How good is the Panthers' medical staff?

You could just as easily ask “how is their strength and conditioning program?”

 

Yeah, but I wanted to summarize the group/process in the thread title---I did mention them.  That is part of it, and an important part.

I’d argue one of the more important parts. There’s a reason injuries occur in the first place.

Sometimes it boils down to it being such a brutal sport but a lot of times these injuries are preventable via proper strength progression and conditioning coupled with adequate rest and nutrition.

NFL medical staffs for teams are all probably about the same. If ours was worse Tepper would change it. Hell, JR would have changed it.

This.

These players hopefully are smart enough to know getting second opinions and more qualified outside health sources is the best option. They are most certainly paid enough to have that be an option, so really there is no excuse.

Probably?  But you really don't know, and you decided to apply that lack of knowledge to a thread where you called those that oppose your lack of knowledge names. Perhaps a different strategy would help make you a bit more credible--and likable. 

This article is about a game in which Case Keenum visibly suffered a concussion.  He stayed in the game, was diagnosed with a concussion.  It talks about consistency with NFL concussion protocol.  Now, if they were all the same, would it be necessary to address INCONSISTENCIES in medical protocols?  Most medical staffs would have pulled Keenum, but this one did not.  It is only an example, because I like to provide supported facts when I make a statement. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/rams/2015/11/23/case-keenum-concussion-st-louis/76266596/

That is true--I played in college and strength and condition is part of the rehab that is medical--but S&C is also something individualized for all players...But the medical staff (specialists communicating with trainers, etc)  oversees the injury from initial diagnosis through the surgery to the S&C.  If they misdiagnose the success of the surgery, or fail to see this or that, the S&C can delay the process.  They work together, monitor progress or the lack of it, etc.  It is all connected, but I would refute any position that suggests it is more important that medical oversight.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
