I've tried to tell you guys about 30

Some of you, all you do is talk sh¡t about Chuba, but all he does is do his job. No, he can't run through walls, but he can run through even some small homes. I said it last year, and Boobie Sanders did nothing to change my mind, Hubbard is our most explosive back. If he gets into the second level, good things generally happen. He's an excellent complement to any RB room in the league. I would tell you to stop underrating him, but you probably won't. Meanwhile, Chuba will keep on chugging, then breaking off explosive runs to move the chains.

Hubbard is fine if there is a hole where it should be as he can hit the hole hard. If the hole isn’t there he flounders like the 4th and 1 where he turned his back and got nothing. He’s complementary/a backup and that’s it. If he’s your starter against a good D, you’re in trouble as we saw last year.

Think you said it best - he’s a good complementary back. He’s good at finding holes to sprint through. Our problem is we need a lead back with a good blend of power and speed and Sanders ain’t it.

    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
