fred taylor to the pats

Word was that the Panthers wanted Laurence Maroney over DeAngelo Williams.

If not for the Pats, that would have been the third time the Panthers had a choice between two backs and took the wrong one :sosp:

With Maroney it hasn't been production as he had a great rookie season and looked to be the real deal. I think the injuries is whats hurting him. I would say the same thing happened to the Panthers with Biacabutuka (sp?). Great running back just had too many injuries. I don't really fault a team when a player ends up being an "injury bust".

I do (to a point) if there are red flags ahead of time. And there were with Maroney. Bikabutuka too.

Having the original Biakabutuka was enough. I'm glad we didn't get to see the sequel.

    • I just want somebody to settle into that Hangartner role and I may give Mays too much credit. He played so well early and has fell off since injuries crept into his vocabulary.  He was struggling to get push on those goal line runs today. 
    • You cannot say it doesn't matter who is playing QB ever in any circumstance. The first two games of the season, Bryce was standing in the pocket with time missing throws left and right. We were running the ball well, but even the gimme throws Canales was setting up, Bryce was missing. Then you start Dalton, boom easy win at Las Vegas. By week four's end, three of our best defenders are seriously injured, center injured, 2nd best veteran WR hurt, and best veteran WR quitting on the team.  Canales is a rookie head coach, and he definitely has had some see what sticks moves. But players are being schemed open, the rookies are progressing nicely, and you have the albatross of some terrible lack of talent to phase out. I give him credit alone for pulling Mingo, Thomas, and going with the better/younger producing players. The scheme is better, he just needs better players and I am not going to write him off until he gets more talent, starting with QB!
    • I don’t want this to be another Daniel jones situation.
