We finally get to see Brooks this week

[strato]

I'm looking forward to seeing him for the first time for the eyeball test against pros. And this is a very good defense so it should be a test alright.

Not sure what's so exciting about an RB2 rookie coming off injury aside from being drafted too high. Maybe this will jinx it

[waveslayer]

it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan.

We shall see...

I'm pretty excited about it. I think he kills it.

And seriously, fug you injury asshats

I mean, I don't think he was wishing injury on him. Just saying it would be a very Panthers thing for that to happen.

I could see it. Sometimes you just look at that black cat and wonder when things happen to us.

The way I see that cat, it is waiting for a chance wherever it can see one. It would be glad to help us speak something into existence.

If we had the power to speak things into existence then our streak of Super Bowl wins would still be going and Cam would be the GOAT.

Lol. Same thing we have always been during the Tepper era.

Game one against a very good defense, how about just look better than Miles Sanders? Let's start there.

There is a black cat, or there isn't. If there is, it keeps its ears open.

I expect a rookie RB to usually take it sideways and “dance” in the backfield longer than you would want.

Brooks seems like he has good vision though and the o-line should give him clear holes to aim for. 
 

Chiefs game might be a rough debut but I hope he’s able to get some touches. 

This is what I like about him. Constant forward momentum, no hesitation. Instead of a stutter step he hits a new gear when he jukes. Rare find out of any RB these days let alone a rookie.

I think we are gonna see him take Sanders' snaps, basically. If he doesn't look better than that, whoa.

If Brooks gets injured then it just is what it is. It wouldn't make the top 20 disasters of the season. Also, he's a RB. They do get injured at higher rates than most positions.

I don't think that will happen immediately. Canales seems to like Sanders for some reason.
