Why would he play even if he was healthy.  No point 

Frank said that all starters would contribute in some fashion in this game. That's is if they are healthy of course.  You would have to ask Frank about the logic behind that.  He said that as a completely new team they all need some more reps in the new system to get ready for the season.  That includes the coaching staff.

I would assume the logic would largely be tied to trotting out a rookie QB week 1 in a brand new offense.   Bryce Young needs reps.  And you want to protect him by giving him real players. 

Last #1 overall pick in Carolina played in all 4 preseason games.

Really? That's a ton of muscle to add even for a professional athlete.

Fitt said "20-25lb in muscle this offseason" and he was saying it with a shocked face when he was telling the story. Said that Chuba was barely recognizeable. Most of these players lose a lot of weight during season bc of the types of training, and switching to a different regimen especially one focusing on muscle growth isn't that hard to believe to be done if you have the frame for it.... especially if you are 24 y/o.

All of Hubbard’s experience in hand, it’s worth noting: this likely won’t be the same Hubbard. He spent most of this offseason, he said, working on gaining weight that won’t go away down the stretch of a 18-week season.

“I’ve definitely gained weight,” Hubbard said. “Just working on getting stronger. These last couple seasons, throughout the season, I’ve lost quite a bit of weight as the season has gone on. And I got a little slimmer, looking like a receiver at times (laughs).

“So I definitely said I have to bulk up a little bit. Obviously still be fast and explosive and all that, so I’ve worked on it. It’s been really good so far.”

 

Thank you! Well, damn, I’m ready to see him this weekend now.

Sit him till week 1.

and people were raging because I wanted better depth in the backfield a couple weeks ago.  We got a pretty valuable dude at QB that is going to be repping all preseason.    Hope Hubbard's pass pro has improved.

Hard to believe he had that bad high ankle just a couple years ago.  Then sitting behind CMC, and to top it off, Fhules coaching.

It's not too hard to imagine that Chubba could turn into a productive 1b in the right system.  We certainly (hopefully) have a legit O Line, and now a QB that will make defenses respect the passing game (hopefully), I think he could be in for a decent role in this offense.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
