CAP vs Barner

Recommended Posts

Typically we have carried 3 RBs with a FB in the mix. CMC and Anderson are locks at RB. Armahgeddon is a lock at FB from what we hear at mini camp - Norv seems to be utilizing him a ton more.

So when it comes down to the 3rd RB spot - Are we all so certain CAP will make the team? Barner brings the added value of KR/PR ability. That alone has me leaning more towards Barner. He's much more of a 3rd down, screen catching, quick-shifty kinda guy. Also don't sleep on Elijah Hood from Carolina. Could be a nice camp battle to watch in Spartanburg.

Btw, we still doing the Spartanburg thing next year??

It was the same with Clemson fans last year and the LB(Boulware) who was CLEARLY not an NFL caliber player.

That is the #1 problem with college sports fans, they can't take off the homer glasses at the next level. 

But he sleeps in the parking lot and sticks his finger in buttholes of opposing players!

The infatuation with Hood is just a bunch of overly excited UNC fans not seeing the obvious. Not every good college player translates to the NFL.

One day last season, or the season before (?), there were more NC State QBs starting than there were UNC players starting.

Even being an NC State fan, I wouldn't want the Panthers to load up on State players that weren't worthy of NFL roster spots. I am not hating on Hood because he is from UNC, he just simply isn't an NFL caliber player.

Similarly, guys like Reggie Bonnafon are unlikely to be anything more than practice squad or training camp bodies. Fans get too caught up in a lot of these late round picks and UDFAs. The overwhelming majority of them are not going to pan out.

    • Yes message boards will always include that sort of stuff… However, this place has been a cess pool since the team took Bryce Young over CJ Stroud. It becomes a problem when it is accepted and promoted, which it has been here (even by at least one mod). Many posters sole purpose on this board is to try to dunk on others for having different opinions. We just had one write a novella on how talking about Bryce Young’s game winning drives “needs to stop”…after a win. They don’t want real conversation. It “needs to stop”. There are many posters here who literally only show up after losses to dead thread and try to dunk on others about the QB (MRenshaw is an easy example). I really don’t see much of that happening the other way around. There’s too many people that would rather the team be bad so they can feel justified for constant doom and gloom and negative opinions. It’s been pointed out by many over the past couple years. This just isn’t a place to have football discussions anymore because of the constant hyperbole. If you don’t subscribe to “Bryce Young is the worst QB ever who can’t throw the ball further than 5 yards and is the reason why we lose any game we lose and doesn’t help in any game we win”, then you are labeled a Bryce Young Stan. 
    • if you believe he is watching every NFL game.....every week.....go right ahead.  I get it, he said something you like.  But that's like believing the talking heads on the ESPN shows are watching all the games.  You think Stephen A is watching the Panthers every Sunday too?  If Stephen A needs to go on First Take he certainly can pretend like he has watched every snap any player on the roster has taken lol.   No one is that isn't a Panther fan has been watching the 9-25 career go down every Sunday.  Or even a lot of Sunday's.  You know who knows more about Bryce Young than Long? The collective huddle.  What they are reviewing is stat sheets, highlights and in summaries.  It's an old formula lol.
