"I've got a lot of friends I played with over there and a lot of coaches," Ealy said. "It's going to mean more to me playing in that game and just being fired up about going out there and just really doing what I need to do for my team. But also, getting a little revenge, I guess you could say."

The reason these players perform good after being released or traded is because they get motivated. Steve smith had around 700 receiving yds. We release him, he goes for over 1,000yds next season. Well gee, if you had played like that before, you wouldn't have been released. After his, "look panthers made a mistake by releasing me" season, he never eclipsed 800yds or 5 tds again. Same with d willis. He was continuously injured and barely had 200 rush yds. He gets released. He goes off in Pitt for over 800 yds and 11 tds starts talking trash. Well gee, maybe if you were playing like that before, we wdnt have released ya! Same goes with ealy. Some players needa get cut to find motivation.

Smitty was averaging nearly 100 yards per game before he tore his achilles a couple years ago. He was absolutely dominating that year. And was very solid last year coming off the injury. I don't necessarily think releasing him was the wrong move, as his production in '13 was dropping and he had a huge salary going forward, but to say he wasn't still good aside from being mad about the release is just stupid.

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.

      Dream big: Imagine this future and tell me how you feel

      I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
