Charles Johnson: trying hard to improve his performance

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.

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

@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

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.

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.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
