[Rapoport] #Panthers TE Greg Olsen is in shells and a helmet today, per @PanthersBill. Word was he was hoping to play 4-5 weeks after breaking his foot, without surgery. This Sunday would be week 4 in what may be an impressive return.

 

Woah.... That's aggressive Greg.....

Depends, he said in his interview the screw for stability was already in the foot from surgery, and depending on the severity of the injury we may be at a place where it's logical to return. I'm not a physician so I don't know. 

All you can do is trust the doctors, and what the player believes he can accomplish, but if X-Rays are clear, I don't see why you don't play him if he believes he can go. 

I've fractured my 4th and 5th metatarsals in each foot, it was right around this time frame I was able to play again, and this is obviously without NFL caliber rehab.

So he will be back against the Giants? Hopefully he doesn't get hurt like Williams.

It’s incredibly unlikely he’s gonna be back for the Giants game but it’s looking like he might be able to make it back by the Eagles game with the Redskins game being unlikely but not impossible.

Pretty sure Ron already said he’s not playing this week,... But he may be back next week which is pretty amazing. Certainly don’t want to rush him though, he aggravated it when he came back last year...

He was listed as out but today would be the day to know because Friday is a walk through.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
