Who is Your Favorite Panther of All Time?

Who is your favorite Panther of all time? I'm not asking you who you think is the best actual player, but who you enjoyed watching play in a Carolina Panthers uniform the most. My pick may seem unoriginal but I have to say Steve Smith. The guy brought it every game and was always fired up. If he didn't get you fired up, you must have no pulse.

Jake Delhomme & Kevin Greene are Honorable Mentions for me. How about you?

Outside of the usual suspects, Nick Goings is one of my favorites.  Underdog type who worked hard, did his job and stepped up when needed.  Jordan Carstens is in this category as well, though his career was cut short..

​I always love the guys that are willing to do the little things to help his team win ball games. Goings would do anything asked. Great Panther!

​Goings was a beast the second half of 2004... in the last six games of that season, he had over 900 total yards (or 151 yards a game). It baffles me why we never gave him a lot of time at running back after that. He was so much better than Stephen Davis was in 2005.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
