GunnerBill Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Sad for him, blow for Panthers and bad for the league when young stars like him go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Ouch. That really sucks for him and them. Seems like a lot of injuries this year although it may not be any more than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Injuries suck. They're a part of the game, but they suck. Good luck with your rehab Mr. Benjamin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Makes me even more bitter I didn't get Funchess in a fantasy draft earlier today... he went the pick right before I was going to take him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Adam Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Ouch. That really sucks for him and them. Seems like a lot of injuries this year although it may not be any more than usual. It really feels like its more. But perhaps its because i'm paying a little more attention this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 delmas in miami too, according to deadspin It really feels like its more.

boyst Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share Posted August 19, 2015 Makes me even more bitter I didn't get Funchess in a fantasy draft earlier today... he went the pick right before I was going to take him. Makes me mad that it didn't happen Friday or after my fantasy draft. The PPP league here at TBD is drafting tomorrow @ 8:15. I knew to avoid Benjamin, and if you want someone to be sure to draft get Olsen. Either way, with my luck I will draft someone and they will get injured as soon as I draft them during the game.

YoloinOhio Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Wow. What a huge loss for the Panthers. He was targeted on nearly every passing play. I know that is hyperbole but that is how it seemed every time I watched them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Jerky Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 It just sucks injuries are part of the game... Well every sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Wow. What a huge loss for the Panthers. He was targeted on nearly every passing play. I know that is hyperbole but that is how it seemed every time I watched them. Yep. Dude was drafted to be their #1 and he definitely got targeted as such. Panthers WR corps suffers a major blow here. It just sucks injuries are part of the game... Well every sport. Undoubtedly NFL players suffer more injuries - or at least more severe ones - than other major sports. It extra sucks when it's in limited contact practice like this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Its really sucky we are one game into preseason and half the team is in rough shape. maybe i am paying more attention too> But Buffalo is getting creamed. anybody track this year to year or snapshots during the season? Thats analytics right ? Football IS a brutal game. But so many! so soon? Woe is Us !! I mean it too. This is tough sledding for the team and the fans both.

truth on hold Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Terrible just terrible. He looked great against us, you could see improvement from last year. Was it non-contact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Terrible just terrible. He looked great against us, you could see improvement from last year. Was it non-contact? Pretty much. Running a route in practice, planted and went for a swim move, then went down.

truth on hold Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Joint practices suck..dolphins also lost strong safety delmas to an acl in that game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Boy Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 I live in Charlotte and listen to local sports during the day. They are losing their minds over this. One guy called up and literally proposed that they tank the season because they are now a 5-11 team at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Joint practices suck..dolphins also lost strong safety delmas to an acl in that game Yeah, seems like all these joint practices are good for are injuries and brawls. I live in Charlotte and listen to local sports during the day. They are losing their minds over this. One guy called up and literally proposed that they tank the season because they are now a 5-11 team at best. Well, at least if that is the case, most of the tanking is already done for them.

Take a late round flyer on Ed Dickson. Just a hunch but Panthers other WRs leave a lot to be desired. Dickson had a good year a few years ago with Baltimore and has been ok in camp here. Oline not that good here and running game feels suspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
