“He's worked hard. He's just never been able to get over the hump,” Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said. “Then he's had concurrent issues. He's been listed as questionable the last two weeks with a back injury.

“We met with Jeff over the last couple of days and decided that the best thing to do was to put him on IR so he could concentrate on strengthening the knee and essentially taking an 11-week loss for long-term, future gain.”

Quote:

“There's no recipe on how long it takes for an injury to come back, especially a knee injury to a person of Jeff's size and a big offensive tackle. Every individual, every injury is different. So I think it's hard to go into length of time,” Hurney said.

Hurney said not being able to rehab at the team's facility during the lockout also might have affected Otah's recovery. But Hurney said he thinks the long-term outlook for Otah, 25, remains positive.

“I think we're confident and I think he's confident that he can work and get it strong, and the future will be bright.”

Well thanks for making me look like a jackass for defending you.

No, you are making yourself look like a jackass becuase you are being a jackass.

How about somebody comes and rearranges your knee and we all make fun of you and call you a pussy?

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO

      The season is over, and we're going to get clowned on by Mayfield and Darnold before it's over.

      Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years

      Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
