Not sure why the glee over Samuel having a minor injury. I wish him well. Would've liked to have kept him but we had bigger priorities and it didn't make sense to give our 4th offensive option big money.

Nobody is celebrating it, I'm just glad we didn't resign him which is probably what Hurney would've done.

I think letting him walk was the correct call too, but it's just in really poor taste IMO to make a thread spiking the football about the guy missing week one due to a minor injury. We chose not to re-sign him. It's not like he forced his way out or it was an ugly breakup in any way. The Panthers made a business decision not to re-sign him. Samuel made a business decision to sign a contract to continue playing NFL football elsewhere. That's it, that's all. There's just no legit reason to be salty and this thread is saltier than the Dead Sea.

Did you totally miss the part about Rivera?

I definitely missed anything to get mad about.

I can't speak for everyone else, but I am not mad or upset about anything.

I think that some things will never change, like Rivera shrugging it off instead of iterating how important he believes Samuel (who they are not getting on a bargain bin deal) can be to their offense and that he is excited to have Samuel healthy again as soon as possible.

I long ago became numb to Ron Rivera saying dumb poo. I don't even notice it anymore.

You normally make to much out of what coaches say to the media. 

Seems to me you're just taking another opportunity to take a jab at him. 

Let that poo go.

Any glee Panther fans feel is not about Curtis Samuels injury and it is not about salt.

It is about this not happening to the Panthers anymore.

This too. 
 

Hurney was liable to pay him like a #1 and be stuck with him and his current injuries (and likely later ones) and contract while losing Robby and DJ over the years due to it.

All this while losing out on Marshall

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
