Officially Eliminated from Playoffs

[Leeroy Jenkins Ph.D.]

The Team is officially eliminated from playoff contention. 

Do you predict any changes to the game day philosophy or starters now? 

IMO, this should be tryout time for possible future players. Would also love to see a reduction in carries for Chuba. He is signed long term and we need to save his legs. What do y'all think?

nah, we are still trying to develop and grow Bryce Young.  You can't shelf Hubbard out of fear of injury.  You bench Hubbard and the run game goes backwards.  Run game goes backwards, everything goes backwards.   

One game shouldn't change anything.  Bryce had 2 bad fumbles that fugged this game up in reality.  That shouldn't erase what this team was doing with him and what he has been doing in the big picture.

Oh no.

Just because we've only just now been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, doesn't mean that we weren't de facto eliminated weeks ago. I don't think anything changes.

Day ruined

I feel like once we lost to the Bucs in OT we were out. I just want to see XL, Coker, and Sanders to get as many reps as possible. Also if Wallace comes back let him have the green dot perhaps. He had it for a week earlier in the season.

If anything you bench guys who you know won't be here next year, for contract reasons or age reasons (Clowney?) and see if there's any young guys who can stick around. Otherwise nothing to change. Roll Bryce out there and make him throw the ball.

I think our defense is so very bad we need to keep everyone capable out there. Clowney has been a bright spot.  We can rotate young guys in but those dudes aren't getting play time cause they're not very good atm

Yup, since Bryce played mediocre-to-good for a few games, Canales will be obligated to run it back  We all know how that ends.

Only difference in the Panthers case is they are now eliminated from the playoffs at this point is not just for this season but the next 5 years.......
