guys give them time. They just switched gears and nearly knocked off the bears. Carolina is at the end of the most difficult part of their schedule. They play the rest of the season like they did today, there is no reason they can not win majority of the remaining games.

Don't have an issue with them using it sparingly to create mismatches. But not as their base offense.

Probably shouldn't have bothered to run it at all against the Bears, though. Even their power run game was lacking today.

    • While we all know that draft status means little about guaranteed performance, it seems to matter when it comes to second and third chances.  A seventh rounder, for example, would be cut and delivering pizzas long before an equal first rounder. Having said that,  the system (less so for his position, but who knows) matters.  The coaches matter.  His maturity matters.  He will compete with Barno and Clowney for snaps.  Barno (6'6" 245) is big for the position and is coming off an ACL injury.  He could play SAM LB and might be better suited for that position--but with Wonnum, DJ Johnson, and Eku Leota over there, Barno's athleticism has forced him to the pass rushing specialist side.  Barno has no QB hits or sacks in his young career (he is 25).  Chaisson--unlike Barno, had 2 sacks in 2023.  He is 24 and was drafted in 2020.  I am not optimistic, but the ability is there. Under these circumstances,  I do not see him being cut.  Barno's ACL should slow his development and Clowney is 31.  Clowney is up and down throughout his career, so you never know what you are going to get with him.  I also expect the Panthers to be watching the waiver wire, with the first opportunity to grab a pass rusher, but you know they don't get cut often.   
    • I would not give up any draft capital at this time , Our first rounder next year will probably be a top 10 pick ,  If we are to spend more cap space lets put it on a CB such as Gilmore .  We need to see what we have on our young WR core and beef up our defense a little more .
