I think this guy really needs the ball in his hands. He has been explosive nearly every chance he gets to have the football. I really think this guy has a chance to be one of the best offensive players on our team. I wonder if theres any way we could get him playing as a slot receiver? If we could have somebody that could get him the ball, just seems to me that he could help our WR corps if that were possible.

Or even if he could just get some more touches as an RB, I just feel like we need to get the ball into his hands more often and see if he really can step up and help this offense.

As much as I love Goodson and what he brings, the dude looks really soft. Way too soft to be a 15-20 touch per game type of player. Keep him where he's at during kick returns and using him for the occasional carry or catch out of the screens, but don't expect him to get a lot of touches and we'll be fine.

Almost every time he really gets a solid tackle on him, he looks like he's going to stay down. I worry he couldn't handle the kind of hits our other backs take.

Goodson really does seem like he is getting it. I fear that the FO may let DWill go if he continues to do so well.

I could be wrong, but judging from the play by play and a few of the highlights I was able to watch, it seems to me Goodson “looked good” when he caught the ball out of the backfield in the shotgun formation. Sure he had the nice 9 yard run, but both DWill and JStew had big runs as well. And their runs seemed to have come when Tampa was expecting the run.

Goodson was stopped from the 4 yard line on consecutive runs late. Then they bring in JStew on 4th and goal at the 1 when everyone in the world knew what they were going to do.

The offense is simply way too predictable. Running the ball a ton isn’t the problem. It’s the way the plays are distributed that seems to be the issue. When you run the ball on 1st and 2nd down and then shotgun on 3rd seemingly every drive, you’re going to have problems especially when Moore is your starting QB.

Shotgun on 1st with screens to Dwill and JStew, try some 2 back sets with those guys, make it more unpredictable and help your QB out. The Panthers have one of the best offensive lines and two of the best backs in the league. Use them!!

      High look overview...

      Start with Bryce, this is like his rookie year. The 1st 2 games proved her was wired wrong and it looks like (we hope) he needed a time out to reset and be the player that was drafted. He's still about a year or more away from being a top 15 QB, if the Panther give him another playmaker or 2 (a top WR and a decent TE) and maintain that line. Canales deserves credit as playing that card correctly to motivate (or refocus) his QB for one last shot to decide his and the Panthers immediate future. As a Panther fans we should hope he keeps improving as we invested so much to get him. CJ Stroud will never have a season like he had, even if he stays a top 10 QB. He's got great character so I'm rooting for Bryce to continue on his positive journey. Canales is playing the week to week thing with bryce perfectly. Nothings guaranteed, earn it weekly which builds consistency and consistency is greatness.  Keep the O-line. They've got to extend Brady C, along with Mayes that have a real good 7. Great job Morgan starting with the big guys upfront.  I really hope they draft a DE or OLB in the 1st round. Getting Brown back with A Robinson and what DJ has shown that we can have a decent D-line. Need a CB in the early rounds/ or a time FA to go with Horn.  The future as to next year being good enough to challenge for the division is within reach. Just show progress (win or lose) every week. Kudos to Dan Morgan. Plays GM like a LB. Tackle the problem and move on, don't just hope it works out. Find guys with your playing mentality and work closely with your HC to share a vision. Teamwork starts at the top and flows down.

      Canes vs Panthers(Back to Back Games Thread)

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      Since we play the Panthers today and tmrw, we will have one gigantic double thread for both games. Today’s game is at 3pm and tmrw is 7pm.    After beating the Rangers and sending the those yankee bastards back to Cary, we get the Champs in the house.  Clean up the defense, no more lazy clears, and score baby score.  LFG CANES!
