Also I wish TD wound up with a better team in the AFC... Baltimore or Houston, KC, etc. (not the Pats). Too bad he won’t even get a shot at the playoffs this year, he deserves a ring as much as any active player who doesn’t have one, right up there with Fitzgerald.

Really sucks for some of these guys, the definitely deserve a ring.Davis, fitzgerald, olsen and a few more.

Last word I saw regarding Greg online is that he told Ron Rivera he's okay. Rivera did also confirm however that he is in the concussion protocol.

Said earlier I'm fine with an IR designation, and clearly I'm not alone.

I would rather see Greg go on IR with a healthy brain than get scrambled he is a great dude. This team isn't doing much anyway, greg has made his legacy.

As far as i'm concerned one of the greatest panthers ever.

Obviously better to hear good news early than bad news but often times with concussions, symptoms don’t show up until well after the incident. We need to play it safe with Greg for his sake and shut him down. No reason at all to play him again this year.

I have a feeling that's what they'll do. Heck, we've only got four games left.

Mind you, if they don't, I could see getting kind of upset over it.

if its his last year, and he can play - he's gonna wanna play.   if he's cleared let him do what he wants

[Navy_football]

No IR. Sit him til the last game. He was just knocked out cold but don't want that to be his last memory as a player. 

Coaches have to protect players from themselves. 

[DeAngelo Beason]

Now is a good time for him to ride off into the sunset.  What a great player he was for us.  I can't wait to see him in the booth.

No. Fug the NFL for letting manning go out of retirement with a super bowl ring. Doesn’t it seem somewhat odd that the year Manning announces retirement he wins a Super Bowl? Yeah.:..

If he decided to sit out the rest of the season and return with Cam Newton next year i'd understand it.

He made the decision a month after the Super Bowl. 

Feb 9 After the SB Elway says there is no timetable on retirement decision.

Greg has been great for the Panthers and even better for the community. He’s an all around great guy and a borderline HOFer...

wirh that being said I’m excited that Thomas will finally get some snaps
