I’ll have plenty on that tomorrow. This idea that they can keep utilizing McCaffrey exclusively is ridiculous. Newton accounted for over 100 rushes last year, that’s what eased the workload for 22. That’s not a knock on Christian. It’s the new reality of the offense.

There was nothing wrong with having a CJ Anderson (or a power back vet) giving the team 7 to 10 carries a game. 

Norv can be very peculiar times. Make no mistake, he has a lot of power in that building.

Gotta admit they gave us one back though. That re-spot is one of the damnedest things I've ever seen.

All in all, I think if you wanted to write a summary of tonight's game, the title of this thread would probably be enough.

This. 

 

That re-spot looked like blatantly fixing a game.

That became clear pretty early on. Ron looks at Norv like Luke Skywalker looks at Yoda.

Have said it several times already: Bowles devoted his resources to stopping McCaffrey because he believed we didn't have enough outside of him to beat them.

I really wish he would have been wrong.

Like for the Saints Texans game people were talking about how cool that pilon camera was. They didn't have it in the budget for this game? Damn NFL

At the time of that play Aikman and Buck had specifically said Fox safety protocols were requiring the camera crew to be off the field. Now, if it's that unsafe I don't understand why the game was allowed to take place or why a game was played without standard review angles available, but that's a different conversation.

Either way though it looked pretty clear to me that Cam got it.

It’s how I felt for most of the game. Not much else you can say at this point. It is what it is.

Terrible spot. But Panthers DESERVED to lose this game because they did nothing with repeated possessions. I don't feel like this was a turning point so much as a poor piece of officiating.

      Noah Fant? "Perfect fix?" More like imperfect fix.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.

      Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up.

      I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
