Do not watch this.

Warned you.

Tendering Remmers to keep him as the starter was a dumb decision. Waste of cap space. I thought we all knew he was a cheap stop gap in 2014/2015 that needed to be replaced. They should have at least replaced him with another cheap stop gap at RT and used the cap space to upgrade another position.

Waste of a year. I would not be shocked if Oher and Remmers remain the starters for the next few years. I have no hope in Gettleman to find a franchise OT. Maybe he will surprise me this off season, but I doubt it.

We saw what happens if you give Cam a "serviceable" offensive line last year.  It's the most glaring fault on our team and we're starting two rookie cornerbacks.  

 

*Edit: Yes, I know injuries suck, yes, I know, sometimes Cam does these things to himself.

I cant wait to watch the senior bowl linemen drills.

Mike Remmers is now property of Bruce Irvin.  I hope his agent still reads this board.  Ya boy sucks.  Run tell dat.

I was fine with keeping Remmers as a backup, but I thought it was crazy to keep him as a starter.

Though, to be fair, that very well may have been the plan.  Evidently the coaches were disappointed that Williams didn't make more of a push in training camp.  Seems like they wanted him to take that job or at least provide Remmers with a good challenge and evidently that didn't happen.  Oher was always supposed to be the LT.  Then, Oher went down and all hell broke loose at OT. 

Take another look at that gif. Why is it Williams who is getting help from Stewart (and a chip from KB before he entered his route) while Remmers is on an island? It's concerning to me if the staff trusts Remmers more than Williams.  We know Remmers is hot trash. If Remmers is better than Williams, then we need two starting OTs this offseason.  Unfortunately, I think Oher is done.

LOL. You know we started the season with the exact same serviceable line this year? There were 0 changes on offense from the #1 scoring offense except that we added Kelvin Benjamin.

See edit.  We knew even last year that serviceable line had faults and did nothing to address them.  That's all i'm pointing out.

Someone explain to me what Kelvin is doing? Wasted a full second at the start. 

[LinvilleGorge]

With all that said, Cam needs to throw that ball to KB over the middle.  It's not going to pick up many yards, but I'd rather gain 3-4 than lose 8.

He was supposed to chip that LB before starting his route - or, maybe he saw the LB coming on a blitz and took it upon himself to try to chip him.  Who knows?  He did a sorry job of chipping him, but it had no impact on the play.

Obviously playing tag. And by the looks of it, the other dude is totally it.

Michael Oher: 3/6/2015: Signed four-year, $24.45 million contract. The deal contains $9.5 million guaranteed. 2016-2019: Under Contract, 2020: Free Agent.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Oher retire after taking this long to recover from the concussion. While I certainly would not wish for it, the Panthers cannot afford to cut him if wants to stay. They're paying him $3.73M per year...

Yeah, I think an injury settlement is likely coming. I'd love to see him back, but not at the expense of his health.  From a strictly football perspective, I'd rather knowingly not have him going into the off-season than be counting on him and then lose him.  IMO, we need to be operating under the assumption that he's done.

Sadly, adding KB back into the offense seemed to have hurt us.  It somehow messed up something that worked amazingly well (SURPRISINGLY WELL!) last season.   No way am I blaming him.  Coaching & play calling get a lot of the blame.  We got way too stale / predictable on offense.  But somehow KB back in the mix threw the O out of sync it seems.
