Also, this was on that rotoworld page:

Coach John Fox revealed that LB Landon Johnson spent Saturday night in the hospital after suffering groin and hip injuries in Carolina's playoff loss.

Fox said the injuries aren't serious, "just...a couple of muscle pulls that were pretty painful." Johnson only played on special teams in his first year as a Panther. He's due a $2 million salary in 2009 and may be a cap casualty.

I read that story, but missed this little tidbit. I could him ending up behind Conner/Anderson after the next camp is over and being cut, especially if the injury lingers. Anderson in basically the same guy.

This signing raised a question that I had never really considered: who is our backup fullback should Hoover go down? You would almost think that, being a run first offense and Hoover being such a good blocker, we would have a dedicated backup.

Hoover had a great year and is a hell of a run blocker, but let's face it, he's not getting any younger. I like this signing if only so that we can get someone in behind Hoover who could benefit from learning behind such an experienced veteran.

goings or rosario would be our back-up FB.

i do think we need a beastly FB to replace hoover when the time comes. carolina is one of the last teams to use a traditional FB like they did in the 80s, and it usually works very well.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
