Curtis Samuel is a legitimate offensive weapon and playmaker.  He was drafted in the second round, man.  He provides a spark---hell, a jolt on offense when he is in the game. The end zone is a real thing for him whenever he touches the ball and not just some myth.  He is more than some gadget player that was drafted late or some UDFA whose claim to legitimacy is special teams or excelling against everyone but starters.  Stop treating Samuel as such!  Get number 10 into the game early and often so that he can get into the flow of the game,  develop a rhythm, and provide Cam with an explosive weapon that can get open at will or at least more times than not.  I respect Smith and Wright, and both made key plays today. They don't have the play making ability of Samuel though, so let's get Samuel more involved in the game going forward. 

Sincerely,  Top Dawg of the Carolina Huddle.

Funchess-x( Torrey Smith Sub)

Dj Moore-Y/Z (Damiere Byrd Sub)

Curtis Samuel-Z/Y (Jairus Wright Sub)

 

This is the most legit WR corps we have had in a long while, and throw Olsen in the mix and we are dangerous before we even get to the back field.  I'm still concerned that the coaches just can't seem to get the snap count in order. All these guys compete but Samuel, Moore and Funchess should be on the field more.

How can Norv not see this?

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I've been hearing all about this "winning culture" for years while watching us piss away top shelf draft position with meaningless late season wins when we're already eliminated from the playoffs but being assured this is building "winning culture" just to inevitably suck again next year. With that said, I'll always take a playoff berth. Just make the dance and you have a chance to make some noise. But spare me the "winning culture" bullshit.

      Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4.
