He wouldn't be starting if Shaq and Josey weren't out with injuries. You are expecting too much from a 3rd round rookie that was forced to start 5 games into his first season.

Well yeah. The hope was he would be worked in and be able to play if needed, etc. I know it is ahead of schedule for the green dot hat. 

One reason our d is so bad though is the middle guys weren't really a strength to start with and they both went at the same time.

I mean if he’s cheap and wants to stay I guess resign him, but I’m fully in the don’t draft RBs high and don’t give them big second contracts camp. Shelf life is so short for RBs and you can literally find serviceable backs in late rounds and FA for dirt cheap

A.  Why in the fug would he resign here

 

B  quit giving rbs 2nd contracts 

 

This isn't hard

I don't think he'll command that much money.  If we can get him for a couple million a year and have this position locked up for the next several years, why wouldn't we do this.

Anyone other than a rookie.  

Jewell looks like he is healthy again.  He would make sense.  He played under Evero for several years in Denver so he should be familiar with it.  It will also help Wallace to have a veteran like him playing beside him.

you are missing the point, if he is only going to cost 2 million why in the fug would he sign here?

No, I'm not missing the point.  Players almost always have a preference for the team that drafted them as long as the money is comparable.

Players do not give discounts as long as they can do better elsewhere. That's a fan idea that never happens.

Agree and my comment was why would he leave a sure thing if the money is comparable.  I don't think there will be a many teams that won't to pay him a big contract but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
