Weren't those things he did during games and not practice?

#1 threw high passes and turnovers in camp and there was plenty of discussion about it no different than now. Idk why the kid gloves all the sudden but I guess memories get a little fuzzy.

These guys are having tons of info thrown at them, they are trying to stay hydrated.  Their legs feel like rubber and the heat makes it difficult to think.  Day 1--you are pumped.  Day 6?  You are closer to a zombie.  Trust me (based on college) they are counting the days...

Our last franchise qb was scrutinized on everything from his throws to how he sat on the bench to how he celebrated. Scrutiny comes with the position chief 🤷‍♂️

So if you didnt like it or think it was fair then why would you choose to continue the cycle?  There just isnt much benefit in scrutinizing every single throw in the first week of practice on a new team.

I believe this is my first camp thread remarking on his passes. But also it was specifically about a pick six though. That detail will garner a little more attention. Look we all know Sam has the arm and the ability it boils down to that next step. We want him to take it but this is the stuff he has to get out of his system now.

The constant conundrum of training camp. For one player/unit to have success requires another player/unit to struggle. Hence the constant hand wringing.

It makes the joint team practices much more exciting.

Who is currently RB2? 

Looked to be either Hubbard or Bonnafon based on what I saw Sat. night, but Rhule is giving a lot of the RBs reps with the ones.  I saw Rodney Smith, Darius Clark, and Spencer Brown sprinkled in a little bit.

The one guy who didn't see RB reps was Trenton Cannon, who was doing drills with the WR's.  I personally think this is to showcase his versatility.  Cannon is the #1 KR currently, and I think the staff is looking at him as primarily a returner with the ability to be RB4 or WR7 if needed along with playing ST's.  I think he has a great chance of making the team.

In fact, I think the one spot that could be up for grabs is Bonnafon's.  CMC is CMC, Hubbard will make the team, as will Cannon I think.  One of the guys mentioned above will have to beat out Bonnafon IMO, but I think Bonnafon has to slip for that to happen.

I think the RB depth (barring injuries) will be:

RB1: CMC (it's almost beyond accolades at this point to sa

RB2: Hubbard (he was also KR2 from what I saw)

RB3: Bonnafon (did really well in the limited opportunities backing up CMC in 2019 before injury last year)

RB4/WR7/KR1: Cannon

Biggest takeaway to me is that Rhule puts a lot of value on RB's being able to rush and catch passes from the RB spot

They practice all season and the same things happen. Its just that fans don't get daily practice updates.

I don't get the impression that those who over emphasize every rep played sports.

    • forgot to include the quote: best play in panther history   Pretty great.  X Clown also. I was always real fond of Jake’s 1st play vs Jacksonville simply for his entrance into the huddle which completely woke people up. That and what they went on to do in that game was a major turning point for the franchise.IMO. Kris Jenkins’ kick xp block vs TB is a big one for me. 
    • I certainly wouldn't be surprised if that happened.  We might take a shot with say a fourth rounder if there is someone the staff likes.  
    • I interpreted your original reply as the team could have success if the new players and coaches were really good, AND they created an offense that didn't count on the QB being a primary contributor. Because you think Bryce won't be able to hold up his end. I think you confirm that above. My only point is that I don't see how anyone can say definitively what Bryce Young will be in the league yet, based on his supporting cast from last season. And it seems those that have already decided that Bryce Young is a bust, likely just didn't like him as the pick in the first place. A little context for me... lots of folk here didn't like Cam while he was a Panther either. It had very little to do with him as a talent. And just for the record, I really am not invested in Bryce Young. I didn't want the team to move up for a QB at all in 2023. I thought 2024 would be the year to go for a QB. But when they did, I ordered the QBs as Anthony Richardson, then CJ, then Bryce. The disfunction from the front office, to the playcalling, to the scheme, to the oline and the receivers was just not a good situation. Horrible actually. Asking a rookie to perform with all that adversity is just not realistic to me, at any position let alone QB. So to me, the verdict is still out. I don't know if he can be the guy because the situation he was in last year was set up to fail from the start. In preseason, as soon as I saw the oline couldn't figure out how to even slow down the Jets' pass rush (particularly stunts) and the receivers were locked up like Fort Knox, I knew we were in for a long season.
