I believe the first playoff game of his career happened with the Carolina Panthers. May want to check.

Yeah, in a year where he was described by this fanbase as a slot receiver, since he was doing so poorly at runningback.

Well if there's anyone who knows football, it's this fanbase. I mean, we gotta be patient with the guys we like. But if we don't like them, they suck.

That's true, but it is what it is. We didn't really win with Christian here and at the end of the day his ground production was readily replaced with cast-offs. It's just the modern NFL. Runningbacks are a dime a dozen because of it.

Ground production, yes. Foreman is underrated. As a receiving threat, anyone who thinks a non-Moore Panthers pass catcher has 1/1000 of McCaffrey's skill set, well, they're Frank. I'm not sure anyone else could be that ignorant.

The Panthers used to be in the NFCW and we had a rivalry going with them in just the last several years. I hope this doesn’t keep you up tonight honey you seem upset about it. Take a melatonin.

Maybe I'll stare at some CMC photos ... knowing that somewhere out there, you'll flip your lid.

No he wasn't - Geno was never anywhere to come back to in the first place. Breakout player, sure, but he wasn't coming back from anything.

With that said I'm not sure I'd go CMC for this, but Geno doesn't fit the description.

What was CMC coming back from besides Matt Rhule?

      The Athletic/Diana Russini: What I'm Hearing - "Bryce is Done in Carolina"

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I think it was less Tepper mandating it and more Tepper finally relenting and allowing it. I've always maintained that I think what caused Reich to be fired midseason was likely him going to Tepper and saying something along the lines of "Either let me play Dalton and five this team a chance to compete or just go ahead and fire me now."

      The Athletic/Diana Russini: What I'm Hearing - "Bryce is Done in Carolina"

      I honestly think it was a mutual, collective decision. Canales might have been hired to be the Panthers head  coach because he was the best chance to get Bryce where he needed to be to succeed and did everything...I mean he and Morgan did EVERYTHING possible to create a successful situation for Bryce. And it was obvious... painfully obvious that not only was it not working, the team was losing and it was effecting everything. Canales was hired because they thought he could help Bryce, but he was hired as the PANTHERS head coach, not Bryce's personal coach. If everyone could see this was failing far beyond what anyone could have and it didn't look like it was anything that could be fixed quickly....then that everyone who could see would have to include Canales himself who is responsible for not just Bryce, but the whole damn team has to have looked at what it was doing to the team and their chances to win and said, we have to choose what is best for Bryce or the Panthers. He came in and said he had no personal attachment to any player, and that means he has no personal attachment to Bryce. He's going to do what is best to help the team win. If that means benching Bryce, then that's what he's going to do. Did he make this call without Teppers blessing or input? Hell no. Did they come into the Monday meeting having both come to the same conclusion regarding Bryce? I would have a hard time arguing that wasn't the case. All in leadership has to have seen it wasn't just not working...it was killing the team and they had to make this switch for the betterment of the team soon or else lose the season completely. No way would Canales had bern campaigning for Bryce to stay in there. He's not that dumb. Sometimes regardless of the work you do, you have to realize when it's futile and the earlier you recognize it, the better off you will be.
