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.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
