Water is wet.

I know a lot of people are high on Chuba, and he did RUN the ball better last year compared to the year before, but he can not catch a cold. He has stone hands and he is the worst receiving back on the team. When CMC went down, it wasn't just a noticeable dropoff in the RB receiving game because he wasn't being utilized, he was, he just dropped damn near everything thrown his way.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Blackshear take 3rd down duties and slowly work into the running rotation as Chuba is fazed out as the year progresses.

I feel like he is better at OG. BC at backup LT and Mayes as backup RT always made the most sense to me. Let Erving backup the interior line as it’s easier to hide a bad player there. 

Well he is a problem we will have this season but we don't have to have that same problem next season.

Which, I have no idea, maybe he really does make that much of a difference in the locker room. If so....I mean....I guess it is what it is.

The value he offers is that with the ball in his hand, he's a freight train. That part of his game is hard to ignore.

But yeah, he can't seem to catch to save his life.

I'm not saying that at all. Young has great presence and it will absolutely help him avoid hits. No point ignoring the fact he's small. It's reality. We bragged about Cam being bigger than the linebackers tackling him. Can't change the laws of physics 

Man I totally agree wtf does his size have to do with escapability you either have it or you don’t no in between. The size remarks make no sense at all from what I just saw he was moving around like a young Brees just avoiding defenders and keeping his eyes downfield ready to make a play I couldn’t be more impressed with a rookie QB so far.

I would lose no sleep if we got rid of him. He's okay, but not reliable in the passing game. The only reason we even drafted the guy was from them whim of Mrs. Rhule.

    • I sold mine when Tepper installed those soccer seats in the end zone using the Marketplace. I retired and couldn't afford the season ticket price any more. Got back what I initially paid for them in 1995. From the email I got, my guess is a family who had end zone PSL's used the $ they got to give up their seats to buy mine. Don't give up @Waldo. The upgrades coming could do the same for you.
    • Don’t get me wrong, I love Koochie. I think he could be a star. But I’m not convinced Rod trusts him. And I realize my post was confusing. I meant based on the reports of swapping Necas for Ullmark or another goalie. If we’re going to trade for a goalie I would rather use draft picks instead of lowering the value of Necas.
    • You can make a decent case that most of the starters are at-least average. But depth-wise, its awful, maybe the worst in the NFL.  The only reason they could be a playoff team, is the awful NFC south and its collection of bad QBs and coaching staffs. That changed big time when cousins and Morris arrived to ATL. Now it would take a setback to cousins, in which he currently ready to play given all the stem cells and peptides stuff he has.  In past years there was always some elite talent leftd on the 7 win rosters. Like many know theres just dbrown and a huge ? in horn. If hunt was elite, phins would have tagged him. There's no Thomas Davis, Luke, Cam, Olsen, peppers, kalil, beason, gross, Jenkins, Smitty etc on the team. Brown is great and all, but sacks and pressure wise, he's not game changing. Panthers lack difference makers, young ones. You could make a weak case for clowney, but that ravens D is stacked.  Us fans just need to hope Dan Morgan can collect more young difference maker in the next 2-3 years. If Bryce isn't that guy, 4 years before this team can sniff the playoffs.  Honestly the panthers are due some luck as well.
