Mike Tolbert is our best RB

Perhaps but Stewart > Tolbert > Willaims becomes = Tolbert>Stewart>Williams when /$

Oh I agree....

With what Chud does...paying a RB like Tolbert bringing in a cheap RB that fits this scheme and investing all that other cash on D, WR/TE or pass blocking OL would have been ideal.

But that is all hindsight. We didn't know what Chud would be doing.....but you could argue Hurney should know

People keep saying Tolbert is a good fullback, I'm not sure I've seen anything that warrants that.

Those are people who haven't watched him in recent years....Tolbert has been more RB than FB. he can get the job done at FB.....but he is just a fat body RB.

other than rumbling after a wide open catch he looked like hot garbage.

He didn't even finish that run, he ducked out of bounds like a p*ssy.

Thread gets 3/10 mostly for the use of teh gif.

Time was not on our side. Game situation called for him going out of bounds to stop the clock

Get a clue

We were down 2 scores with 5 minutes on the clock on our own 11...he took a screen (poorly thrown and sniffed out by the S) 20 yards and stopped the clock.

You interpret that was a wide open play where he was afraid to get hit?

The safety was out of position and tried to hold him. Once he made the catch he was in the open.

The Panthers weren't in hurry up.

I believe my assessment was accurate. He could have finished the run on the way out if it was necessary to get out but a) it wasn't, and b- he obviously didn't want to get hit.

    • For Bryce’s obvious shortcomings (bad pun), there is upside to his game. This isn’t being a homer or apologists, but I like to consider myself fair in criticism.  He’s far tougher than I ever thought he’d be. I really thought homie would have been broken in half by now. I don’t know how he’s not, but he’s not.  He is prone to turning the ball over early in games which digs a huge hole the team is not built to come back from, but dude DOES come up with crucial first down in crucial situations. It’s NEVER pretty, but he just kind of has the shining. He gets bailed out LOTS, and the team still loses games because of him, but he’s a bit of an enigma. He’s a turnover machine that is clutch in big moments.  He’s a smart/elusive cat. He kind of has to be with his limitations. His audibles are almost always correct and he understands coverages. I don’t see him getting fooled too frequently. His turnovers are almost never the ‘damnit Jake/Cam!’ brand we have been accustomed to. They are ALWAYS due to his size/strength limitations.  Strip sacks that shouldn’t be. Picks that happened because he just don’t got that NFL arm. He is still prone to panicking and the wheels can and do fall off at a much higher rate than his peers.  The team is winning on the backs of the defense, running game and special teams… but they’re winning, and unbelievably 1 game behind Tampa. As long as this is happening and Bryce doesn’t go full meltdown, Dave is going to keep him in. He is not getting pulled. 
    • This was a terrible podcast. A bunch of uninformed homers that had worse takes than the bottom 10% of the Huddle. I listened to a handful of podcasts this past offseason in search of new Panthers material since John Ellis doesn't do his pod anymore and The 4 Man Rush don't either. Immediately deleted it after the handful I listened to. Truly terrible.
    • The NFC South was so bad it sent a team with a losing record to the Playoffs that year. Wilks had players playing hard at the end but let’s not act like that was a good season. That season hurts even more now that we see in hindsight how good our QB situation was. We just didn’t know it.
