Three.

# of Turnovers

# of Curtis Samuel snaps

 

Neither are acceptable.

Very frustrating not to see Samuel on the field. More frustrating that their 3rd down conversions, more frustrating than the turnovers, more frustrating than 8 runs by our RB(s)

[Khyber53]

I just can't understand Samuels only making it to the field on kick offs. It makes no sense at all.

And teams don't win after three bad turnovers.

Was he late to the game or something? Punished?

considering how little we ran the ball....the fact Samuel got 3 snaps is mind boggling. 

But not surprising in the Rivera era.  Mind boggling stuff like that happens all the time.

I still haven't heard why Moore was returning punts over him. Isn't Samuel behind Byrd on the returner depth chart?

I knew exactly what this thread was about before opening it.

Don't let the fumbles fool you.  We don't need to be complaining about Moore doing punts or playing.   Dude needs to be on the field as much as possible.   He is a true game changer. 

But yeah, Samuel needs way more snaps and opportunities.  They don't need to come out of Moore's snaps.  They need to come out of all the other guys' snaps. 

Easy prediction.  Smith will get WAY too many snaps vs the Eagles.   His 2 plays this week were 100% playcall.  100%.  Any WR on the field for us would have been open for those plays.

How many running plays did the Panthers try in the second half? Is that 3 as well?

[NorthTryon]

We were all outsmarted by the smoke screen.  Turner talked about Samuel being used more this week and then bam.  We don't use him.  Get some Skins!!! Bet they didn't see that coming.

I got curious and looked it up on PFR this am.  Since 2011 there have been 340 games where a team had a -3 turnover differential or worse. 16 wins. 

So 95%+ of the time a team in our situation has lost since 2011.  It happens. It would have been awesome to pull out the best Panthers 4th qtr comeback ever. Thought we were going to do it...
