Just wanted to give the man-child a shoutout, 'cause he showed out last night. He's already busting through double teams at runs and screens aimed at targeting his side of the field. 

 

Love the way he swarms and I swear he's bigger, faster and stronger than both Luke and TD. Didn't get to see him much in coverage as it was our CBs being targeted diwnfield. 

 

There aren't going to be many rushers making it past that second level and I believe Shaqu was a big part of Luke getting 3 tackles for loss or no gain.

The youngster has tree trunks for arms and legs, he's a physical specimen and an oddity (I say that in a good way.) unbelievable he covers so well. 

 

His is physicality adds so much to an already physically imposing front 7. The guy can pass rush as an outside DE, cover, attack the ball on the line and attacks the ball carrier or takes out lead blockers at the LOS.

I thought he played great especially when he is attacking. I did notice on two runs, he seemed to be waiting for the RB and then whiffed on two tackles. I am not nitpicking just noticing where he can improve. I think he will be a great addition for us. 

yeah, he gets jukes sometimes, but it's usually at the line and our safeties are doing a great job of swarming when a rusher gets past that initial push.

TD was the hardest hitter I've ever seen play for the Panthers. In his prime he hit someone so hard one night I thought he was dead. He had to go to the ER. I think it was a special teams play, but it's been a long time. TD would almost murder players. He doesn't hit like that now, but in his prime good lord. Shaq doesn't hit like that, but I love his violent tackles as well.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Woukd be a great addition You know the issues from my prespective, 2 things the Panthers must do 1. Edge or pass rushers or 2 oline or 3 oline or as Andy Reid says, when in doubt, draft a lineman it is time   That oline is troubling plus a small person at QB  they   1. Can do a lot better than mayes at center, 2. and lewis has had injuries all season. 3. Moton should not have  been resigned long term, 4. corbett is a shadow and will probably be released  5 and Christianson coming off Achilles   6 and the kicker, would be Ickey’s contract if they decide to keep him INMO rookie and contracts will be needed to offset all that
