I know the Panthers team I've watched all year. Which goes back to my point of there being something wrong if we need to give Hunt that kind of workload. We're talking about a team that got blown out by 26 by the bears. [Reply]

Sure it does. After the game it is a short week with the Raiders on Friday. Andy always errors on holding guys out when possible. Doubt they would want him to play any significant downs and then have to be ready in 5 days. If they only carry 3 back, all of them are going to get a good amount of touches if the game is not close.

The Panthers have been a bad team no doubt. Chiefs are favored by 11 right now. Fine if we want to believe they will cover that. But if they are up by less than 3 scores we'll be feeding the Panthers a steady diet of Kareem Hunt in the 4th quarter. Which is also not a problem. Pacheco will be back soon and Hunt's workload will come back down to earth. [Reply]
Guys with longer term injuries under Andy will get a limited week of practice, then a full week of practice and THEN they get activated the following week. He ALWAYS does this unless you're a genuine superstar and/or we don't have an alternative.
Pacheco's not a superstar and we do have an alternative.
I'd have probably played him for 5-10 snaps just to get him use to contact and game speed again, but it shouldn't surprise anyone at all that Andy isn't. This is absolutely his M.O. [Reply]

What is the deal with him, anyway? Is he hurt? Butthurt? Nuts? Haglunds? Fucker hasn't taken a snap all season.
I figure the answer is buried somewhere, but I don't feel like looking for it. But at this point, we either need to get him on the field at least until Pacheco is 100% or kill him and sell his organs. [Reply]

I think it’s PTSD. And no, I’m not joking. [Reply]
