Not to mention we would have already burnt CMC out by then. So yeah, even in the off chance we make the playoffs, it would be all for nothing since CMC would literally be worn out by then. I just don't get it, every single good team out there has a good RB committee. Saints have Kamara/Murray, Packers have Aaron Jones/Williams, 49ers have Coleman/Breida, Seahawks have Carson/Penny, Chiefs have McCoy/Williams, etc. Hell, even the Vikings are spelling Dalvin Cook. I just don't get why we don't even try to establish a #2 behind CMC so he won't be out of the league by year 5 due to mileage. We need a new approach and new innovative coaches that can take advantage of the talent we have before it's too late.

God damn, this.

If CMAC is this overused after next season I don’t see how logical it would be to sign him to a Zeek level contract. 
 

It fuging kills me, Norv in San Diego had Michael Turner and Darren Sproles but still ran LT into the dirt.

all honesty looking back at the 49ers game, lots of receivers were open.

kyle allen literally was abysmal at progressing through his reads and recognizing who'd be open. 

i've been a norv turner critic in the past, so yeah i'm not exactly making things up when i say he's been creative.

it was the first game i've seen like that from allen, not to mention his accuracy was complete shite.   still no reason to abandon the run from norv so early.   still no reason to not call more screens and misdirection.  this was a complete shitshow and it included norv.   we watched them do to our D what we try and do to opposing D's.   norv is old and predictable.   he called an awful game

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
