  1. I didn't say BC would start at LT here. Panthers going to Panther. He will be a better pass blocker than Ekwonu no question
  2. That OL was impressive. BC is going to start at LT when this season is over
  3. Great blocking run and pass. Could have driven a truck down the field and Bryce was able to stumble near the GL and still have time to recover in that great pocket.
  4. This is what a good situational change of pace RB gets now? He's not an every down feature back for 4 years.
  5. 5 to 10 touches a game until mid December then 10 to 15 for the rest of the way.
  6. If Morgan keeps collecting Texas talent for the offense, I will fully expect the Panthers to go after Manning.
  7. First, Hubbard is a GOOD change of pace RB. He is not a top 15 playoff caliber every down RB. It's completely wrong to believe he can carry a team to wins in a full game and control the clock. So, how do you explain the Washington game where he killed 2 of the 6 drives in the 1st half? 7 runs of 1 yard or -2 yards on 12 carries. You call that consistent? He's ended how many opening drives with his consistent running? Atlanta game with his -2 yard run, his 0 gain in the flat against Chicago, and his 1-0-0 runs against the Bengals. Hubbard wasn't even productive on the TD Drive he scored on against the Saints (runs of 1-6-2-0-1). That was JT Sanders drive bailing out the running game. He's a change up back to catch a defense off guard. The final TD drive where he had 1 run in the drive after the passing game set him up for a 16 yard TD run makes this clear. Hubbard needs the passing game and a strong run blocking OL. He needs 115 yards from the passing game on both those TD drives. On the 3rd TD drive against the Saints, Hubbard had a 6 yard run and a 0 yard run. You'd cheer his stat line for those 3 TD drives of 8 carries for 32 yards (4.0 ypc) and 2 TDs. He lost on 4 of those 8 carries. He did not anchor any of those drives. He won on 61% of his opportunites. That's equivalent to a QB completing 50% of their passes. Stop looking at garbage stats and see how he factors into a meaningful drive. How many drives is he responsible for ending? How many drives does he carry the load? I'm not saying he isn't good, but he isn't a feature back. He's clearly a change up and 1st down RB at best with significant weaknesses as an every down RB. Here are his 9 opening drive touches. 4-7-3-Punt (Young), 5-3-Punt (Tremble), 4-8-6-6-TD (Dalton), 6-0-0-3-1-0-0-Turnover (Hubbard), 5-0-Punt (Tremble/Hubbard), 4-(-2)-Punt (Hubbard/Ekwonu), 4-6-1-Turnover (Miles/Hubbard), 8-7-(-2)-13-TD (Young), 5-Punt (Miles). That's 3.75 yards per touch and he was responsible for 4 failed opening drives. This is a prime example of an inconsistent RB.
  8. I see Canales and Morgan having to prove to Tepper the rookies are better than his players before demoting them. A long process instead of Tepper simply getting out of the way, but it's working. Now, let's shake loose Miles. Get Brooks starting over Hubbard behind this OL. Trade away Bryce. Toss Evero and all his pet players. Sign BC to play LT and move Ekwonu to LG. Getting there slowly as expected with Tepper as the owner.
  9. Hubbard is big runs or bust runs. Can't get the 1st downs in short yardage situations. Can't be a consistent 3rd down back in the flat. Considering the run blocking OL he has, he's not as good as he looks from just his highlight runs. My hope is that he makes a good change up back to Brooks.
  10. Did Bryce show up like Dalton against the Raiders? Dalton is still the better QB for the development of XL, Coker and JT Sanders. Bryce is still not where he needs to be and doesn't trust the offense like Dalton has. Canales seems to struggle more on the sideline with Bryce in the game too compared to Dalton.
  11. Helps when your LT isn't sitting in your lap, giving up the inside, or losing leverage from the outside on passing downs. The pass pro and pockets looked good today.
  12. Taking a shot at BC in a pie thread? BC deserves your pie. Serve that man a piece of pie and smile at that pocket Bryce got today. In fact, give BC an entire pie. He's going to get bags of cash with his pie.
  13. Still trading for Trevor Lawrence to work with Canales straight up, and I don't see that as an impactful upgrade. Mac Brown, Josh Rosen, Trey Lance, Kyle Trask, Zach Wilson, Justin Fields, Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield and Daniel Jones are all upgrades over Bryce.
  14. LT BC, LG Ekwonu, C Bozeman, RG Hunt, RT Moton was always the right call for a good pass pro and dominant running attack Missed that opportunity Let's not miss on losing a good LT and having the best LG in the game.
  15. XL, Thielen, Coker and JT Sanders are the approved starting offense. BC looking good at LT
  16. Or Canales getting on Bryce for not trusting the play calls and checking down to the screen which is meant to freeze the D if they don't cover the receiver on the post. Bryce is still getting spooked by disguised blitzes.
  17. Give Brady Christensen his due. That was the cleanest we've seen the pocket in a while. Consistency with edge pass blocking is critical (especially when you need passing lanes for a short QB). He's starting at OT for an NFL team. Panthers need to make him the LT and move Ekwonu to LG. Ekwonu will easily be an All Pro guard. Need to trade Lewis or Hunt. Ekwonu comes back and you'll see the pocket problems again that will take away any small chance of success with Bryce at QB. Ekwonu's ankles won't hold up over the years with his poor footwork, slow kick, and the body leans.
  18. Evero showing the pressure they can bring if he asks for it. Then back to a backstop D
  19. Evero going to dial up a ball hawking D or just sit back and wait for a mistake like a back stop defense?
  20. What was Bryce staring at for 5 seconds? XL and Coker were on the opposite side and he never looked at them
  21. See what happens when you trust the call Bryce
