“I fully expect to see Drew Brees, just knowing the competitor he is and the type of guy he is”, linebacker Thomas Davis said. “I have to be smart with this”. “It’s an injury that you don’t need surgery for, so it’s just a matter of waiting it out”.
“Again, day to day”. But, the quarterback admitted he had to find the best balance between rest and rehab.
Did you know something was wrong after you took the hit? He is also performing rehabilitation that is related to throwing, he said, and called renowned throwing consultant Tom House to discuss how his injury might affect his mechanics.
“I’ve been at this a long time”.
According to the ESPN Pick Center the Panthers are a -175 favorite coming into this game, but as with any other National Football League game; anything can happen once both teams step on the field. “I’m not going to ask”. “Josh, 14, I’m 12, and the opportunities you get to share something like this as a family, it’s unique”. You knock a quarterback out, the chances of that team winning is lowered …
“I’ll have to evaluate that when the time comes”. Kuechly missed practice Wednesday and Thursday while waiting to be cleared by an independent physician from a concussion he suffered in Week 1. Carolina also has controlled the clock for more than half of the first two games of the year through their tailbacks.
The Panthers have opened 3-0 three times in franchise history and went a team-best 5-0 in their latest such start in 2003.
What is your confidence level in you playing on Sunday? A turnover stops it so we’re not really looking at hidden yards, but you might look at a ball that lands on the ground when it should have been fielded. “It’s not going to reveal itself right away because we’re keeping it from happening”. So I learned so much about my shoulder and how to manage my shoulder. And as Payton noted, those are just the penalties that were accepted. I continue to fine tune and add or tweak each and every offseason.
When I hear people go insane about the mere idea of tanking, I wonder: is it just because we’ve been conditioned to believe in things like: don’t give up, don’t ever give up? In the end, lose a lot, we the fans will cry and feel ashamed and use words like: embarrassing!
If you’ve forgotten about that game, it’s understandable.
“He is a game changer”. If so, he’ll step in for AJ Klein, who has filled in admirably in Luke’s absence. He was held out of actual practice, but did some stretching, which is a very good sign that he could be closing in on a long-awaited return to the starting defense.
Whoever the signal caller, they will have a somewhat underwhelming group of pass catchers to throw to out wide.
