What has Hixon done to not see the field?? Now we only have 4 WR on the active roster??. Any ideas on if they are bringing somebody in and who it might be?? Can we really trust Hixon to stay health with only 3 other WR's on the roster.

 

 

And can Brandon Williams be active one week? I know RR loves Hartsog and Brochel but aren't they the same player really?? When can big swollow bones get some game time?

Williams was active for Seahawks and Giants games.

I saw Hixon run downfield for punt return blocking duties, but he blocked absolutely no one.

*Hartsock* is the best blocking TE we have. Actually, he's the ONLY blocking TE we have.

*Brockel* makes special teams contributions to justify his roster spot. He's not as important to our offense as Hartsock, but he's big on ST.

Brandon Williams, in theory, should be able to replace those two next season. In addition to replacing those two, he is a pretty good receiver. (at least this is what I think the plan is- pure speculation).

And how do you get "swollow bones" out of "swoll bones"?

All of these things hinge on an offensive coordinator that runs an efficient practice that showcases who is making plays and who isn't. It also requires the ability to recognize those things and act accordingly by working their skills into plays and a game plan.

 

In other words... don't hold your breath.

Our oline sucks too bad to have Williams out there. That safety was the most disgusting thing I've seen in my life.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
