"We had three receivers dressed for the game. If he (Jarrett)'s one of the ones over on the sideline, I could see how you might say that. But he was active for the game. To get a uniform, I don't think that shows a lack of confidence."

Just three? Me no likey that, Fox. Sure, we have TEs and all...but still, I feel safer with four dressed out.

I know thie Panthers need help at WR,,,,, but it is not like they have had decent QB play. All this if Breeze, or Brady, or Rodgers, etc were on this team they would suck just as bad is b.s. If there was any good QB play and better protection by the o-line - I dont think our WR's would look that bad. There are guys getting open, and even the few times Jarrett was on the field he was open as well. On one play or two of them Moore just scrambled out and ran out of bounds.

That all being said I wish our WR was better, I just think some or more of the blame needs to be on Moore. Maybe we will see a difference with Clausen.

    • I suppose it depends on what you mean as 'elite'. I typically mean someone that can play with lower level pieces around them and still win. There are very few of those. 
    • It would obviously be incredible if Brooks came back and just ran away with the job on his opportunities like Rico Dowdle did last year. But any Panthers fan that has been around the block knows better than to go ahead and make plans for that. Brooks has missed a ton of not just playing time but meaningful early career growth in a league that has increasingly devalued the position from an investment standpoint beyond one or two superstars. There's really not any comparison to look back on that lines up with the current iteration of the league at least not favorably. The key thing that this RB room has going for them is our investment in the OL. The highest paid OL in the league two years in a row paired with our staff should make it easier for just about any RB to get into open running lanes. But that is also anything but a given considering our OL was largely middle of the pack last year. In the end it might all be a moot point anyways if we again struggle to establish a viable passing attack.
    • I don't have him making the team and I think same goes for the staff, but they are hopeful for a PS spot.    I mean of course I'd like 3 all-world at RB and every spot, just doesn't work that why. Panthers normally carry 3. dan always talk up Etienne, even called him a future star.....I think Brooks will be fine as a 2 with health pls.....  Chubba can carry a seasons load as lead dawg.    Its fine, I mean backup OGs or CB is much higher on my worry scale(Id even put QB room as worse than RB room too...)
