Chud's one-dimensional offense

It's just a different run game. The holes will open for a more traditional run game but the short dump passes to our backs and screens and swings are all by design. It's more or less just an extension of our more traditional run game. Our backs had over 160 all purpose yards today, quitcherbitchen.

I don't care how many dimensions it has. It's putting points on the board and setting NFL records. Iron out the wrinkles over the course of the season and let the young guys grow into it, and it's all good.

I think a lot of people are stuck in the "pound the ball" mentality and can't fathom that the running game isn't the focus. That's not the Panthers anymore.

Lack of usage and personel in the FB department is one aspect. That aside, I think Chud is really trying to get Cam's growing pains (not much so far) out of the way early. I don't think he's so adverse to the run as he's showing right now. We can run the ball if given half the chance.

I can't complain over 18 yards?

Records don't win games and for all the passing yardage, we haven't managed 24+ points yet.

Say it with me.....'balance'.

psstt....We're two weeks in.

Okay, then the 400 yard games are a fluke then, right? What you are saying is it will eventaully balance out. Whew, I'm so comforted now by knowing that.

( Oh, good luck telling wagon that 400 yard games will start coming to an end though).

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
