Yeah, I suppose that is true. If he can be a good game manager, then that serves the purpose we probably need for him.

100%. There is no reason to rush him.

Green Bay is already deep into injury issues, so I wonder if they factor in.

As someone who was definitely against the signing, this is true. If he can maintain this higher level of play for the bulk of the season, then it's reasonable to think he can improve even further in future seasons. I am still wary of proclaiming him "the answer" this early in. I didn't forget last season where Teddy ripped off three straight wins early in the year and the same jumping to conclusions was made. Or when Kyle Allen was ripping off 5 straight wins. He doesn't concern me as much as they did in the "eye test" category like Teddy and Allen did.

I think the biggest key will be remaining healthy. Being down two starting DB's hurts a lot. CMC was obviously a loss but I think the identity of this team is on the defensive side of the ball. Hopefully Bouye can step up and fill in well for Horn. Glad we signed him.

49ers/Packers too. These feel like key matchups for the top of the NFC pecking order.

It's hard to know what to think at the moment. This is the "easy" part of the schedule but we have looked dominant defensively. I don't think I see anyone left on the schedule that I really fear. That was something I wasn't expecting.

Maybe the sample collector was an Eagles fan.

I think you are reading more into it than necessary. He's just explaining hamstring injuries and what they are/why they happen. He isn't giving a dissertation nor being definitive about CMC's injury diagnosis. He even pokes fun at the fact that it might even be the other leg.

Cowturd doesn't believe in Darnold. He's just using Darnold to throw shade at Baker Mayfield. Anyone hyping this up is basically signing off on that smug douche giving backhanded compliments to Sam.

It would be nice to see how our situational 3rd down conversions compare to league averages.

He is actually just more so talking about the hamstring in general and clearly keeps adding that he doesn't know much about CMC's specific injury other than speculating. I really don't see what the butthurt was about. It was an informative video.

I mean....most of them are a problem at this point.

The OL is definitely trash. It's extraordinarily obvious. We need just accept that is going to be the case for the bulk of the season. Maybe the younger players start to show some sign of being able to help us as the season progresses. That's about all we can hope for. On the positive side, we have been able to win three straight games with a dumpster fire OL. Says a lot about the scheme and the play of the rest of the offense.

Reddick is looking like the best Panthers offseason addition. Maybe one of the best offseason additions in the NFL.

I care way less about the refs than the injuries. Shitty refs are part of the game AND we won despite them sucking balls.

Really don't want to see him rush back with a hamstring injury. Those tend to be nagging. Take the time you need to get healthy. We will be fine.

Agreed. This has been phenomenal and it shows we might be, once again, ahead of schedule. That's really fuging enough for me. I don't need a 15 win season(although I would take it for sure). Just keep showing this progress and that the majority of the offseasons moves were right.

The CMC injury may just be overuse the length of his career. TBH, he is leaning towards being one of those NFL RB's just just catches the injury bug and start to break down. So, due to that, not 100% ready to say the turf was the main cause of his injury. However, Horn's injury did smack of turf related. If so....get rid of that poo ASAP.

This x1000. Sam is much better having the safety net of one of the top weapons in the league. The only thing that MIGHT be a blessing is Hubbard getting increased game reps. At least his development should ramp up and we will know if we finally have a long term backup RB.
