Carl Has Three Chances To Live

I can't disagree here. I'm watching out of habit as it is, but if something miraculously saves him, I'm pretty much done, and will just follow the comics.

Season 9, 10 and 11s "big bad".

If you want to know, I will tell you under this spoiler: [spoiler]They are people who are wearing the skins of the walkers. But they are very vicious. It has been rumored that the Mother in FTWD may turn out to be their leader, Alpha.[/spoiler]

I agree that the bite looked almost "too clean." The reason I say that is that IF the bite was two episodes back the least we know is that he did change his shirt since then which would lead me to believe that maybe some time had elapsed. But, the clean bite looked very recent.

The reason he could possibly be immune is that in the Pilot episode in season one Rick was in the hospital and whatever IV/medication he had might make Rick immune. We also know that Carl has Rick's blood from the transfusions on the farm. Again, it's probably a stretch but possible. I've also read that it's possible that the walker bites might be coming less virulent over time. Anything's possible with this series but I would hate to see them kill Carl off. I think he's central to the story. The other thought I had was they will kill him off but not until he somehow kills Negan. There's lots of speculation and who knows how it will play out.

Earlier fatal walker bites have looked quite similar to that one. Also, Gimple said on Talking Dead that this will "play out like all the other bites have played out" (paraphrase). It's done, he's dying. I wish I wasn't spoiled beforehand. Now I'll never know just how that scene would have impacted me.

I like the Whisperer theory too, but I think Carl's bite looked like a Walker. Biting is not an MO of a Whisperer.

Yeah he was fired, but as to why though who knows

That's true. I guess it could be a benefit to the progress.
