So Taylor Heinicke had surgery on his elbow yesterday

Yet his HC, his OC, and their advisory personnel on the training and medical staff kept throwing him out on the field against the Falcons because he "wanted to play".

This seems to be a common trait among that "brain" (and I use that term loosely) trust.

Winning and that point didn't matter. It sucks that he hurt his elbow, but who knows when he'd get a chance to show what he could go in a game again. And it would give the team more time to see what they had in home (and Allen the next week).

It's unfortunate that he got hurt, and his performance wasn't that hot, but I can't be upset by that. Should Thomas Davis have sat out his only chance to play in the Super Bowl?

Wishing Taylor a speedy recovery.

Was his nonthrowing arm and they had it braced. I almost have more of a problem with TD playing the SB fresh out of surgery with internal fixations in his forearm while making tackles. This was about Taylor wanting to showcase himself. Not ineptness of the coaching staff, which don’t get me wrong is still an issue itself.

This is rich.  If RR would have sat Tyler someone else would make a thread complaining that he played Cam when he was obviously hurt and yet sat Taylor right away after he got hurt.  They'd probably also go out of their way to point out that Cam and Taylor are different races.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      By strato · Posted

      Lot of different agendas dictating opinions.  I don’t think it was the best use of money with Hunt, specifically, but the concept of OL, I am a fan. I didn’t complain a ton because I am a believer in winning up front, on both sides of the ball. I’d rather have stout fronts than fancy WRs. I have complained some about Hunt not being worth his deal, after seeing him get pushed around in a game or two. It’s no crusade. And have complained in the context of shorting the defense.   They have leveled out the FA imbalance with the dual big signings this offseason, and it has always been the draft picks I am most protective of. Anyway The picks are the real imbalance. If you did a trade chart value of the picks we directly gave up for Bryce, and added the support picks invested for skill players, and put that on one side… then put the little 3 3rd rounders and a 2nd that the defense got over three years on the other it would be hugely out of balance. I just want the balance restored. Defense is still owed.

      I'm one of the ones that won't let it go because it didn't solve the problem. We didn't address the center position which was a huge mistake. We were in position to easily take 2 or the top IOL. Instead of drafting JPJ over XL or Frazier over Brooks, we relied on an oft injured guard to center conversion and lo and behold, it failed as predicted. XL looks like a 1 year college wonder and an injured Brooks hasn't even surpassed Eric Shelton.  Bryce was also benched for poor performance, so the issue that many claimed was solely bad oline play wasn't. It didn't fix him bailing out of tight pockets because of being unable to see the field or him refusing to work on his atrocious footwork. Then there's the $$$. Lewis got a good guard payday. Hunt got a tackle payday. Pay tackles, draft guards, if you can.  I have no issues addressing problems through FA. It was not addressing C at all that's been the issue and still has been. Ryan Kalil was the anchor of our offensive line. We had years of solid center play and it showed. Now we're still piecemealing the center position with an expensive oline and it's still a shitshow. Why? Because the player responsible for what happens on the line presnap has little to no experience doing it. We did acquire a FA center this year finally. We'll see how much that impacts the line.  Spending on a center, whether it be through draft or FA is not bad. It's not a position that can have anyone just thrown in with no drop off in performance. A great center lifts the play of the guards on each side.  I don't like how we've built the line because we've ignored the hinge pin that everyone counts on every play. And the reality of the situation is, it didn't solve the actual problems with Bryce because those have nothing to do with the oline.

      Haha!!! That's true. Also carry Tomahawks, ballistic missiles, fighter jets, VSTOL aircraft, etc., but none of them clog up the crappers.
