Ron Rivera: Panthers still have more roster decisions to be made

Carolina coach Ron Rivera didn't rule out the possibility of left tackle Matt Kalil, who had his knee scoped two weeks ago, go on injured reserve. “We'll see what happens. We've got a couple of more roster decisions to be made from what I understand.'' If a player goes on IR after he's named to the 53-man roster the team has the flexibility to bring him back after eight weeks. Kalil, a league source told ESPN.com on Saturday, isn't expected to be ready for the opener and it appears past that.

That would mean that he probably has eight games left with this team, in addition to the playoffs. 

if cut after this year, he's 13.7 against the cap. 

you can cut him the year after and it's only 1.8

wait another year and you save 6 mil by cutting him

i mean obviously sunk cost etc but the only thing worse than him being on the team will be his leaving it.

    • If you want attention to something, I feel like the report button works better than just saying mods in the thread.  I assume it sends them an alert, as I doubt they just continuously watch this place.   Just trying to help, if you actually see something somewhere that needs intervention or you feel this does.
    • Yes, in the absence of your big brain, those points have been discussed ad nauseum around here. Most stable individuals can see that the org sucks since Tepper took over. We can’t change that fact so we debate Bryce’s viability as a QB into oblivion. Bryce has shown the occasional flash but it is year 3 and decisions have to be made. I personally don’t think he’s cut out for this but as a fan of the Panthers I hope that somehow it works.
    • I agree that perspective is important.  I also think that it's fine to take the wins when you can.  So the Panthers have started playing a lot better against bad teams after the first couple of weeks.  Cool, I'll take that.  Will it continue?  I don't know.  The Jets could be the uber trap/Steve Wilks revenge buzzsaw that sucks all the life and wind out of us.  Or we could beat them and the narrative still wouldn't change because they are a really bad team. Here's my long perspective:  We've been one of the worst teams since we traded for Bryce - talent level, wins, etc.  Any metric will show that.  This year, we are improving.  Maybe we're not bottom tier trash.  Maybe we're just to below average.  That's growth as far as I'm concerned.  I'll take that.
