Panthers CB Captain Munnerlyn said he expects to return punts this week, which could render rookie WR Armanti Edwards inactive.

Probably a good call right now. Let Edwards learn and practice a bit more; it seems like he does learn and improve at a pretty quick pace. Maybe we can work him in around midseason?

With all the things that will probably go wrong in Sundays game (first game of the year always happens) it would be a terrible ideal to gamble on Edwards returning punts

I don't care who does PRs as long as they don't turn the damn ball over. In fact, I don't really care if they get any positive yards on returns as long as they don't muff or fumble.

Good ole Captain. Let him run the ship... Or at least the football on punt returns.

As long as he's not throwing laterals, I'm happy

yup. just run away from it if you think you might muff it.

I really don't understand the desire to upgrade the punt returner position anyways. Captain did just fine last year.

Must have been watching diff games. Although he did look 100x more confident this preseason. I think Captain will be way more confident in everything he does with a 2nd year under his belt.

I 100% agree.

I wouldn't care if we lined up all 11 for a block every time and never even tried a return. It is not like we ever take one to the house anyway!!!:mad2:

Captain always makes me nervous.

If Goodson was 100% with catching kickoffs, I'd try him at PR. But I've seen him drop a few in the endzone during kick returns. I do like the Cap'n back there though. He's not as bad as a lot of people seem to think. I think he's got good field vision, and he doesn't try and juke a whole bunch of players. He gets up field, gets what he can, and lets the offense go to work. While we're on the subject of returners... I thought David Gettis did a decent job on kick returns during the preseason finale. Perhaps he'll get a shot back there on Sunday!

Also, they tried Goodson at returning punts last year and he fumbled at least one, if I remember correctly. Not that he couldn't have improved since, of course.
