Panthers placing additional players on Covid list

Recommended Posts

CHARLOTTE - The Panthers aren't coming back from their bye week at full strength.

Additional players will be added to the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday, and the facility will be closed Monday and Tuesday.

Teams may not disclose whether a player has tested positive for COVID-19 or whether he is quarantining because of close exposure to someone who has tested positive. Names of the players being placed on the list won't be available until the team submits the transactions to the league.

The Panthers will still conduct virtual meetings and testing, and will continue to consult the medical experts and league personnel on any appropriate next steps.

Last week, the Panthers placed rookie defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos and practice squad defensive tackle Bruce Hector on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

They were the first two names added since cornerback Rasul Douglas on Oct. 23.

Players had last week off for the bye week, a late break in advance of the final four games of the season.

Based on our play with Walker at QB, Teddy is probably our best tanker.

Man I would take the chance so I wouldn't fall asleep watching Teddy check down play. Either way it gives us a better chance to lose to a lesser opponent. We need to try for that 5th pick and maybe get a QB or LT.

Will the league force us to play shorthanded like they did the Broncos or let us postpone the game multiple times like the Ravens?

At this point, just fug us over. Let's get this tank done and get this top 6 pick. 

Does anyone really care about winning more games at 4-8? I mean, it's fun in the moment but I am to the point where it isn't like we are playing for a playoff spot.

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
