2 RBs likely aren’t going to be ready for camp loads.  And you can’t put too much on Hubbard who is the best RB we got going into the season.

Don't cut Sanders. We'll actually take a cap hit by doing so. We should try to trade him for picks or a player.

Most of that investment is Sanders, and I doubt that mistake is repeated again with the new staff.

I mean, we also just used a second round pick and now signed Penny. That's not a tiny investment, although not an Atlanta Falcons level of investment either.

Seems like we are doubling down on some 1990'd era football. Interested to see how it works out

In a pass happy league we decide to draft a RB in the 2nd with players that fit a need staring us at the face. Now we go out and sign another capable RB.

Only if Penny makes it through TC uninjured.

should of just kept this dude.  I mean, he actually can play 90s era football.  

Canales had the worst rush O and ran into fewer loaded boxes than almost every team in the entire NFL

Yeah, all of this is starting to look like another episode of square pegs in round holes. That really does seem to be a Tepper staple.

  It might be more about matching your scheme to your players and executing better than the opponent. Or in the Panthers’ case executing well enough to keep it a game with a much better team. 

With this quarterback, the offense is going to have to be hybrid as poo. Number one, it is still best to protect young quarterbacks with a stout running game and offensive line. Number two, our young quarterback needs more help than most top overall picks. So, running game, come one down.

I don’t think just having those pieces in place mean the passing game can’t be creative, or that the run can't be more influenced by modern principles.

i still believe, with or without wilks, it was a big mistake not using what he built in half a season as a foundation.
