Sorry... But this deserves a thread. How in the fug has he ran so well tonight? The line has been great, yes. But the dude has actually looked like he did back in 2008. I thought he was washed up, and I know this is only one game, but now I'm starting to think that he was just being a lazy bum sitting on that large contract of his the past few years. fug him. He's no longer a Panther in my mind. Move if you want, but I can't believe this sh*t.

Heck  Yeah he is lazy....I think I heard he was 15 lbs lighter, just that is a conversation to have its own thread.  I'm tipsy and guess what...he has to retire as a panther  for his accomplishments but man ohh man this is a convo, I believe he had animosity with our organization and still does, unless it's more personal with change in coaching

The truth is our offensive scheme sucks and we have one of the worst coordinators in the NFL and our line was garbage most of the year. I was defending Deangelo all last season, wasn't his fault that he had defenders on him as soon as he touched the ball. But yall were mad because we wasn't going hulk on defenders. Give him some space and he's one of the best in the league.

I love the huddles' excuse for literally every player that does even somewhat decent somewhere else.

 

Could it be that the Panthers coaching and personal maybe did not use players properly, or maybe there wasn't enough talent/right players around them here to do much.

 

seriously....every player that leaves and does somewhat well. There is a trend, we aren't like other teams who have the personal to coach almost anyone. Sure there are other factors, and I'm not saying it wasn't the players time to go but this organization can share the blame, there's a trend lately.

      Mini camp Day Two

      By t96 · Posted

      Posted before in this thread, he broke his leg late in 2015 after being dominant in the slot that year too, pretty sure that injury prompted us to sign Finnegan out of retirement (who to his credit was great as a late season injury replacement off the street). Not that it would've made much of a difference in the SB anyways with our OL getting killed, but we got absolutely decimated by injury at CB late that year with Bene breaking his leg and I think Peanut Tillman tore his achilles or something in like week 16. That was rough.  But yeah Bene was truly a great slot corner, one of the best in the league, before that injury. Then in 2016 he came back out of shape and without the agility he had before and was just not good. Rivera inexplicably matched him against Julio without any adjustments that game and then we cut him. He had declined enough anyways but I hardly blame him for the Julio game. Dude was a slot corner who was already struggling that year, not someone you matchup against a guy who at the time was easily a top 3-5 WR in the league, if not the best...

      Bene got scapegoated for that game. Literally. I think we cut him like a day or two after that game. He looked really good as a rookie but then had an injury that I can't recall exactly what it was and was just never the same after that.

      I saw the same thing lol, couldn't believe my eyes. Apparently they were so hurt at safety they signed him to practice squad in November and he immediately slotted in for 7 starts. All at safety.    Pretty sure the tiny dude was Sanchez and was one of the victims along with Benwikere to Julio's infamous 300 yard game. I think he only caught passes against those 2 guys all game, with most being against Bene. Barely played after that, rightfully so.
