If you listen to his interviews and read between the lines, this year really seems like his final run. That's probably why he's so eager to get back out there.

Came on here to suggest the same thing. He's in all-or-nothing mode. He doesn't care about his foot past this year.

This is great news, but surely they will rest him another week, right?

It’s incredibly unlikely he’s gonna be back for the Giants game but it’s looking like he might be able to make it back by the Eagles game with the Redskins game being unlikely but not impossible.

 

    If he is in shells. He may be ready to go. Practice today, evaluate it tomorrow and see how it goes. If he can practice today, and wake up tomorrow without any discomfort. He may be a go.

 

    I mean, why would he be in shells, if he was not planning on playing?

I think he's already been ruled out for this week

    Was that just Ron being Ron? Or was he notified by the doctors? Are not inactives not posted until Sun?

 

    I know it could very well be just my fan side wanting him back. But man, he ran all week, now he is practicing Fri. Isn't Fri the day you prove you can play? If you don't practice Fri, you don't usually play. You practice Fri, and you usually play.

I think we should be smart here, Its the Giants. we should be able to beat these guys without greg. Get the dub. have TD and Greg come back next week and this train is officially rolling towards ATL!!

That’s what I was eluding to. I don’t want to take the Giants lightly, but we can rest him another week.

If hes out there running around without any limitations or pain, then put the man in the game!  Its not like his bones are only partly healed, its either healed, or its not.  Once a broken bone has healed its just as strong as it was before.  He should be good to go!  Our offense is going to take off once he gets back in the swing of things.

DO NOT RUSH HIM.

 

We don't need him at the moment, Thomas has shown enough to be able to handle some of the load, and we should beat the brakes off the Giants.

Let him rest, we will absolutely need him in the playoff push toward the end of the season.

The media narrative on the Panthers is going to change dramatically in the next few years. Tepper is going to have a HUGE impact on that, but also, the best football analyst/commentator in the game is going to be a former all-time great Panther with nothing but good things to say about the organization. Greg Olsen will be that starting the moment he hangs up his cleats.

      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.
