I think it's disrespectful to put dixon in at QB now...

 

thought that as well. he came in to take 2 knees.

 

did anyone see rivera apologizing to marrone at the end? marrone looks like he said something like "that doesnt matter!" i bet rivera said he was sorry for trying the onside kick.

 

ej looked pretty good tonight.

 

for those of you who watched on nfl.com through their preseason package--did you get the carolina feed like i did? and if so, do you think they spent WAAAAAAAY too much time talking about how nice of a guy cam is, and how he's all smiles on the sideline, and how he cheers on his team mates so well? talk about being a mouthpiece for the team! i can remember 2 years ago, the knock on cam was he was "sullen" and would "sulk about" on the sidelines. it's as if the panthers management had a meeting and said "this is our qb for the next 10 years, this is the face of our franchise. every game, once a quarter, talk about how happy he looks."

I've lost my feed so I don't know how late it is, but I get the point. I thought very highly of him after college and the knee recovery. Guess I was wrong again.

I don't think that's far off from how it actually works.

How much longer do we have to put up with Crossman?

Probably stuck for the season, unless it quickly gets any more obvious what a problem this is. By that, I mean we have to lose like 2 out of a 3 or 4 game stretch on atrocious break downs, which is entirely possible. Yippee, we got rid of the worst coach in the NFL, but it cost the season. Love Whaley, cautious on Marrone, but last season's ST was horrendous!

very much like whaley, very happy with schwartz thus far, cautious on marrone, not optimistic about hackett, hate crossman. please don't keep a kickoff specialist with our lack of depth all over the roster and the rash of injuries we seem to incur each year

Did Robey muff a punt tonight? I see he has a fumble in the box score. This was an issue for him last year as well.

 

Indeed he did but I don't remember him ever muffing a punt or fumbling last year.

I was surprised Crossman didn't get the axe last year but understood he'd get a another chance because of Marrone's faith in him. Plus Marrone appeared to genuinely believe they didn't keep enough ST type players on the roster.

 

They changed it this year and last night we saw the results: they did a great job on punt coverage - I think Carolina only gained a couple of yards - and only gave up about 20 yds per KO return. Those are good numbers and substantially better than last year's so I'm okay with Crossman and don't understand why you wouldn't be also.

 

Or do you believe that Naaman "Camp Fodder" Roosevelt's muffed onsides kick undid all the things ST did well last night?

Bills and Saints are the only two road teams that won their games this weekend - so far. There are four games to go: Cleveland @ Detroit; Pitt @ Jints; GB @ Tenn; and Houston @ Arizona.
