Wow...that is GIGANTIC Good News!

 

So....these next two games will be an opportunity to further create a Non-CMC Gameplan for Sam and the rest of the team to execute so that when CMC comes back, Sam will be like "You get a pass, you get a pass, everyone on the Panthers gets a Pass from me!!"

The pro of these stupid TNF games is we have 10 days till Dallas, almost like a mini bye. Means he likely misses only 2 games against Dallas and Philly with plans to have him back for Minnesota. 

The team not placing him on IR seems to indicate they also think he'll be 100% by that 3rd game. We saw last year they aren't afraid to shut him down till he's 100%.

Yeah and I'm pretty confident even without Horn and McCaffrey that we can at least split those 2 games and get McCaffrey back sitting at 4-1 if not 5-0.

Royce freeman is known for his pass protection. Not so much his running. 

I thought Freeman had on of the best runs of the night on one of the very few plays where there was actually a visible hole to run through. Chubba might be pretty good but he's a rook and still growing into his NFL body. Think about how different CMC looked his rookie year to now. Royce needs to be the lead back as soon as he knows the playbook well enough.

Friendly reminder that the IR rules have changed last year and this year, and now you can place as many players on IR as you want and ALL of them are eligible to return after 3 weeks.

 

So basically, if IR is not the plan as of now then the team thinks he's got a shot to play in 3 weeks or less. Otherwise they'd take the roster spot. Definitely encouraging news given the alternatives.

Great information.  Thanks.

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By strato · Posted

      So we are all supposed to bow now? Or can we wait until after the season?  The fear is not that he would prove me wrong, it is that the people in charge are fooled again and accept subpar results as enough progress to make a new commitment. And of course, we get the same start to next year as this year and the previous two years.  I am not afraid to be wrong. I have consistently said let’s let these games play out.    I am just unwilling to accept one or two nice games a year or three or four and the rest working around him like we have to do, as proof of success.  IOW I am afraid you are wrong to crown him, the FO will be wrong, etc… And screw you too calling people miserable old fugs.

      Maybe it depends on how the logo is tweaked.   Kinda looks college-ish    (yes, this is official NFL merch)

      Okay, whatever. Some people can't resist taking a crap in another man's cleats. Even after the guy set the new franchise record for passing yards in a game, won that game and won it against our division rivals. Yeah, he's still a frog, warts and all. A lot of you are tired of kissing him. A lot of you just keep seeing the frog and want it gone, for your own good reasons. Truth is, though, the franchise is going to keep kissing this frog in hopes of finding a prince through the rest of this season, no matter what happens. We've got Andy Dalton on the bench, just keeping it from flying up in the air and basically no one on the active roster behind him. We have the veritable murderer's row of opponents coming up, including half of the game vs division opponents, including two versus the division leading Bucs. There's really not an easy game ahead of us unless New Orleans decides to pack it in early and just phone in a contractual obligated effort. The only way, the EFFING ONLY WAY, Bryce comes out of this turning into the prince is if he wins four or more of these games and somehow gets the team into the playoffs. And you can read it here, there are a lot of people here who are actually afraid of that because they could be proven wrong about him, that we could be saddled with a QB they don't like because of it.  They'd fuging rather lose games and shorten the season to see Bryce fail, even if it means their team fails. Man, that's fuged up.  Root for the team or go the fug on. If that means you've got to pull for the little guy in the fight, then you  do. Hell, the odds are certainly stacked against him. But it sure would be nice if we hit a patch of magic after years of futility. But you guys would crap on that, too. Miserable old fugs.
