Honestly, any situation where Brady Christensen starts for us - even at guard - is nothing but a win.  It would mean the draft has yielded at least three starting caliber players from three different rounds.  That's the sort of drafting that builds a franchise from inconsistent to perennial winner.

Well, that is a post season discussion more than a preseason discussion. Sometimes starting a rookie isn't necessarily a good thing. On our OL, starting may not mean that much.

I think Horn, Marshall, and Tremble are already showing themselves to be starters, or at least players who will have situational roles in the case of the latter 2. BC starting, and playing well, anywhere on the line is certainly a win, and would make four!

I always try  to beat a dead horse, but Moton at LT and Christensen at RT sure solves a lotta problems.

It doesn’t solve anything If they aren’t good at it.

As good as Moton is at RT we want to believe he will be that great at LT but that isn’t always true, and to be honest his sample size over there is rather limited. 

Speaking of sample size, thinking BC solves anything at RT is nothing more than wishful thinking at this point.  He is a rookie who never played in an NFL game and only has a few snaps in practice under his belt.  History tells us most OTs struggle their first year in the NFL, for him to be anything better than average would be an exception.

Pretty much the only player we know for sure can play above average at their position based on recent history is Moton at RT, anything list that is hoping.

I believe his assumption was they both won the job and are playing well. It would solve our tackle issues for years to come.

      The Evolution of the Panthers WR Room from 2023 to 2025

      I'm more impressed with the UDFA that the guys they have drafted in the first the last 2 years. A whole lot of prove it is still needed before any improvement should be talked about seriously.

      PANTHERS @ HURRICANES ROUND 3 GAME 1

      By PantherChris · Posted

      While I don't believe its a must win, (we have been better on the road this post season) it is definitely A NEED TO WIN the longer this series goes the more pronounced the Canes advantage on rest and health will be! If we hold serve at home in games 1 and 2 guaranteeing a 6 game minimum series for them if we lose the road games..... by the game 4 and 5 I expect them to be beat they have played A LOT OF HOCKEY the last three years, they have MINIMAL rest off a more physical than one might have expected series vs the leafs.... you know Tampa took their pound of flesh in round 1 from them. Combine all that with the fact that even though this year's canes squad isn't as talented as last years this IS a better squad than the one they swept last time that had McKenzie Mckeathern on line 1 Turbo with a broken hand a banged uo and eventually concussed Slavin (and even though it was a sweep 6 OTS and 4 1 goal losses is hardly dominant)  This year Bob hasn't been superman (hes probably gonna still have a great save percentage agiast us just a side effect of our style) Thatchuk is maybe 50% (3 game winners agiast us) their defense no longer has Gudas and several other downgrades.  While the Canes have a healthy and performing Svechnikov along with other big guys to counteract florida like Carrier, Jankowski, Robinson.   I by know means think it will happen but I either see this as a low scoring dog fight or a series were the canes surprise and end up dominating.
