of course they need a couple of players which is obvious but i still think certain play calling in the 4th and time management has been a major concern for the panthers.

you probably backing rivera after these last wins and if he wins out....... but they should of did that earlier.

you could also make the case THAT THE CURRENT PLAYERS need to improve then u dont have those mishaps and dont need that many players to make a playoff run.

We need a lot, considering a third of our team finishes every season on injured reserve.

Keep in mind this is partly due to the fact we aren't in the running for the post-season.

Let's say we get a starter injured week 10, and his injury typically has a 6 week recovery period. Rather than keep him as part of the 53 and have him available for the playoffs, we put him on the shelf and it gives us a chance to get a look at some younger guys. A number of guys on IR now wouldn't be on it if we had been in the running.

The same thing happened last year.

I am not a Rivera homer and agree with the your concerns.Having said that, he has improved the defense and I think the verdict is still out on his ability to put it all together.I do not understand his decisions the first half of the season but feel many of his short falls can be corrected.The team appears to support him.I say let watch the remainder of the season and see if he is correcting his mistakes.A loss to Oakland may seal his fate.

As it relates to talent I feel if we absolutely must upgrade our OG and FS and need a NT,OT, and a consistent target of Cam. I just do not feel LaFell gets the separation to get open enough.

      We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)

      I think there's a ton of potential in that WR room. But they really are unproven right now. Hopefully they live up to the hype.
