fretgod99 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Eligible for return on November 26. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/20757278/carolina-panthers-place-te-greg-olsen-injured-reserve That's a pretty rough for an inconsistent offense. He's one of the best tight ends in the league and Carolina doesn't have a truly consistent receiving threat (at this point) outside of him.

Dome Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 One of the best in the league. Huge loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BossierWhoDat Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I never root for injuries and if it was my call I would rather him be on the field, but this could help the Saints get their first win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersuavesky Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Cam now has no other player with consistent hands. Maybe Samuels can help fill the void. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretgod99 Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 It would help if Cam could be consistently accurate, too. He was bad week 1, which was to be expected following the off-season recovery. Did a bit better week 2 (but still does things like miss a wide open McCaffery at the goal line for a gimme TD). Hopefully he continues to progress, otherwise it could get ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom cody Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 To bad. Olsen's one of the best tight ends in the league and a bright spot in a somewhat lethargic receiving corps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKillerNacho Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Going to be a huge loss. One of the only reliable receivers on that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSURacerDT55 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Might as well put Funchess on a 7 - 10 k diet and move him to TE like he should have been in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zithers2 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Thankfully in this eight game stretch we get two home games against divisional rivals, the Bears, a home TNF game (Philly), and home MNF game (Miami). If we can pull off 500 we'll be 6-4 heading into the bye and coming back against the Jets... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indifference Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 As a Cam Newton fantasy owner, maybe he is going to start using his legs more. Either way, as a Bucs fan this is plays in our favor since Olson will be out. Should be an easy W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just talking trash, the Panthers usually play us tough regardless who is playing QB. Their offense looks about the same if not worse than last year, this time around Bucs will have a couple more playmakers they aren't use to game planning for.

Hopefully he continues to progress, otherwise it could get ugly. Blocking had a lot of the problems from week 2. And dropped passes. Benjamin had a TD blasted out of his chest. I think Cam will be fine. He was night and day from the first game last week and will only get better as he throws more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
