Wasn’t he the guy that late-hit Cam a couple years ago?

Took a head shot while Cam was sliding. Wasn’t even close. Hard to blame him, the league had set the standard by not flagging head shots on Cam for years.

Falcons starting safety Damontae Kazee tore achilles. They already had one of the worst defenses in the league before his injury. That is likely the end of his career. That injury is not one a safety comes back from often. 

Overreaction... Will definitely have a big effect on his career and it's possibly the "end" but I wouldn't say that's "likely." Hasn't Richard Sherman come back from a couple achilles injuries? Even harder for a corner to come back from than a safety...

Sherman was elite pre-injury, and teams had all the incentive to give him benefit of the doubt during his extended recovery. Kazee is pretty whatever, and will have a lot less rope for an injury that commonly requires multiple years to really be at 100%.

He had 10 picks the last 2 years. He'll get more chances for sure.

      Do they practice down field throws at practice?

      I still think a Dalton thumb injury screwed us 2 seasons in a row.  It allowed the Bryce Young comeback after whoever finally gave a greenlight on being done w/ him 2 weeks into the season.  and I think we saw a soft benching this year and they wanted to see Andy run it with this crew.  But Andy hurting his thumb killed us from seeing whatever he has at full go in a game.  Bryce Young was never hurt those 2 games to the degree which called him to miss a game IMO.  You don't see QBs sit for such minor things....unless you just want to use it to explore and see.

      Dave Canales Panthers are 3-6 following a win

      By frankw · Posted

      I was quite critical of Ron Rivera's game day coaching decisions and management over his years here. Especially when he coached super conservative playing not to lose. But at the end of the day he never had to try and win with a Bryce Young. John Fox had to try and win with a Bryce Young and he completely checked out and got himself fired. The only. Only solution right now. Is to remove the anchor around our necks from the equation and move forward however we can and assess all the moving parts with the time we have left so we can move forward accordingly in the offseason. Not doing so is only going to further delay evaluating what we have in this young roster and this staff led by Canales.

      XL is a bust

      Sometimes GMs try outsmart everyone by picking a player they think has the physical tools and can be coached up but Legette is an example what happens when that doesn't work out. Teams that are already contenders with a full roster can take those chances. The Eagles, for example, could have rolled the dice on a guy like Legette. But the Panthers needed, and still need, to draft guys who are ready to play now in the first round. Legette wasn't that guy and there were much better options available.
