The decision to put D.Will on IR

Steve Reed brought this up in his blog last night:

–Speaking of RBs, I’m still trying to figure out why the Panthers put DeAngelo Williams and not Tyrell Sutton on injured reserve. Williams was supposedly going to miss “two or three weeks” and the Panthers needed a roster spot so they put him on injured reserve. Sutton has missed three weeks with an ankle sprain. No offense to Sutton, but if I’m going to wait three weeks for one of those two guys I’m waiting for Williams.

I assume they want to see what they have given outside of Williams, but I can't imagine D.Will would be pleased with being on the shelf for the rest of the year if he has the ability to keep playing, which could harm potential contract negotiations after the season, if there are any...

I could see this working both ways... As in we plan on letting him go, or we are keeping him as reasons to put him on IR. Hard to tell which one makes more sense right now.

I will say this, if DWill is pissed about the move, he's really good at hiding it, because I've seen him on the sidelines several times since being put on IR smiling, cheering guys on, and dapping guys up...

I don't know...

Yeah Im fine with resting D'lo. As far as him going somewhere else, I just cant see it. He is a model player and the best possible type of guy to have in the lockeroom. You just dont trade those guys.

Im still good with keeping all 3. Sign em all longterm as far as Im concerned. . . and get Goodson an eyepatch.

I've been on chat with him a few times over at doubletrouble3428.com and haven't seen any indication that he's pissed about the move...

He's not afraid to say what's on his mind during those chat sessions, so if he was pissed about the move I'd expect he would have let something slip that would have given some indication.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
