If running to pass really works we got market cornered!!!

If that’s the case then we wasted a pick on Etienne. Personally, I’d like 700, 600, and 400 yards from three guys because everyone will be fresh in February. 

How so? Dowdle is on a one year deal. If we get great production cheaply while Etienne gets to learn and develop so he steps in seamlessly next year, I'd say that's a win for everyone.

I don't think so. we signed Dowdle to a 1 year contract and know we are not going to pay 2 RBs big contracts. Brooks could end up great or he could do nothing. Etienne was a 2026 and beyond move, we have Chuba, Etienne, and either Brooks or another cheap RB.

If Brooks ends up not playing another down for us, does he replace the Eric Shelton?

Yeah, "Thunder and Lightning" were the duo for the Titans. White and Johnson maybe? 

yeah, lendale white and chris johnson (4.24). they had that name cornered before we williams and stewart could take it. so they went with double trouble. i think what the titans had going on with those two fit thunder and lightning better...that year anyways.

then lendale stopped drinking tequila, lost weight, and fizzled out.

If Bryce goes below 4 TDs passing/game he has failed. No exceptions…

What sport are you watching?

Manning's record season of 55 tds in 2013 was less than 3.5 tds a game.

I think the first time I heard that was Bettis and Brooks at ND. Then, pretty sure White and Reggie Bush used it at USC. Of course that's college not pros.

    • Aho…come out and prove me wrong boy. 
    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
