I don't think Vincent injury might have been that bad. I think the team just knew he wasn't going to recover in time and they desperately needed that roster spot.

The bye week is more important than people would think with how our O-line came out of that game. I'm glad we got it because now it gives them enough time for them to recover. Otah being taken out because of a toe injury probably tells you that it was just precautionary.

i dunno... he's been really integral to our running game and has been very good in pass protection as well. i guess groins are a slow heal injury, ie: hartwig a couple years ago... :(

I meant the injury itself might not have been bad, not his absence. I'm definitely not going to take anything away from the guy. He was a very important part of our O-line and I wish we still had him. :(

i gotcha man! i knew what you were saying. i'm just wondering if it wasn't that bad and he's been so important then why couldn't they just wait for him to heal. i guess the healing process for the groin is really protracted or it was worse than originally reported.

totally sucks.

This was the same injury that knocked him out for about a year before he came to us so I guess they didnt want to risk another surgery so they IRed him.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
