I'm pretty sure the plan wa to start Irvin and bring burns along slowerly in a pass rusher type role.. but with burns mild success and I say that in the least hes won on 29% of his pass rushes a a mark I believe that make him 4th best in the league. Does Ron say hey Bruce is a vet burns take a seat we will call you when we need you.. or does Ron say Bruce who? And make him rotate with Addison? 

What say you.

Looking at snap counts, Burns has played the same number of snaps as Mario with 143 out of 217 (65.9%).

Others are:

 

Haynes 79 out of 217 (36.4%)

Obada (not sure how many on the line vs OLB) 60 out of 217 (27.6%)

Carter 52 out of 217 (24.0%)

Miller 37 out of 217 (17.1%)

 

Not really sure whose snaps Irvin takes but I’m sure he’ll have a role. Miller could be inactive. I see him taking more snaps in run situations than passing situations, he’s better against the run than Mario and Burns at this point. I think it’ll work out just fine and Burns will still have a huge role.

I could only see Millers reps increase.. he was a stud last week with what 2 sacks? That's the kind of production you want to see out of the rook.. shows the light could be coming on. He was a 5 star prospect coming into Alabama.. he finally be  blossoming all that unrefined talent.

We platoon edge rushers and keep everyone fresh. Given Irvin hasn't played in weeks I doubt he starts. He needs to work himself into football shape.

I agree.  You don't come off an injury and be amazing.  Plus he isn't a spring chicken anymore.  I do believe he'll help our run defense.  

I think in the end it is a good problem to have.

    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep. 
    • Cooter was a good dude for sure. 
    • We both been here about the same amount of time. Whatever happened to Livermush? I know Cooter passed aways years ago...and so many others?
