I kept hearing how "CAP showed good things in pre season"

WHEGER WAS OUTSTANDING then. He completely dominated the majority of his carries. I cannot think of anything more other than having Alshon come here that Id like the panthers to do. We need that explosiveness. I love Stewart but he is not busting a 60 yard run or turning the game on its ass with one play. 

I don't see why people are dismissing him so easily when he shined so bright for us? Guy is a beast.

To be fair, I don't see Wegher busting out for a 60 yard run either.

It would be nice to see what he has to offer in a regular season game scenario though in case we need him in the playoffs. Depending on how severe Fozzy's injury is or if Stew has any lingering issues with his injury, and if anything were to happen to any of our other backs, we could possibly end up having a situation with our running back position similar to the playoffs in 2005 that costed us a shot at a championship.

I need someone who can pick up the blitz.

If Fozzy and Stew are both out, Wegher will be activated.

 

For poos and giggles, let's say he goes off on the bucs. Do u sit him back down in the playoffs?

Is Williams starting over Remmers?

No?

I think you have your answer.

I think he should at this point though. I dont think this is Remmers playing poorly, its more like teams figured out the best way to attack him.

Well that's the thing isn't it?

"Should" against the very small possibility of Rivera/Shula/McDermott of starting a rookie?

Yeah we all know he wont, im just saying its what would happen in a perfect world. For all Rons use of rookies last year I feel like he's greatly regressed in that area this year...

Ron is not in desperation mode yet, nor should he be, team is 14-1.

Do you have to be in "desperation mode" to play the better, younger player?

[Carl Spackler]

If Stewart doesn't play I guess 14-3 was still pretty good

When it comes to Ron?

Seems so.

For what I've seen from Fozzy and CAP, I'm willing to take a peek at Wegher. 

What did you see from CAP?  He only had 5 carries today.  He had 50 yards or so in those carries.  He should have had more carries today.

I want to see CAP and Wegher next week. Been wanting it all season. It's clear Gettleman and Ron want to keep him for the future or he wouldnt have a roster spot

[WesleyM]

Btw semi met Wegher tonight as he lives in my building, dude is built like a rock

[hepcat]

Wegher should at least get a few carries against Tampa just in case the injuries to Stewart and Fozzy keep them out in the playoffs
