Riverboat Ron's Revenge - Panthers Week Thread

Per Schefter looks like Maskins will be starting on Sunday:

Sense out of Washington this week has been that it would be challenging for QB Alex Smith to return from his calf injury this week. And now today, Dwayne Haskins is taking the starter reps at practice, and is tracking to start Sunday vs. Panthers.

Any injury news on Gibson?

Antonio Gibson (turf toe) and Cole Holcomb (concussion) are also participating in individual drills, per team PR.

Any injury news on Gibson?

Ron Rivera said RB Antonio Gibson looked good today. Took a number of reps. Looked positive.
on Alex Smith, not sure yet when he'll know -- maybe tomorrow; maybe Sun morning. But he said he was encouraged by Smith's movements and stepping into his throws. latter had been an issue

Earlier this week, there was some -- some -- optimism regarding Smith. Hard to know right now. was all about his progression, would it be enough. know more tomorrow; clearly Haskins getting ready to start.


Rivera could possibly be playing possom, so to speak.

I think Trashkins is under center Sunday. I’d be surprised if Gibby played at well

I really don't want to see Smith until he takes all the reps and has a full week of practice. Play DH cause he simply gives us the best chance to win... unfortunately.

We really need this win.

Almost finished watching "the tape" (quite a presumptuous word when used by a not so knowledgable fan ^^) from last week's game.

I want to highlight that I am NOT hating on Haskins, that I understand the decision not to cut him because if Alex is not healthy Dwayne gives us the best chance to win this important game, and finally that I thought he had a very good game against the Seahawks, even early on he was more accurate than I remembered, and didn't leave that much down the field.

I'm posting this gif for selfish reasons, because I know you guys may have interesting takes on this play.

I feel like he has pre-decided he's only gonna look to the left side, and thus never sees Terry getting open on the corner route. It's not a dangerous throw to make on 1st and 10, just loft it towards the corner of the endzone where only McLaurin can get it. It seems like quite an any throw, and I just thinks he never saw it, but is it more difficult than it seems because of the flat corner ?

They scored on the next play (throw to McKissick), so no big deal, but I feel like it's a situation you'd like him to be able to see, and a throw he should be able to make.

I really don't want to see Smith until he takes all the reps and has a full week of practice. Play DH cause he simply gives us the best chance to win... unfortunately.


Sorry but I think Alex at 75% is better than Haskins.

Sorry but I think Alex at 75% is better than Haskins.If what we saw in his last game was 75%, then no it isn't.
