Moton LT of 2019? Not so fast...

Yes because we had trash on the other side of the line. Moton holds his own no matter what side he is on, but people act like if we moved him to left tackle the last few games that it would have solved everything. The best DE on the other team would simply switch to the right side and poof...same result 

would have solved the blind side...

OK, why would you play a LT at RT all season while Clark flounders at LT?

Because.....there was no one out there better at OT

And Clark again,  as it was reported when he signed here.  Cant.....Play......RT.  top OTs can play both sides.   He is not.  He was the cleanest prospect in the pile of trash.

 

That can't make any sense can it?

 

 

Clark was the most serviceable OT out there.  We just wanted to get the best group of OT on the field, but 1 of them cant play RT.  

Your going to put a D+ Level LT and A level RT on the field over a A- level LT and a F-  level RT

My last post because this is silly. Ron Rivera had Moton skated to play LT and he did did multiple preseason games and week 1. Williams got hurt and Moton moves to the right because the coaches said Clark was more comfortable on the left. That’s it. Moving him back to LT for one meaningless game when Moton has already been evaluated at LT made no sense. I’d maybe agree if Moton hadn’t been handed the LT job and had never played one snap there. He did so it wasn’t necessary. 

lol...so a low level tackle bogged it down...? plenty of RT candidates out there equal to or better than Clark performance...

Omg. Do you know what the word OR means? @ncfan Holy cow.

Do you realize Williams is not technically a Panther right now? He’s a FA. He’s not on our roster.

Now, go back and read my post. We have 1 good tackle in Moton. He can play either spot, so we EITHER resign Williams at RT OR draft a rookie at LT. Moton plays whatever side the new tackle, who’s not on the team right now, isn’t playing. Heck, we could sign a different FA tackle or draft a rookie RT as well.

My previous point again was we need another good tackle, not Kalil and not a scrub rookie, on the opposite side of Moton, the guy our reporters mentioned as the best surprise and who has been rated as a top 10 tackle. 

Yes I do.  I am  a lot of things, but  dumb is not one of them.  This is to the point where you are chasing suggested perspectives and justifying rather ignorant assumptions that you have accepted as fact---which is the location  of the central problem of your logic.  It is a tactic most people adopt when they are more interested in being right than proving facts---Istead of answering the most basic of questions that will expose you--

Why was a top 10 T, a future LT, playing RT all season?  Please answer that.  That is the soul of the thread, before the tangent chasers boarded the train by making crazy statements that support their illogical comments.

Not really--that shows a lack of football acumen.  You do not take a quality player out of a critical position because you had nobody on the roster who could play RT?

You have this thng called a GM--find a damn RT--dont take LTs and move to RTs--that is dumbass.

The only conclusion is that they do not like Moton as a LT.  If you have a LT on  the roster, CLARK does not play  LT.

Yeah because starting RTs just grow out of the fugging ground into the regular season.

If Williams was done before camp and we knew he was done in camp.  Im sure that GM would go after a RT.  But once the season starts.  Only people put there are castoff of cast offs.

Fugging Byron Bell is still out there as a backup.  So only people out there in FA once the season starts are guys who cant even beat put Bells fugging backup.  

Its not magic.  We had to dig through a pile of trash and found about the pnly thing that os somewhat serviceable.  Its just that guy cant play the RT spot.  So you makedo.  You play that guy where he can even if you slide Moton back over to RT

How’s this for proof? I also said the same as the announcer. Not Cam’s blindside but he still didn’t see him. CMC probably should have chipped him or better yet Cam sees Watt come and leave CMC wide open and you hit CMC for a nice gain and don’t get hit. Show me where Moton at LT avoids this.

who was rt...? looks like he avoided Watt...yeah logic says a different RT gives a chance for a different outcome...

WTF? Why would you ever take a top 10 tackle and try him at LG? @RoaringRiot Did we step into the twilight zone here and decide putting our best OL at the easiest OL position makes sense and that it’s better to replace both tackle spots?

Moton is a damn good tackle. Putting him at guard is a terrible decision. We need 1 more solid tackle. We can find a great guard in the 2nd round. Don’t waste a 1st on a tackle.

Also, we’ve seen what signing cheap LTs is about. I’m not ready to do that again. Clark was good for a few games and then settled back into reality. 

did you even read my post? or did you decide it does not go with your narrative and skip over it?
