It happened to the Steelers this year and they didn't have a back up either. I mean you don't really count on the kicker getting hurt sometimes poo happens

I understand that, but at least know who your emergency kicker is. Taking a poll right before the game is pathetic.

WFT went through the same two weeks ago, and had the same results as us. They had to go for 2pt conversion the rest of their games, and their punter (tress way) had not attempted a field goal since 2009. It’s not like these punters, are asked to practice field goals at practice… that’s like asking a receiver to take hand offs and run HB dives and zone reads…..  what we saw today is normal in the NFL, unless you are a franchise that’s fortunate to have a dual threat Punter.

How is it possible that our punter has never attempted a kick off or a short fg? It’s hard to fathom. 

 Because he is a punter and not a kicker.  Why hasn’t our long snapper ever played WR?  Hard to fathom

I guess I always took it for granted that teams know their personel and what happens if a kicker gets injured. 

 

Apparently we had never even addressed it. Tall about a poo show. 

Hey genius. How many football games have you watched, and how many times has this happened. If you post like it’s a general occurrence to fit your fire Rhule narrative, fine. Say that. You have a punter who is punter specific, it’s the risk you run. Deal with it.

    • not sure if any of this is news, but a good summary of our situation heading into training camp.  It's sure gonna be good getting Derrick back. After missing virtually all of the 2024 season, Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is aiming for a full return to the field during training camp later this summer, per Joseph Person of The Athletic. Brown tore his meniscus in Week 1 and underwent season-ending surgery that has kept him limited through spring practices, though he did participate in “walk-throughs and light side work” during mandatory minicamp, according to Person. Brown originally stated a desire to be ready for the 2025 regular season, but his timeline appears to have moved up. Brown’s injury was particularly disappointing after a career-best 2023 season. He led all defensive linemen with 103 total tackles and was named to his first Pro Bowl, earning him a four-year, $96MM extension from the Panthers in April 2024. While he has never been a prolific pass rusher, Brown’s size and power has consistently commanded double-teams and created opportunities for his teammates. His impact was evident last season, as Carolina’s run defense ranked dead-last in his absence. The Panthers spent significant resources this offseason on defensive line depth, which should allow them to manage Brown’s usage more carefully coming off a major injury. He played a whopping 940 defensive snaps in 2023 (89% of the team’s total) and was on the field for almost every play before his injury last year. With new teammates Tershawn Wharton, Bobby Brown III, and Cam Jackson ready to share the load, Derrick Brown can take a lower snap share to stay fresh and healthy for the entire season. Here are a few updates on other Panthers returning from injuries:     https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/06/panthers-injury-updates-brown-tremble-barno-wallace
    • Yeah it's kind of like they don't want him on the team anymore for some reason
