I disagree with needing another TE. We're going back to the ground game and we have Brokel for that.

We have a franchise QB and a HC who says what we do on offense is basically going to be the same.

How does any of thy equate to going to being a run first team relying on RBs?

Our brand new GM even said he almost drafted a TE over Star

No, everyone has said that the core of the offense will stay the same but they're focusing on getting back to the running game. It's been reported over and over.

 

Where did I say we were going to be "run first"?  I didn't. But if you want to run the ball keeping a blocking TE like Brokel makes sense. I hope we run a more balanced offense. Olsen isn't a very good blocker, Brokel isn't a very good receiver.

 

Eifert would have been a value pick. We need more pass catchers, that's where his value is.

Agreed. 

 

It appears that many Huddler's, haven't realized that the team just wants to run the ball more EFFECTIVELY, and/or redistribute the yards (i.e. less for Cam, or less short yardage yards for him), as a preference. As you indicated, this has nothing to do with being a more run focused team, along with the give and take of what a game/defense actually presents you on game day. Folks are just showing their preferences. 

 

Yeah, it's no secret that the Panthers did very well Cam's rookie season with/and having missed two pass catching tight ends (especially with no legitimate 3rd or 4th receiver available). Therefore Brockel being there or not (two post before me, by JOAT), wouldn't make much difference in the big scheme of things. You could even argue, it would hurt the team more than it helps. 

 

Brockel's claim to fame so far, was the annexation of Puerto Rico play, during the very offensive 2011 Panther season (i.e., he really didn't do much).

      You see, this is why I'm more critical of Dave Canales

      By frankw · Posted

      His physical attributes aren't going to change on a new team so I have no idea how he would pan out elsewhere but I can logically assume those issues he has had with processing which was supposed to be his key selling point before the draft would follow him. He was also supposed to be someone who thrives when the play breaks down but he has been inconsistent at best on that and at times horrific. I think where we each take a fork in the road on the determination of Bryce Young currently is you seem to still be treating him as a rookie and not a third year QB still repeating the same mistakes while showing that he has no arm talent to overcome even the slightest bit of adversity. I've said all along his rookie year and his sophomore season that I would be willing to overlook his interceptions if he was pushing the ball downfield consistently and even if he turned the ball over forcing a pass here and there to keep defenses honest I would accept it. But he has nothing. There is no deep passing game here. He threw the ball 55 times in Arizona which was 30 more times than Kyler Murray and only had a little over 100 more passing yards than him. Legitimately you should read that again and ponder it. That is embarrassingly atrocious. Circumstances here are not ideal with the WR's and OL but we cannot normalize this. It is horrendous. And we need to swallow our pride and begin scouting QB's for the 2026 draft. In the meantime this cannot continue on much longer for the sake of the locker room. And the upcoming schedule isn't going to get any better. If there is a silver lining to any of this we are going to find out just who Dave Canales really is throughout the rest of the season. He isn't getting a pass either.

      I don't hate it but.....  eeeh it would take acquiring Kaprizov without giving up svech to make rod try Jarvis at 2C. Svechnikov/Aho/Kaprizov  Ehlers/Jarvis/Stankoven

      Carolina’s interested in Kaprizov

      By PantherChris · Posted

      Given the fact he declined buku bucks over on the HOF hockey board most don't think they will even get svech..... (not even canes fans) The $$$$ tag plus lack of leverage for Minny could end up seeing him dealt for somthing around what we got for Ranttanen....
