Last pre-season game

I know that most of the time the starters really dont play that much the final pre-season game, and sometimes they dont play at all. With some of the struggles we have been having on offense do you think our first team O will play a few downs, or maybe even a quater? Or will the 2nd teamers play most of the game?

I'm not all that worried about the O because its preseason and key players are out blah blah blah, but no TD's all pre-season is sort of disappointing. I figure this thread will be a nice little break from "Moore sux11!!!1111!" threads. Go Panthers.

Yeah, with the age of the team and the "struggles" I wouldn't be surpised if the offence plays a little longer than usual. But keep DWill out and get the starting defence out pretty quickly....they have proven themselves and deserve a little rest, because they are gonna get a workout during the season.

I think Moore needs 2 series at least. Clausen needs a Qtr or more, to get more game experience. (Is the writing on the wall for Cantwell, I noticed they even had Pike carrying the clipboard Sat. night.) Cantwell and Pike split the rest of the game, I'm thinking Pike to the PS and Cantwell released.

I would like to see Gettis and Guy get some time with the first and second teams, Gettis made some nice grabs and and showed he can take a shot and hold on to the ball.

No way is Carolina going in to the season with only 2 QBs on the roster. Pike will probably go to the PS while Cantwell is the #3. Remember the #3 QB is not included in the active 45-man game day roster.

They are not included on the 45 man active day roster, but they are on the 53 man limit.

AE could be the emergency 3rd QB, while Pike or Cantwell to the PS...with the other being released.

Saves a slot on the 53 man roster...needed to possibly carry 6 WR's and a KO Specialist.

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
