“I thought going in, with the way I performed I’d definitely get an opportunity to play,” Goodson said. “Some things happened. I didn’t get the opportunity I thought I should have. Then I got injured, and it really didn’t go the way I wanted last year.”

He fumbled his chance away

[PantherBrew]

I understand a competitors mentality.

But does he think that he is going to get touches over elite players?

[TylerDurden]

No use in crying over spilled milk. If he goes in and shows out, he should be the #2 back in Oakland, and in a much better situation to show what he can do. I would love to see him excel out there.

He has always had fumble issues. Rivera clearly recognized that in camp and didn't want to see it ....Goodson isn't a rookie. Armanti even fielded his punts cleanly in year 2.....Goodson should of done the same

[PanthersAlv]

The way that article is written, it seems as if he blames the coaching staff change for his disappearing act. he fumbled a decent amount. But, he was good when he didn't.

Tho that's a huge issue! lol and well, when the Panthers got Cam, running was at a minimum when it came to play calling for the first half of the season really. DWill and JStew didn't get many calls then either.

I want to see what he can do in Oakland. I think he can break out there if given the chance.

[PhillyB]

he had a good run during the latter half of the 2010 season... one of the lone bright spots. i always liked the guy. i hope he gets his chance to start.

[Darth Biscuit]

I agree with Philly... he was good in stretches and I really liked him, but he was simply the odd man out. I hope he does well in Oak.

If he can break his fumbling habits then he could be a good player. Still he was in a log jam here and does not fit in ST like tolbert will.

i was high on Goody when the Panther's drafted him. He could still be a stat stuffer in so many areas. Yeah, he had fumblitis which, umm, in football is like having chronic sea sickness while in the Coast Guard.

I saw one quote by Riveria about how Goody was content with being #3. Not sure how to read that.

Now he gets a shot to be the ghost of Tyrone Wheatley in Oak.

[PantherPhann89]

I wish him the best...

[OchoNueve]

Got to admit that he showed flashes of something special when he had the opportunity, but he didn't deserve any more playing time than he got with the thorough-bred stable of RB's we already have. His fumble issues were a concern, but to think that is the sole reason he was in Rivera's doghouse is pretty simple-minded. I hope he does well in OAK, just not well enough to make this look like a stupid move for us. We need Bruce Campbell to be the beast his potential suggested he can be.

[EMSMedic79]

He'll do fine in Oakland... no reason to look back at Carolina. He was done here.

[CarolinaNCSU]

He's probably going to be the starter in Oakland once McFadden gets his annual injury...and I hope he shows out. He can be good, but no way would I give him touches over DWill and JStew...and now Tolbert.
