they have talked about his feet constantly... almost every conversation. Stating he needed to settle down. Brady said it, Rhule said it, Sean Ryan said it, and Steve Smith said it.

Smitty spoke the truth on Darnold's play in the preseason. On TV, you saw nice short to medium completions but he was pointing out open guys deep and pointing out problems with ball placement on certain passes. We saw some of those same things yesterday.

I liked his poise. I didn't see panic from him which is great. But there's still considerable work to be done.

Why the fug would you go away from a guy that's picking up 7+ yards everytime he touches the ball?!

We don't really need it. Sam stuck the ball into the FB's shoulder before he cleared. 

At some point, these guys might get tired of getting thrown under the bus covering for Darnold. The receivers were the problem all during camp and the joint practices. I don't think I've heard a single critical peep about Darnold from anyone in the organization.

Oh boy they sure look sick of him and his coddling:

Because workload management is a thing.  There's a lot of research around RBs with 400 touch seasons, and never quite being the same.  If you want CMC to last, he needs to be spelled a little more IMO.

Because he's coming off an injury plagued year and RBs have a long history of falling off a cliff at 1800 carries. We burn the CMC candle at both ends with his heavy use in the passing game. He already has over 1000 combined touches in barely over three seasons (52 games).

Carolina 19 - NY Jets 14

^Only stats that matter^

ok, was merely showing why a reporter noted Wilson's 2nd half as successful.   Considering someone else was shocked by the comment.  They played a good 2nd half.  We played a better 1st half.

      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...
