Some very rosy takes for a backup RB in his first NFL game versus an elite rushing defense. 

I damn sure hope that you guys are right.

I have no real expectations. I think he will play like a dude coming off an injury who hasn’t played a down of football in 53 weeks and playing in his first ever NFL game.  Needs to get hit and needs live action game contact.  I want him to get in rhythm and get comfortable with assignments. 
 

If he balls out great but in no way am I expecting some sort of breakout performance.

You are taking it out of context. I was going there because my first post wasn't negative enough.

But you are right I'm not happy Panther football wise (why would I be?). Though, I am looking forward to seeing how he does. Because he could do my first estimate or my second. 

If you take the receptions based on bad Bryce all the throws to him will be behind the LOS, and well defended. Meanwhile they are smothering our run game so nothing great there. 

 

I was just being a smart ass, sir. 

 

Sorry.

Eeeh 

 

Rookie running backs are plug and play.  

 

That said it's the #1 rush defense

Feels like they're being extremely cautious with him.

Looked like he was grabbing/scratching at one his legs after that I think total 2nd carry he got all game. Could still be a mental thing, and for some reason we completely ignored the run game almost all day even though we were keeping it close and had some decent field position

    • The panthers are such a trash organization at this point that all the huddle can do is argue about which panthers team is historically the worst…good times. 
    • Well, hope they're not worried about a torn Labrum or Rotator Cuff, as someone who went through that myself, I know those don't have anything show up on X-Rays but from the MRI, so this is kinda a nothing update, hope it's not a tear or his season is already over if they decide to do surgery now. Which is basically what would be needed to get him to 100% for the start of next season's training camp if it's a labrum.  If he plays the season with it and then does surgery, he's not going to be ready for camp and probably not the start of the season either.
    • I always try to not pay much attention to a team’s preseason win/loss record. The 1982 Washington and 2021 LA Rams both lost every game in the preseason and went on to win the Super Bowl, whereas the 2008 Detroit Lions and 2017 Cleveland Browns both won every game in reason and went on to lose every regular season game. There’s many examples of teams that lose in preseason that go on to have good seasons, but equally there are teams that lose in preseason and that continues in the regular season. Which will we be?  I think our floor is a handful of wins, while our ceiling will probably be around the 9-10 win mark. The latter will require significant improvement from the whole team and coaching staff, and will also need Bryce to play like the QB we drafted him to be. I want to be optimistic and predict a winning season, but it’s really difficult as a Panthers fan!
