Offense


davos

Recommended Posts

At this point, patience is a virtue everyone...so let's take a look at the offense:

QB: Newton- :jc: -Null

RB: DeAngelo-Stewart-Goodson-Sutton

FB: Fiammetta

WR: Smith-Gettis-LaFell-Pilares-Edwards-Jamorris Warren-Darvin Adams

TE: Shockey-Barnidge-(Rosario?)-Hartsock

T: Gross, Otah, Zeimba, Gary Will

C: Kalil

G: Wharton, Geoff, Bernadeau, Duke

So, really we're looking at getting an RG and maybe a WR.

The thing with WR is tricky because we don't know (1) What Chud thinks of our current guys & (2) the possibility of blocking a potential pro bowler in Gettis by bringing in an Edwards type. It appears that we want a big crop of young WR that can give Newton options with Chud making them studs

So, do you think we're close, far, or are just a few players away from a competitive NFC South squad?

Agreed. We have the best backfield in football HANDS DOWN! Fiametta needs to step up again this year! Our WR core granted is young (except smitty) but extremely talented with the right coaching the Panthers will have one of the best WR core shortly and for sometime. Plus our O-line not much needs to b said bout them..............they're goooood. Dont sleep on Shockey either the dude is a beast and a good mentor to Barnidge. So its pretty much up to Ham Newton or Jimmy Slaussen.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
