I saw in the game thread, where fans are calling Chubba nothing special.  Not a feature back. Yet all he does is run through defenses. 

Time to stop talking down about him.  I knownwhy Stewart loves him. Same reason I do. 

I understand it, they’re wrong, but I get why some people don’t see him as a star. 
He’s not a “big play” guy.  He doesn’t have break away speed.  He’s not shifty or elusive and he’s not a bruising power back. 
Hes just good.  Hard nosed, consistent, lunch pail, grind it out back.

That won’t appeal to some fans but I fuggin love that poo.

I remember when Chuba was a JAG with bricks for hands. The dude has put in the work and developed into a top back in the NFL.

Chuba did have oven mitts, but he was never JAG. I've said it for years. He was solid when we didn't have a line. I said, it would be nice to see what he can do behind a real line? Now we know. 

" JAG"and "Chuba" don't belong in the same sentence. You hear me?

Was I hearing things today or did I catch the crowd saying “Chuuuuuu” after he would make a play?

If that’s becoming a thing, I would like that very much.

There were chants of Chuuuuubaaaa ringing through the stands today. It was glorious.

Chuba is not a game changer or breaker but he has become a complete back. He runs downhill and hard. 

He can now catch the ball.

He can block.

And he has a constant running motor even after getting paid. 

I was one of those that thought his first few years he was a jag. But he has grown and impressed me and I'm happy the panthers signed him to an extension.

He doesn't have the size of a big bruiser, although his running style is very blunt. He has great balance and vision.   Which is the most important things in my eyes to ANY running back.  He's not fast, yet he consistently breaks 10 plus yard runs. 20 plus yard runs.  

The dude is a load. Add to the fact he can catch out of the backfired.

This is a back you absolutely build an offense around.

He still needs help. 

Can never ever have enough good running backs.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
