Charles Johnson: trying hard to improve his performance

[Jmac]

The man knows he isn't making the impact that is expected of him.According to the buzz around practice is that he is putting in extra time trying to get it back. The absence of Hardy has hurt, but Charles isn't pinning his lack of production on that. Hasn't said his hamstring is a factor either. He has been a team player and no problems off the field. Research says he really hasn't been heavily double teamed either, just isn't getting to the QB.Zero sacks in three games.He is getting some pressures, but not closing the deal.Will big Frank's return game 5 help the situation, who knows.If it wasn't for Marios 3.5 sacks and the DT's getting sacks up the gut, they would be in deep trouble.If this doesn't improve, the team cannot justify paying that kind of salary next year.So Hardy is in limbo and probably gone and C.J possibly losing his mojo..a strength may soon be a weakness.Things change quickly in the NFL.

He's gonna have a 3 sack day I believe.

do you have a link for this or did you hear this lockerroom buzz with your own ears?

[Cary Kollins]

CJ had a tweet after the game saying something to the effect of "I can play better. I will work harder. I will be better."

@randywattson: I will train harder, I will work harder, and I will focus harder. I will pick my game up! I will earn everything that given to me #Panthers

@DNewtonespn: Rivera says Charles Johnson is the bell cow now and players looking for him to make the play. #Panthers

All I could find on this. Really wish OP would start including links or something with his threads

NFL nation David Newton with quotes from DC, CJ. Says he is coming in on Tuesdays (team day off) and trying to work on his game.Have a hard time linking things with this damn phone.It is not being lazy.When I upgrade it should help.

Gonna be so crazy to see Hardy and CJ gone if we end up having a poor year.

He also said this after the Detroit game...

@randywattson: I'll be the first to say great win. And I'll be the first person to say I gotta pick my game up big time #PantherPride #OntoTheNextOne

We desperately need him to step up, especially with Hardy out. But without Hardy it has to be expected Johnson's game takes a hit.

Hes been invisible

I really like Charles, hope he bounces back strong this week

[Ken]

We need him to be impactful asap. Not just in the passing game but the run game as well. He's getting worked in the run game.

 

If he plays mostly as the RE on Sunday, he'll be going up against a good RT in Ricky Wagner.  A good game against him would be a real confidence booster.
