Even if he's been cleared to play you let him practice at least another week from that point on.

Missing all this time of full practice means it will take a little bit of time for him to get up to full speed, and since the defense is actually playing pretty good right now, we may put him there too early and undermine what good thing we got going.

Our D is by far the least of our problems this year. And no point risking screwing it up now that those guys are finally clicking for a guy that may not be up to game speed, even though he will eventually be a better option. We need to make sure he IS the better option, now after his injury, before we play him and not because he would have been the better option then.

If the season is salvageable, I say do it. We need Beason back in the middle, I just hate him being out of his comfort zone, watching Frank Gore rip off 10-12 yards per run.

Agree with this 100%. If we are already out of the playoff hunt(I have not given up hope yet, the NFC is pure poo) then we should rest him and allow him to get back to full health. Otherwise, i say we play him cause I miss seeing Beason fug poo up in the middle.

If thomas davis gets back to the point he is cleared to play...how do you not allow him to just to have beason back in the middle full time.

This is nothing aginst conner..he's played great....but beason in the middle is still the trump card.

I'd want TD to be fully healed so he won't go for a 3rd acl tear.

Put him back in if he's ready. That's up to him and the medical staff. If the medical staff says he's g to g, fug it. That'll just make the d that much scarier. Beason NEEDS to be in the middle. Put the best players on the field, period. Conners been good and he's gonna be a really good back up when Beason moves back to the middle. two words, "trade bait".

Putting him back on the field this year would just be one more stupid mistake for this team.

This message is for you and everyone else that thinks this way.

This is the NFL. In case ya hadn't noticed, injuries are a fact of life in the NFL.

People are going to get hurt. Some will even end their playing careers. If ya don't like that fact, go watch tennis. Maybe that will be more your style.

If davis is cleared to play, and looking good enough in practice to start him again...it is a no brainer for davis to start again, putting beason back in the middle full time.

Being cautious isn't going to change the fact that davis could get reinjured.

When he is cleared, get him back on the field.

If he's cleared in time, he'll play.

1. Because he'll want to do so.

2. He basically needs too, He has to show the Panthers and the other teams that he still has it.

3. Going off of #2, he's in a contract year as well.

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)

      looks like the Lions and Bangles should forget about the playoffs, trade everyone they can, and start over.
