So who do you replace him with in your opinion since he’ll probably get cut with a injury settlement.

I think Shi just won the lottery. Of course, Jennings has been making a lot of noise at camp, and Saunders and Wright are always on the fringe of making the roster. So who knows.

Eddy with a groin issue..

 

The Panthers brought in another kicker Tuesday, as Eddy Piñeiro manages an injury that could cost him some preseason time.

The team added Matthew Wright after a pre-practice workout Tuesday.

Wright has kicked for the Chiefs, Steelers, and Jaguars in his career.

He was the guy who helped the Jaguars snap a 20-game losing streak in 2021 when he hit a game-winning 53-yard field goal against the Dolphins in London.

He's appeared in 23 games in his career and is 40-of-46 on field goals and 35-of-37 on extra points.

Isn't this how we wound up with Pineiro? 🤔

Well Zane like tore his off the bone. Eddy will fine, I know it’s easy to fearmonger (not you in particular but in general) but I wouldn’t freak out. 
 

If they had to put him on PUP, then it’s something worth worrying about but they didn’t so he’ll be ready for the season.

We literally drafted Harrison Butker and let him go just to struggle with kickers year after year afterwards 😆  not that I feel bad for him he's a 2x super bowl champion 

Butker struggled last season, fwiw.  18 of 24 (ranked 28th) and missed 3 x points.

    • 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
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
