big-time, viable option to go with Mitchell, Sanders, and Tremble) Safety  (we need a QB for the D--Moehrig and Ransom are similar) Tackle (Moton is getting old and we need to start grooming a potential replacement) WR  (this late IF we sign a free agent) Center (I like Mays, but his contract status and the depth at C needs to be addressed)

      Saints opening line

      By uncfan888 · Posted

      Panthers open as 4.5 point favorites. You get three points for being at home so Vegas thinks we are only 1.5 points better than the one win saints..  Tells you what they think about the team and our ability to score
