Who here knows the typical recovery time for an MCL sprain? Speculation, but if that's the best-case scenario with Gettis' knee, I'm curious how long that could sideline him.

Coming from a guy who had suffered a complete ACL/MCL tear, can tell you that dependent on the severity, it's generally a 1-month recovery.

So if it's just the MCL and not serious he'll be back by the regular season.

Good for Clausen. Sounds like he has had a good day at TC. I've high hopes for all of our qbs in belief that at least one of them will have a good year.

Man, I hope Gettis has a speedy recovery, whatever the full extent of his injury may be.

I offer up some perspective, even if you hate it.

Thank you for the support on Twitter and the site. It's not much, but doing what we can while managing several projects at camp. Appreciate it.

Just checked out your page....nice! Will you be doing anything after training camp with your site or is it just for training camp?

Thx, Mike.

The idea is to keep it going. I have access to camp this year through my gig in radio and as a contributing reporter in the area. My time is split between the site, filing reports to various papers and working interviews for radio.

The site will continue, and will evolve with video, podcasts, and reporting on football across both Carolinas (ACC, SEC, High School). Panthers will be a mainstay.

Happy to give updates when I can, and thank you and the huddle fam here for the support.

Can someone translate this into English?

"All supporters of this fine establishment known as the Carolina Panthers football club need to post in a style that is more suited according to how the club depth chart is going to appear on a week to week basis this season. It is important that you understand the nuances of such a complicated game as football and it is of utmost importance that you understand the nuances of your team before you rush to judgment and make such uneducated, uninformed posts. Having seen Mr. James Clausen throw a football in a game environment, it is my opinion that he is completely incapable of effectively being a starting quarterback, and anyone who disagrees with my completely unbiased, educated, informed, and respected opinion is simply not willing to face the real truth about his obviously inferior skills as a field general."

Great job.You reported the facts as you saw them which a welcome relief from reading some of this childhood garbage that some of these guys post.

Damn.. if Clausen could play like he is tonight for the rest of the season, then Cam might get a full year to sit the bench and learn.

If he can play like he did....Cam might be traded.

If he played like last year...he should be relegated to the Pop Warner League.

I am interested in seeing JC this season....with a real coach, better weapons, and more experience.

He may surprise a lot of people.

I still believe/hope eith Anderson or JC plays well and we are able to let Cam continue to learn and develop. Still think it is the best long-term solution for the team and Cam.

    • 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
