basically a lot of people, myself included, have been a tad concerned about Ealy's impact THIS season. i personally think he is going to be fine but would like a pick this high to contribute to the team in some sort of fashion this upcoming year. Some posters have already alluded to him possibly being inactive for game days because our d-line is sooo stacked.

 

this is just speculation of course but today in practice Ealy got an earful from Cam and the day before from Luke for not sprinting off the field.

 

here are some really good quotes from Ealy and the Panthers article and what he's trying to do this year...

 

"Cam was challenging me, and I went out there and showed him," said Ealy, the Panthers' second-round draft choice. "Then after practice, Cam was like, 'That's what I'm talking about. Do that every day.'

"Basically he was telling me, 'We're counting on you this season. This is what we need you to do in order to be more successful.' That's the type of support I'm getting."

 

 

notice Cam said THIS season. It's hard to find your place on a #2 ranked Defense that is already stacked in the position group that you are in.

 

"Saturday, when Johnson went out after tweaking his hamstring, there was no rest for the weary. Then came an earful from Newton, peppering the rookie between plays with well-placed verbal jabs."

"That does nothing but energize me. It feeds my fire," Ealy said. "I like it. I like to talk, too.

"At the same time, we all have one common goal, and that's to be victorious."

 

 

this is what you like to hear not only from Ealy but Cam.

 


"I'm very thankful for it, especially at this level where we're all men," Ealy said. "It could be every man for himself, but this team is different. There are a lot of guys on the defensive side of the ball – not just my position group – and on the offensive side of the ball helping out.

"I'm learning a lot from Chuck (Charles Johnson) and G. Hardy and really all the vets on the D-line. I'm basically like a little brother to everybody. They're making sure I know everything I need to know before going into this first game. Everybody wants so much for me."

"The list of Panthers pushing Ealy is headed by Ealy himself."

"Nobody has a higher expectation than God or me," Ealy said. "I expect to do so many great things, but I want to just be there and do my part for my teammates."

 

 

There are a lot of things to take away from this article imo. This is officially Cam's team. You can argue about Luke but imo Cam is the ultimate leader and face of the franchise. The organization is in good hands with Cam who has no qualms with stepping over to the other side and telling a defensive player what it takes to be apart of and successful on this team. And today's practice maybe a big stepping stone for Ealy. Nothing better than a high draft pick coming in and making an impact on our team.

No panic here at all. It's just cool to read stories like this and see progression because of it. I want him to make an impact immediately if possible and it's obvious the other players want him to as well

Oh yeah I was just posting this here for the ones that do lol. I think if he does see the field (still has to beat Addison and Alexander) around game 8 is when he's going to get everything together

i love this quote and it shows the state of the team right now, even through fiery practices:

 

"It could be every man for himself, but this team is different. There are a lot of guys on the defensive side of the ball – not just my position group – and on the offensive side of the ball helping out."

 

this is why i have hope for Ealy. and this is also why i have hope for the 2014 Carolina Panthers

People were complaining about how King wasn't making plays, being all sarcastic, and then King went off and started showing out.

Sometimes its just a switch that needs to be flipped.

It is a normal trend that pass rushers struggle at first when entering the league. Anyone would be a fool to write off Kony so quick. FOOL

This is so awesome by Cam, is anyone else surprised/impressed how fast he has risen to the leadership status?

 

I mean, he would not have done this two years ago, I get it comes with the territory of being older, but I never really expected him to be at this point or this well respected going into his fourth year the day we drafted him.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
