Panthers are activating DE Charles Johnson

[slick325]

He'll likely be a situational rusher since he's just coming back. He may still have some rust...

 

[Toruk_Makto]

I think Greg Hardy showed us that elite pass rushers don't have rust.

Greg Hardy had a full offseason. Mini camp. Training camp. Preseason.

And wasn't coming off injury.

How in the world you equate these two situations boggles my mind.

 

[remdak]

Frank Alexander suspended for a year

Charles Johnson, Jared Allen, Star Lotuleiei, Kawan Short, Kony Ealy..I'm jealous.

As teams should be jealous of our O Line.

The same way people are equating a pass rusher with a WR and QB. Different positions. And it's not like the guy hasn't played or practiced all year, he played the first 3 games and got hurt and he's been practicing the past couple of weeks so my point is valid.

I got a feeling we are going to put on a show on Thanksgiving.


We usually kill teams when I have this kind of confidence about a game.

I felt it last year in the Saints game and 2nd Philly game.



Cowboys are about to roll the Panthers and there is nothing Jason Garrett can do to stop it.

LOL.

 

[jobberone]

Hope we don't have to blitz too much. Hope they don't shy from it if its needed either.

 

[Staubacher]

LOL.

That gave me a good chuckle too

So coming off injury and suspension are the same?

 

[Wayne02]

So coming off injury and suspension are the same?

He's coming off of a hamstring injury, you're acting like he hasn't played all year with an Achilles injury or something. He's been practicing the past couple of weeks and he's played 3 games this season. The only thing that will probably slow him down is his hamstring getting pulled again. He'll probably be in on passing downs. I know you want to try to convince yourself that this guy won't be a factor so you can ease your mind, but if he's healthy enough to rush the passer, he's going to be a problem. Hopefully, the offensive line will be prepared.

crud

he's pretty awesome.

They would probably then have a top 3 D-line

Coming off a hammy. He will be limping by the 2nd quarter

 

[Joe Realist]

He'll have to be ready for when they bench Tony after 7 TDs anyway.

I'll take those odds. Cassel more likely to play than 7 TDS

 

[DFWJC]

Hope so.

I assume they'll rotate him though.

It sounds cool to say you're 'activating' somebody.

I wish I had a career where I could be 'activated.' Maybe we mods could activate posters when they come back off of suspension or something. Give the naughty posters something they fell like they have to live up to.

 

[Alexander]

Charles Johnson is a good complimentary rusher in a scheme.

Different breed from Hardy, IMO.

That said, I expect them to get his opportunities.

Looking at how they go about calling games, they can maximize when he plays.

We just "activated" Romo and it did not stop people from losing their minds.

 

[etw926]

Stay ready Matt Cassel

How's Sanchez working out for you?

 

[Cowboysfan1975]

Good for them, because we are activating Smith.....he ain't going to have two bad games in a row!

 

[Joe Realist]

How's Sanchez working out for you?

about the same as your selfie - not quite so well.
