Preseason Game #2 - who impressed/who disappointed

Carolina didn't truly come to life until Jake Luton took over under center.

Luton had one decent drive with a beautiful pass for a TD.  But talking about lost.  The final drive we had zero chance of coming back.  His throws were terrible especially considering he's playing against bottom tier players.

Corral had two scoring drives in the 2nd half.  While he didn't throw a TD he did lead a FG and a TD.  The hate this man gets is unbelievable.

I'm usually not overly critical at one or two particular guys but both Eric Rowe and Spencer Brown bring very little to the squad.  And it's not like Brown is a particularly awesome pass blocking RB either.  They seem a notch slower than everyone on the field on their respective sides.

Given Hubbard's ankle injury, I think we need to start monitoring other team's RB cuts come next week. Blackshear looks great but it would serve us well to look for a viable guy that has strengths as a pass blocker.

Ankle injury?🥺

i haven't seen the elephant in the room brought up. Boseman has looked awful through two games. Overpowered and not coordinating the line well at all. Maybe his wife should be in his ear lol. That sack from Icky was a miscommunication. No assignment to pick up anyone so he shaded inside, had no help.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
