Bad news on Matt Kalil


TheSpecialJuan

Recommended Posts

There is no clear timeline for Panthers LT Matt Kalil (knee) to return.

Kalil had his knee scoped on August 21 and reportedly has "no clear timeline" to return. Pelissero notes the Panthers have a bye in Week 4, so it's logical the team could hold out Kalil at least for the first three games. Carolina recently acquired OT Corey Robinson from the Lions since RT Daryl Williams (knee, MCL) is closer to being placed on injured reserve than he is returning in 2018. Taylor Moton is expected to start at left tackle in Week 1 for a Carolina offensive line that remains in shambles.

The part about Daryl Williams is the worst part of that quote if true.

It’s a post from rotoworld and that’s just whoever wrote it’s logical opinion about how the injury was reported, not a new report that he’s not healing properly or whatever. The odds of him returning this year were always long, I don’t think anything has changed.

This team is built to make a run...but then you see our OL.  How can we keep whiffing on this so badly?  Just give Cam something decent.  

Yeah, how can we keep whiffing on this so badly while injuries ravage the players. 

Think. please just think before you post.

    • It's not even a particularly nuanced opinion, yet it seems out of reach for so many.
    • I don’t think he can be great. For me he tops out as starter maybe make the playoffs, stuff like that. I would have been okay with that kind of player as a placeholder but you don’t invest the time and assets we did and be happy with that.  On the cure,If a guy has mechanical flaws but otherwise is enticing, you let someone else make the mistake of taking him in the top of the 1st. If he doesn’t get taken you can pick him up 2nd or 3rd day and try to develop him (off the bench not starting).  The risk/reward with Bryce was horribly misjudged. I didn’t want to trade like that in the first place because I didn’t see the generation talent that justifies that type of move, but once it was done CJ was the better gamble. No doubt. 
    • That's what I mean. If you claim to possess some super knowledge about the QB position from a previous non-football but football related job, wouldn't you want to expound upon that to support this "everyone doesn't know anything about being a QB" thesis? The rest is just summed up by stating that there are a lot of variables to a QB being successful. Yeah....I mean that isn't earth shattering.  While there is certainly a lot of luck involved in all manners of success, consistent success with the variables around you also changing on a regular basis is usually fairly conclusive.  Is Trent Dilfer the same as Tom Brady? Is Nick Foles the same as Patrick Mahomes? I supposed based on the OP's arguments, they are. That's not really the way it turned out, however.  The NFL isn't unlike most other jobs or even other sports. The cream typically does rise to the top on a more consistent basis. Is it accidental that premier poker players seem to win or perform very well on a consistent basis, give that any individual hand is largely luck?
