...you could count on Fox to run off tackle the first play of EVERY game. Chud enjoys making it fun for the players, and I could see him getting creative tonite.

I'd love to see him line up Dwill, Tolbert, and Stew showing triple option. Fake the belly to Tolbert and the toss to Dwill, take a step back and hit Olsen running a streak down the seam. If they catch the Texans being too aggressive and complete this for good yardage, it should set the tone for a better running game the rest of the night.

there's two things i really don't want to see in preseason games.

1- starters get much playing time at all. none is preferred.

B- playbook get opened up significantly. keeping it closed is preferred.

save the players the team relies on and the playbook for games that actually count.

i want to see the panthers play just as much as anyone, but i want it to matter when they play. i can wait a few more weeks to see what they have in store and if it takes away a chance that someone gets hurt in a meaningless game by some clown trying to make a name for himself and earn a roster spot or by a player we rely on not being able to keep from giving 100% in a game that doesn't matter and gets hurt in the process.

I dont understand..."If" we have a Triple Option...Why not show it in pre-season?

We could show it on the first week but then you still got 15 other opponents who have time to adjust to it...You mines well practice in pre-season then to wait until the regular season and risk fumbling or something...

All I want is NO INJURIES

      I figured as much. Hopefully he's just resting up and will be ready for round 3 (if we make it that far.)  Sucks to see. Hes been our best defender (besides Slavin) in the playoffs so far.

      I've never bought into the idea. There's just too much at stake, even for front office people. Jobs are lost, trust is lessened, lives are altered, reputations are damaged and more. Throw in that the average front office person isn't as young as the average player. They may not have ten years ahead of them to salvage their careers. Any given year could be their last. The only person not guaranteed to suffer some direct form of consequence from losing is the owner, and even there you still have problems (fan reaction, team reputation, revenue, etc). You've also got massive egos in play on that front so it can get personal. Mind you, I do accept that there are "fire sales" in order to build for the future, but even those have consequences. They don't exactly guarantee success either. Poorly run teams often just wind up in the same circumstance a few years down the road. Sorry gus, but my tinfoil hat just hasn't fit me for quite a while.
