Yeah if anything Edwards is just waiting for a chance. He hasn't been given any chance to succeed that's for sure...

Armanti has contributed a fair amount this year when given a chance. He has had some really good blocks on the edge and he threw a decent pass on his only opportunity. It's a shame Smith was tripped up before he could catch it.

Panthers WR David Gettis (hamstring) is expected to be activated from the PUP list in Week 9.

The Gettis activation will require Carolina to drop a player from the bottom of its 53-man roster. Gettis beat out Brandon LaFell for a starting job when they were both rookies two years ago. It isn't crazy to think Gettis could eventually begin cutting into LaFell's playing time down the season's stretch.

if gettis pans out, i say move smith to the slot and have gettis and lafell as your wideouts.

Sorry, but I am going to have to disagree with this. IMO, you want a speed guy in the slot. Gettis is the fastest of those three. But, Gettis is built like a WR so that doesn't work either. Ah hell...

Although, upon further review. Smitty on a LB would be plenty of fun to watch.

Also, he looked plenty quick on that bubble screen. Did not realize he was that fast. Oh well, still not gonna miss him. Actually forget sometimes that he is even on the team.

      2024 post mortem

      By PadresPanthersFan · Posted

      The coach- Canales was a rookie hc and at times looked like it. But he did manage to revamp the offense, helped Bryce not look like the biggest bust of the draft, exuded positivity,  and made the panthers watchable again. We have a viable head coach for the first time since rivera The gm- Morgan had some hits and some big misses. Hits- the ol, Coker,demani, dj at first. Misses- almost every d player signed, brooks, the jury is out on x. I get what he was trying to do with brooks/Hubbard but it blew up in his face. Hopefully he learns from his mistakes. But he did trade mingo for a 4th, managed to get a 2nd rounder this year from the Rams and I am a fan of constantly churning the bottom of the roster The draft- x can be a solid player but not until he catches the ball, brooks was a high risk pick that didn't work out, Wallace, demani and Chau Smith can be solid contributors and showed glimpses, Coker and jt should be mainstays. And flipping a 7th round lb that was about to be cut for Jackson was a great move.  The offense- had its ups and downs but Bryce has turned from one of the biggest busts in nfl history to a potential franchise qb, that change is worth its weight in gold, thielen was crafty and underrated as usual, Coker was a gem, jt was the solid but has some growing to do, and Hubbard has been awesome, the o line was much improved as well The defense- well...they set records, injuries, poor coaching (imo), bad playcalling and just plain sucking this defense needs everything to change, we need horn and Jackson back and we get brown back but we need bodies and an identity. If they can do with the def what they did with the o then we can challenge for the division bc we already have some pieces there.  Overall- this was a growth year full of questions and some of the major ones were answered(qb, coach). For the first time in a long time the season didn't end depressingly and I do have cautious optimism for next year. But they need to learn from the mistakes of 2024 and if they do I like where this team is headed. On to the draft and 2025
