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.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB.

      All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
