Psssssssssssst... There is a Panthers game this week...

Panthers game Thursday night! Yes, it is only preseason. But I know for a fact that most of you would have gnawed off your right arm for a chance to watch a preseason game during the first week in July. 

That said... expectations for the game? How many series will the first string play? 

Are you hoping for a heavy dose of CAP and Wegher? Rivera has said he only wants Stewart to "break a sweat". Those two young guys may see a lot of action.

I'll be surprised if the starters play for more than 2 series. I'm gonna be watching Butler mostly. I want to see him get as many reps as he can handle. 

Sounds right. 

 

Although last year didn't they keep the first string offense in until they had a decent series? Seems like it.

Yeah, I think you may be right. Hopefully, they will drive down and score on the first possession and send in the back ups this time.

Yes it's preseason, but I am stoked!

I see the first stringers only playing about 3 series.  Cap might play the entire first half, followed by Wegher playing most of the second.  Fozzy will get very limited reps to give those guys a breather.

i am most excited to see guys like Cash, Sandland, Simonson, Byrd, and Hill.  Also hope to see flashes out of the new secondary as well as Delaire, Miley, etc.. Either way, I'm excited that Panthers football is back!!!

    • We have Dalton and possibly Plummer ATM. Neither are great options. The time to address this was in the off season when we actively chose to not bring in any real competition. Bryce played Josh Rosen level bad last year. 1st pick or not, you can't just hand the starting position to that level of QB play and be taken seriously. After the 1st 2 games he was benched and many were blaming the supporting cast, but then Dalton lit up the Raiders with the same cast. If you're willing to bench him 2 games into the season, you're openly admitting he wasn't ready to be the only option at starter.  We have no good options right now and that is a huge failure of the FO. We didn't win today because of BY, we won in spite of him. Chuba carried this team. Bryce did nothing extraordinary. He played a game you would expect to see from any backup QB in the league. If the Giants D wasn't so horrible against the run, do you think BY would have been able to put 300 yards and 3 scores on the board? I don't and that's my problem. When the game is on the line, and we saw it twice today (Coker and Chuba) he couldn't make the pass. That's a basic NFL pass. Daboll didn't respect him enough and punted away with 3 minutes on the clock and had the ball back in under a minute.  Maybe I'm wrong and BY becomes great and that would be the best thing for the team and I will happily eat crow. The worst thing is he becomes mediocre and we consider that success and stop trying to get better at the position and we live every year somewhere between 6-8 wins. 
    • 49ers barely squeak by the Jets on a last second field goal make Saints beat the Falcons.  Crazy ass day so far
