Any status updates on Jeff Otah's knee problems? I believe he is key player for the panthers, but I have not heard anything about him recently. Did he participate in the player organized activies? Any recent interivews with the media?

Fat player's fat knee is fat.

You guys need to lay off of Otah... Seriously! According to his twitter page his knee is "Strong" and he's ready to play football... The pessimism around here is killing me!

Any news about his shoulder? I think I remember reading he was rehabbing it. I hope he's healthy by the time training camp gets underway.

This was the end of March

Panthers RT Jeff Otah is recovering from left shoulder surgery in addition to the knee problems that cost him all of 2010.

The shoulder procedure was done by Dr. James Andrews, and is expected to require 3-4 months for Otah to reacquire range of motion and strength. Beat writer Darin Gantt indicated that the shoulder injury is now more of a concern than Otah's knee. We're interpreting that to mean the knee woes are a thing of the past and the shoulder would keep him out of OTAs if there were any. Mar 31, 9:51 AM

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
