no.

too lazy to look for a link, but it'll be at least week 8 before he's considered.

Not true at all. He could very well suit up this weekend, although id be surprised if he did . they have 3 weeks from the day he practices (Wednesday) to keep him on the Pup, IR, or activate him... He could technically get the nod this Sunday.

We will however learn his fate by week 8

Can't imagine him making any difference.

I am wondering more how Murphy made a colbertesque disappearing act

One of the reasons none of the offensive guys are really showing out is lack of snaps by the offensive team as a whole. They cant sustain drives, cant get rhythm and basically suck.

this, a million times.

There are plenty of reasons, but like most people are saying, I blame the read option. It's a boom or bust play and it doesn't help the offenses rhythm at all. Running out of shotgun constantly is no good.

The play fakes are awful for Cam's footwork and timing. It always looks like he's throwing flat footed. I've seen him rush throws because he has his eyes downfield and wants to squeeze it in. I'd rather see him come out of the fake, in rhythm, survey, and step into his throw.

Gotta start looking specifically to hit LaFell, Olsen and Murphy underneath. Defenses can't take away both the deep ball and the shallow passes.

I would love to see us "roll the pocket" to let a big hitter delvelope...of course that would entail the guys up front actually blocking.

      Would you trade Ickey

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I didn't say I would have done it. I was just saying that I can see why some in the FO considered it. Everything was done to give Bryce weapons. Solidify the interior line thru FA. Get XL at WR in round 1 and then get the most talented RB in round 2. Take a TE in round 4, etc They were probably "assuming" he'd make a complete recovery during the 2024 season. I'm a skeptical person. I wouldn't have assumed he'd be ok in 2024. I personally would have taken another position in the 2nd for that very reason. But, if I were "influenced" to take him I would've argued to keep him off the field, especially seeing how things were going for us record wise. Conventional Wisdom says most backs don't get back to normal until two years after the ACL surgery. He was injured in Fall 2023. Having him suit up in 2025 would have been almost 2 years since the original injury. You have him for 3 year on low contract. If he balls out, you resign him for a couple of more years b/c he'd only have 3 years of tread on the tires. If he's ok but not great you let him walk.
