Gross: Panthers players have installed a good portion of the offense during workouts


The Saltman

Recommended Posts

Jordan Gross, who helped organize and pay for the event along with fellow offensive lineman Travelle Wharton, called the workouts “incredibly successful.”

“We worked a lot on the playbook and we got of lot of work in with installing the new offense,” Gross said Wednesday. “We’re not where we would be if we had coaches working with us, but the guys will be walk away with a good familiarity of the playbook and some of the things we plan to do this season.”

surprised this hasn't been posted.

like he said, I'm sure it's nothing compared to practicing with coaches looking on and directing things, but in a situation such as this, when there's no contact between team and players, any amount of progress you can make is gravy. they're still going to be up against it when the lockout ends anyways.

good to see Gross and Wharton stepping up and providing leadership and setting an example.

Smitty says he is very very impressed with Cam.

Clausen was not mentioned, at any time.

If he were, people on here would say they're just trying to let him down easy. If he wasn't, they look at it like he's not there. I know the guy struggled last year but it's still like he plowed some of your wives or girlfriend or blow-up Zod dolls or something. Give it a rest.

That was actually very funny. While we all have heard about that, it never registered that he didn't ever mention Clausen. I'm not really surprised by this, more of the fact that I didn't think along those lines and I usually do. Good point bro.

    • 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.
