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.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
