Not off to a great start this season.It appears Star will be out several weeks with either a stress fracture or a stess reaction, depending on which report you read, same foot as was injured last season. No timetable given.
This bothers me way more than Hill. Star is such a big part of the success the front 7 have had. Hoping he can be back in time for the regular season.Not off to a great start this season.It appears Star will be out several weeks with either a stress fracture or a stess reaction, depending on which report you read, same foot as was injured last season.

The only Ealy mention I have seen recently is that Oher held his own against him. I think Alexander is your breakout guy.Any news on how Ealy looks? He came alive towards the end of the season and might be a bit of a breakout player this year.
Damn - Nt a huge loss but you'd think we'd be able to survive an off day w/o losing someone. Countdown to Stewart hamstring pull….CB Chris Houston retired.

My brother went and took his kids.Anyone going to Fan Fest this year? I cant make it, wish I could.
How was the crowd? They had over 30k last year.My brother went and took his kids.Anyone going to Fan Fest this year? I cant make it, wish I could.
I haven't talked to him, but as you noted they had a record crowd.How was the crowd? They had over 30k last year.My brother went and took his kids.Anyone going to Fan Fest this year? I cant make it, wish I could.
This just reaffirms my belief that KB is going to have a really really good year.Went to camp today. First time. It was fun. We had a good day for it as it was warm but cloudy so we didn't get cooked. Wasn't packed but a pretty decent crowd was there.
Got to see Kelvin continue his outstanding camp. Made a couple of highlight catches and didn't drop anything that I saw.
Super quick. I enjoyed watching him make plays at South Carolina. Hope he makes the team. With him, Ginn and Brown, there is some really good speed at slot/wideout to go with the other big strong targets we have.Forgot to include Byrd. They are looking for ways to get him the ball and he looked pretty good. I am really starting to think they keep 7 WRs. Coach even hinted at it himself.
oh sure, curse J Stew. As if he needs anything more to worry about.Maybe.Can you drop any other players you haven't doomed already?Took him in an idp league.Star carted off with soreness in his foot that was injured last year. Team says they are just being cautious.
Look for Cotchery and Tolbert to have break out years.
It was great to see him hold on to that pass over the middle where he got hit in the back. His td catch was nice too.Benjamin looks like he really worked on those hands in the offseason.
This was my largest take away...very positive sign. Hope he can keep it up.Looks like Oher had a nice game. And those are some pretty good ends. If this is a trend the Panthers might have a serviceable LT.
Getting a feeling that this is going to be one of those "what could have been years".Well, that's not good
Can only hope this is an MCL problem and not an ACL problem...this sucks!Getting a feeling that this is going to be one of those "what could have been years".Well, that's not good
Yup, but still a 3-12 week injury depending upon the grade.Can only hope this is an MCL problem and not an ACL problem...this sucks!Getting a feeling that this is going to be one of those "what could have been years".Well, that's not good
I think so too, but aren't two of these guys a LOT better than one? Its very concerning, its not like Funchess was going to ride the bench while Benjamin played.BassNBrew said:Actually this isn't a huge concern for me. While he's a good player, I think Funchess can potentially fill his role.
Funchess hasn't shown the same step up now that Benji did. The idea was he'd have a year to grow into it because he needed the coaching. Now tweaked hammy and all a lot of pressure just fell on him. I am worried. Not panicked,yet, but worried.BassNBrew said:Actually this isn't a huge concern for me. While he's a good player, I think Funchess can potentially fill his role.
ZWK will probably tell you he's better than Benjamin.BassNBrew said:Actually this isn't a huge concern for me. While he's a good player, I think Funchess can potentially fill his role.
Wishful thinking? They're in pretty much the same spot as last year now, except I personally have no faith in Funchess. Hopeful sure, but I was looking forward to KB developing.BassNBrew said:Actually this isn't a huge concern for me. While he's a good player, I think Funchess can potentially fill his role.
That would be great. Why is he still a FA anyway?Do the Panthers give Reggie Wayne a call?
Maybe trade with the Giants who are pretty deep at WR and have a relationship with Gettlemen (sp) ?
He's 37 and hasn't broken the 800 yard mark in the last 2 years. Not sure how much he has left.That would be great. Why is he still a FA anyway? Don't see a big trade going down, doesn't seem to fit the Panthers mo.Do the Panthers give Reggie Wayne a call?
