I'm making this thread just to officially end this nonsense, he had a very bad game while he was still coming off of a head/neck injury, it happens, gamble and marshall have had the same skids, godfrey has also had some blow coverages this year as well

I don't want him gone, he's a good player for us, he might need to restructure his contract to make room for our big signings this offseason, but in no way do I want him gone

thinking that C.J Wilson or Marshall could replace him isn't clear thinking, it's just overactive whining and bitching when things aren't exactly perfect during a blowout win, get over it

Don't want him gone just want he and Marshall to start switching roles...the steelers just did it with Deshea Townsend and Bryant McFadden and you can see what it did for them.

I remember somebody making a point on here about people on the huddle constantly comparing situations on this team to situations on other teams that are clearly not related in any way whatsoever. Well...

I voted for YES. Screw it!

Football is a funny game. One weekend you're a dud, the next you're a hero. We'll see how Lucas bounces back against the Broncos.

At this point --- I am upset with him & will say, if the right replacement comes along to take over Marshall's spot and we can move Richard to Lucas' spot, I wouldn't mind releasing Lucas and freeing up our cap. At this point, he isn't going to be worth the $5 million he's due next year. If he doesn't reconstructure his contract, I won't loose any sleep if he's gone.

Last night, Lucas was sitting around on plays, when he should have been covering much better.

Smith ought to knock some sense in him!!! I mean, sit down & talk. :)

seriously.... our secondary is in a funk, but no need to ship out lucas. i've never been a big fan of the "what have you done for me lately" mentality. as for godfrey, his getting thrown into the fire his rookie year will pay dividends in the long term. he and harris will be sick for the next 4-7 years.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By TD alt · Posted

      Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.

      Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
