Darkhorse breakout player

True dark horses 

Offense: TMJ, showed some promise at back end of Wilks season. 

Defense: DJ Johnson

 

It would not surprise however if either of these players get cut during training camp hence the true longshot bet

You can’t go with a WR and ignore the QB but really, do people see anyone breaking out there? Maybe Brooks if the OL gels and he is healthy. 

 I’m just going with Corbett. He does the job. Problem solved. If the O works it is because the OL works. If this OL works, he is doing better than anyone here thought. 

I believe in Corbett.

Brings up a situation that I think will be the dam breaker. All this investment into WR, has to give.

They do this, and insert them into an ever changing environment where the QB is different, the OC is different, their position coach is different, and really the QB has historically in the Tepper years, been a project. Which one was not? 

As it happens the guys they hired have strong background with NFL WRs. So, good. Let’s see what we have.

It was/will be borderline negligent to just blindly go into the season with Corbett at C and no clear backup plan. Sure hope it works out.

You can say that, I can say that, but how do you know? Do you think these guys understand what they need? Or do they not get it? 

We don’t know for sure if they get it....

But, I want to assume Morgan understands pro football.

If he doesn't do well, we spent all that money on OL for literally nothing. He is one of the most critical elements of this offensive overhaul. If he gets injured or he doesn't pan out, you can go ahead and bank on the season being a mess.

yeah Corbertt being a big man co.ing back from back to back seasons where he suffered a ACL injury in 2022 then a MCL last season in 2023 definitely puts him in a higher risk category to possibly re-injure in 2024

I will never understand & maybe it's not meant for me to understand why the Panthers did not just  draft a center this year ?

Because counting on any player to successfully switch positions, particularly a position as key as center, and not having a clear backup plan is just stupid in any scenario. He played a number of preseason center snaps for Cleveland years ago, but coming off of there injuries makes it an even bigger question mark.

I'm not saying he will fail and I'm not saying that the decision is baseless. I'm just saying that they really should have planned another clear option.

It seemed like such an obvious hole in their OL plans that they just didn't address. I mean, they even hedged on LT because od those struggles but then they just decide an oft injured veteran with almost no experience at C is just gonna be the guy? Also, with literally almost no backup???

I couldn't wrap my head around that at all.

    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way to efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
    • Man even after 5-12 seasons they are able to produce hype videos.
