I read 'swelling in the knee' yesterday as the reason his fat ass was not playing.

This after reading 'how good he felt' and 'how glad he was to be back'.

I believe he's in a contract year so I'd expect him to be out there; will tell you this, if he is not out there the next to last exhbition game or the opening game, he'll be toast again this year.

If there is one player that they needed to backup it is him.

Don't care how good someone is, if they are not on the field, it does not matter.

Said it last year, will say it again, a 24 year old with meniscus issues is dead meat in the NFL at his position.

Can add OT to the needs of CB, DT and 2nd WR.

I always wonder how people come up with these deadlines; "if he's not out there by the next to the last exhibition game or the game before my mothers birthday" etc.

I'm pretty sure he's a hell of a player when healthy and the staff are doing all they can to keep him healthy for the games that matter.

Don't panic till you really have a reason but I understand your concern.

Do you live under a rock with no internet? They were talking about swelling in his knee well over a week ago.

Try and keep up.

It's possible that they are just being extra extra cautious with him, hell I would be. I mean look at everyone that hasn't played. Smitty has a cut finger so they dont play him, Beason is probably doesn't feel like playing, so he's not out there. Stewart only comes out for regular season games. Gamble has a cold, so he's not playing.

If it drags on into the regular season a few games then I'll get concerned.

      Deebo wants out of SF, and our current odds are high

      By frankw · Posted

      This is from 5 months ago. It was one or the other. Trade for one or draft one. We apparently called the Jets about Wilson. We also talked to the Seahawks about Metcalf. Drafting our own guy was the best course of action given the required investment. Regardless now is the time for Bryce Young to produce. We are fourth amongst all teams in cap spending on the OL. Back to back first round picks at WR and multiple young TE draft picks now. Very solid and respectable backfield. New pieces across the defense. The time is now.

      Get ready for ‘SUPER MEN: The inside story of the 2015 Carolina Panthers’

      That was just the worst time to have their worst game of the season. One key deal was the broncos guess the Panthers would NOT change any plays or flow to the game. Another key point overlook that bronco defense was truly one of the best in the NFL history. It was the best defense the Panthers faced that year, by far. They were not ready for it, but broncos were ready for the Panthers. Mix in that bad luck, poor refs showcase, and this is the golden boys last game........ Panthers needed to win by 20 and the broncos defense was not going to allow that.  Panthers were the favorites and I believe they also thought that it was going to easier than them destroying NFC playoff teams as they marched to the SB. I've heard darin Gantt say the play calls were to give remmers help, but for some reason the team never did it. During the year they never had that problem, so maybe never practiced giving help via TE/RB, or WR chip. Cam was superman that year, no need for any adjustments...... Until you meet a legendary defense with studs at all levels, Think about it, Peyton was throwing wingless dunks for the whole season, the defense had to carry his corpse to the SB. That's how good they were, not many defense are able to get to the playoffs and win a SB without decent QB play. If you recall the beginning of that defense took Tim Teblows and his non-throwing arse to the playoffs couple years before. That's insane the level of defense needed to overcome.
