This is exactly why drafting a RB in the top 10 and paying huge money to RB's is a dumbass decision. Drafting CMC at 8 then making him the highest paid RB were dumbass moves.

Chuba is a 4th round pick and is good. Kamara, good, third round pick. Good RB's .. elite RB's can be regularly had in rounds 3 and 4 and even later.

Preach!

Robby appears to be open inside the hash; the DB bailed and was respecting his speed while protecting the sideline.  What you can't see is where that safety on that side of the field is until the ball is already in the air.  If anything, if the pass went to Robby (and he held onto the ball) it would have moved the sticks, but it's not like there was a TD pass to be had.

Also 5 Giants defenders in on that play.  That shouldn't happen unless two receivers end up in the same location and that's not by design.

Would Robby have made the 2 yard line? Because that's where the 1st down marker was.

Not so quick here is the top RB in yard so far this year Henry rd 2,Taylor rd 2, Mixon rd 2 , Chubb rd 2 , Elliott rd 1, Robinson free agent, Damien Harris rd 3, Henderson rd 3 , Fournett rd 1 , Gibson rd 3, Jones rd 5, Edmonds rd 4 , Harris rd 1, Karma rd 3, Cook rd 2 so mostly in rounds 1 or 2 and if CMC , Barkley, Jacobs we’re not hurt they would be in the top 15 and all were first round picks . So why trade away all our draft picks for a QB by your logic the best QB ever was a 6th round and we can pick them big guys with the first round picks

My view of it all was they sooooo much wanted to move on from Cam they did everything they could (+++carries etc.) to make this CMCs team instead.

All good and fine but you don't replace a star QB with a star RB. It doesn't work that way. Duh.

You don't pay a RB WR money either.

Then the Saints , Vikings , Cowboys ,Titans shouldn”t have paid their RB either which includes Kamara who signed a 75,000,000 million for 5 years . They all are right their with pay the same as CMC

Kamara probably just won the game on 3rd and 10.

Kamara is great and worth every dollar they pay him but if we didn’t pick CMC that year the Saints were going to with their pick and imagine CMC behind that o line with a play caller like Payton

How could you watch this game and conclude that a top tier RB is worth it?  I'm watching a 10-10 game between two teams that desperately need better QB play.

The QB us the most important position on the team nobody is debating that . But Derrick Henry just might go old school and take a team to the Super Bowl on his back.You also can’t just get a back off the scrap pile and expect to dominate they either picked in the 1st or 2nd round. We just made a mistake picking a RB high in the draft and not building a O line around him and Cam. We should have went O line instead of Brown and Burns . The top teams in the NFL this year all put more emphasis on Offense instead of Defense

    • Games been a snooze fest of sloppy play
    • ESPN's David Newton: QUARTERBACKS (2): Bryce Young, Andy Dalton A preseason muscle injury to Dalton's right arm could force the Panthers to keep Jack Plummer if the issue gets worse, but that currently doesn't seem to be a concern. For the first time since going No. 1 in 2023, there is no question that Young is the starter after winning two of his final three games last season with 10 touchdowns (7 passing, 3 rushing) and no turnovers. RUNNING BACKS (3): Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne Selecting Etienne in the fourth round out of Georgia makes veteran Raheem Blackshear a likely cut. Etienne has shown in the preseason that he is a capable option as a runner, in addition to being a returner, which has been Blackshear's primary responsibility since 2022. WIDE RECEIVERS (7): Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen, Jalen Coker, Jimmy Horn Jr., David Moore, Hunter Renfrow This is the most improved group on the team, so keeping seven initially makes sense. If the Panthers go with six it could make coach Dave Canales' favorite, Moore, expendable with Renfrow showing he's close to the level he played in 2021 when he made the Pro Bowl with the Las Vegas Raiders. Brycen Tremayne, who's had an excellent preseason, will be a tough cut. TIGHT ENDS (3): Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders, Mitchell Evans There is anticipation Tremble (back surgery) will be ready for the regular season after coming off the PUP list before the preseason finale, though he could still miss a game or two. Keeping him on the 53-man roster makes sense so she doesn't have to miss the first four games. OFFENSIVE LINEMEN (10): T Ikem Ekwonu, G Damien Lewis, G Robert Hunt, C Austin Corbett, C Cade Mays, T Taylor Moton, T Yosh Nijman, T-G Brady Christensen, G Chandler Zavala, G Jarrett Kingston Injuries to guards Lewis (strained shoulder) and Zavala (knee) plays a factor in keeping 10 instead of the nine predicted going into camp. The starting five returning from 2024 had a solid preseason, but the lackluster play of backups showed depth remains a concern. DEFENSIVE LINEMEN (6): DE Derrick Brown, NT Bobby Brown III, DE Tershawn Wharton, DE A'Shawn Robinson, NT Cam Jackson , DE Jaden Crumedy A shoulder injury that has kept fifth-round pick Jackson from making an impact means Crumedy could make it here. The biggest cut will be Shy Tuttle, who has 32 starts the past two years but little to show for it. Moving on from him will create $2.4 million in cap space that can be used elsewhere. LINEBACKERS (10): OLB D.J. Wonnum, OLB Patrick Jones II, OLB Princely Umanmielen, OLB Nic Scourton, OLB Thomas Incoom, ILB Christian Rozeboom, ILB Trevin Wallace, ILB Claudin Cherelus, ILB Jon Rhattigan, ILB Jacoby Windmon The release of ILB Josey Jewell (concussion protocol) at the start of camp required immediate attention, but Rozeboom has stepped up well. Depth remains a big question, particularly inside. Moving on from draft pick Bam Martin-Scott means he'll likely end up on the practice squad. It was time to move on from OLB DJ Johnson. Look for turnover beyond the starters here. CORNERBACKS (5): Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Chau Smith-Wade, Shemar Bartholomew, Corey ThorntonJackson has played well enough at times to ease the concern opposite Pro Bowler Horn. Thorton's play during camp has been a big surprise, but the overall depth of this group means there likely will be turnover. SAFETIES (4): Tre'von Moehrig, Nick Scott, Demani Richardson, Lathan Ransom The big question is how long it will take fourth-round pick Ransom to replace Scott as the starter opposite Moehrig. Also, don't rule out another experienced player being signed. SPECIALISTS (3): K Ryan Fitzgerald, P Sam Martin, LS JJ Jansen Big-legged undrafted free agent Fitzgerald out of Florida State may have solidified his spot over Matthew Wright with a 52-yard field goal in the second preseason game against the Texans. The other two spots are solid, but Carolina likely will keep an eye out for dependable veterans who end up being released.
