Bridgewater questionable, others doubtful


MHS831

Recommended Posts

DOUBTFUL:  CB Donte Jackson (toe), G John Miller (knee, ankle), and T Russell Okung (calf) are unlikely to play

QUESTIONABLE:  CB Rasul Douglas (ankle), S Sam Franklin (ankle), DE Yetur Gross-Matos (shoulder), DE Marquis Haynes (shoulder), TE Chris Manhertz (shoulder), and LB Tahir Whitehead (rib) and QB Bridgewater (knee).

COMMENTS:  Sit Bridgewater.  Who needs Cornerbacks?  Whitehead could sit, improve his stats.  YGM--rub some dirt on it.   Russell--nice job making $13m in your first year of retirement.

Wonder what the OL looks like if Miller can't go.

I'm gonna guess Scott, Reed, Paradis, Daley, Moton

That is a very scary line---2 out OL is all I need to know to bench Bridgewater this week---2 OL, 2 CBs, 2 DEs---our trainer must feel like Noah.

Going into this season I really didn't think Okung would play in many games, and I thought Teddy would be injured at some point due to a sack. I also expected Jackson to be injured a lot, which would put us in hot water. Well this poop season has not given me many surprises.

JFC with Okung. WTF does Marty keep spending $$$s on hurt players. Between last year and this year we’ve spent $6M on Williams (last year), $9M on Paradis (last year), $13M on Short and $13.5M on Okung and got what a 3 or 4 “good” games?

People are bagging on the CMC deal because he got hurt this year, but his deal is basically a 3 year $39M deal and we basically burned more than that on guys coming off major injuries who were clearly not effective or got hurt again. Another $13M thrown away on Weatherly, Roberts and Apple. For those that didn’t want a bridge QB, we could have had a rookie QB and $100M in cap without Teddy and signing garbage.

I mean, how is he still here? We are rebuilding and just throwing away money that could cover a lot of our who do we sign Moore, Moton and/or Samuel questions. We could have owned this division for the rest of this decade but we kept Marty and piled in money for 8-18.

Is Larsen strictly a backup Center now? I think the guy plays well at times. I know he played left guard some last year, why not give him some reps.

Well, in retrospect, we did trade Turner for Okung. Turner played some in the first game and has rode the bench since.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
