Matt Rhule said the team could keep six or seven wide receivers going into the regular season

Panther beat writer David Newton said it's "another indication of how wide open this offense is going to be with three to four receivers on the field at the same time," adding that the team usually decides on "whether to keep four to six receivers." Carolina offensive coordinator Joe Brady seems committed to running a relatively fast paced, aggressive offense. The Panthers could once again be among the league leaders in pass attempts. On a completely unrelated note, Teddy Bridgewater is available in the 14th round of one-QB leagues and the tenth round of 2-QB leagues.

Any more than 4 or 5 are really just ST players anyway, so the trade-off would be roster-bottom DBs or perhaps even LBs. Whatever position isn't on the regular roster would be loaded up on as part of the PS. Nothing to see here.

That quote says 4-6 that’s a lot different than 6-7... which is it? Because 7 is retarded. And so is 4 for that matter. Should be 5 or 6

maybe he is referring to in the past, hence the reason he said "usually".  

In the past we rarely had more than 3 WRs on the field at a time, so 5 made sense.  If we really run a lot of 4 receiver sets then 7 would probably be more likely than 5.  Only one extra is cutting it close.  It does seem like 6 would be a sweat spot though.

Or throw it before they get there.

Despite what some want to believe, Teddy has never been great at getting the ball out quickly. He was slower to throw last year than Cam has ever been as long as the NFL has been keeping advanced stats on average time to throw. Allen was faster as well and he took a pounding.

    • Really? Wow. Sorry. Got my timeline messed up. I remember someone claiming to be Graham’s mom on the old Charlotte.com board so I guess it was a long time ago that he was here. I guess I thought he was after Kasay. 
    • Nick Scott has gotten his share of Huddle hate, but I came across this SI article by Zach Roberts when I was researching recently released Quandre Diggs, speculated to be a better option  (https://lastwordonsports.com/nfl/2025/11/07/breaking-titans-cut-former-three-time-pro-bowler-quandre-diggs-4-destinations-ranked/3/), but getting back to Nick Scott... Now to be fair, the observation on Scott was before the Packers game, but the stats couldn't have changed that much, and may have gotten better.   "At some point during virtually every Carolina Panthers game, you have probably found yourself grumbling about Nick Scott. The much-maligned safety has seemingly been out of position a lot or has failed to make a play. The eye test has often let him down. "But that's why stats are so helpful. Sometimes, the eye test, especially for fans, is unreliable. On occasion, advanced metrics help make sense of things and lend more clarity. In the case of Scott, they make him look like a much better safety than any of us would've guessed. "In coverage, Scott has given up just 15 yards and an average of five yards per catch. That's the lowest among safeties, leading superstars like Julian Love, Talanoa Hafunga, Quandre Diggs, Kerby Joseph, Kyle Hamilton, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. "In FI%, the safety leads all his counterparts once again at 40%. Brian Branch, Camren Kinchens, and Xavier McKinney are some notable names he leads. He's been pretty excellent in pass coverage, which is crucial for the Panthers." For those wondering, "FI" means forced incompletions. Now I'm way past trying to figure out why X links aren't embedding for me like they used to, but here you go: https://x.com/dacornerman/status/1981363757608513632?t=rx_5iLjp8_y5huNcg_y1nA&s=19   Suffice it to say that Scott may not be as bad as some have led on.    https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/news/much-maligned-panthers-db-way-better-than-think      
    • Nah it was Graham. I remember watching it live.
