Injury Report for Friday

Stewart probable, Davis and Beason questionable vs. Falcons

Running back Jonathan Stewart will likely take the field for the first time since Sept. 16 when the Panthers play at Atlanta on Sunday.

Stewart is listed as probable on the Panthers' injury report Friday along with CB Chris Gamble, S/ST Colin Jones, T Byron Bell and DE Thomas Keiser.

Listed as questionable for the Panthers are three top defensive players. LB Thomas Davis participated fully in practice Friday after suffering a calf injury that kept him out of last Thursday's game versus the Giants.

DE Greg Hardy is questionable after he broke his thumb early in the Giants' game. Head coach Ron Rivera said Hardy's hand will likely be wrapped fully for the game.

Starting MLB Jon Beason has dealt with shoulder and knee injuries since before the Giants' game. He said Beason's soreness tomorrow after Friday's practice will play a big role in his status for Sunday.

"He looked good,"Rivera said of Beason at Friday's practice. "Mentally he was in it and that’s the best part. He stayed Monday, Wednesday, Thursday. He stayed in it so when he came out (to practice), the limited reps he took were spot-on so that’s a huge plus."

Listed as out is G Mike Pollak (shoulder) and doubtful is DE Antwan Applewhite (knee).

I'd be comfortable with a starting line up of Anderson, Keek, and TD and let Beason rest up this week and potentially next week as well, then it's the bye.

I have a man crush on Beast, but when he's playing with various injuries just a year removed from that serious Achilles injury, well I'd rather him get fully healed and we field a more capable LB unit.

I admire his heart, but his play against the vaGiants hurt himself and the team.

I'm also very concerned about Hardy and Applewhite potentially missing this game. Our pass rush is bad enough as it is, but without a decent rotation, our fatigued-looking DEs might get worn out even faster than normal...

Something tells me that McDermott has been given an ultimatium/serious a** chewing, and we'll see more press coverage and blitzing, much may help us or prove your point about us wearing down quicker.( Or I suppose it's me wanting a do or die/go for broke mindset).

Congrats...very intelligent, in depth analysis of you.

Was that a terrible attempt at sarcasm or did you actually think that quick little tidbit was an 'in depth analysis?

    • I think at some point you top out what God gave you.  He can use leverage via his mechanics to maximize what he has and When he pays attention to it the throws are better.    IMO as a layman a lot of it is what kind of ‘headroom’ you have. The guys who are gifted don’t have to use maximum effort to get good results and stay within themselves but they have it in reserve. They can do an arm throw for substantial distance without max effort.    I think what we may be seeing with these ‘lasers’ is a throw that Bryce puts the max effort into and does his mechanics right and has his base right and it works together.    To get to the payoff here, I think his best velocity throws take dall that whereas  a naturally gifted guy doesn’t need to go full effort to get that same velocity. I have said this three or four times over the years and it never gets picked up on but the accuracy is more consistent with an easier motion and max effort can produce less predictable location. It is a baseball pitcher thing but it applies to throwing a pass too. It isn’t that you can’t make an accurate throw with full effort it is just not as reliably accurate to the same degree. Someone said something about his pro day and that is where I saw it too. He took a little extra step on the deep throws. Some call it a hitch but I don’t see it that way because I don’t see it on shorter throws. He does it trying to get distance. I saw that and just wanted no part of it at 1.1 . That is not tne characteristic of a 1.1 passer.  He should have been at best, late first  I had him second day. Of course I am no one and certainly not a pro evaluator, it is just that he WS so easy to suss out. They must have thought they could fix him. Changing a lifelong throwing motion with the footwork tied into it is not fuging easy. Anyone that had decent success with ‘their’ way and tried to change it to get more, can tell you that.     
    • Sounds like a tad bit of what Josh Allen had. He would make throws that made zero sense die to his desire to make a make. Bryce also turns the ball over believing their is an unlimited shot clock in those moments. Sometimes the best play is to reset for the next one. 
    • See, I think one of his biggest issues is he bails too early.  His instinct has been to bail as soon as defenders get behind him and the pocket starts to close in. Taller QBs hang in there for that extra second or two and throw over guys as the pocket collapses in the QBs lap.  BY runs as soon as this starts to happen, which means routes don’t have time to develop and the field gets cut in half as soon as he runs. This last game I saw some signs of him being willing to hang in the pocket when the defense gets behind him, but that has been rare.
