according to teammates...

They had this discussiong on Mike and Mike this morning about the most respected player in their respective sports, and it got me thinking who was the most respected Panther. I'm sure most people will pick the same.

Current: John Kasey, Jake Delhomme

All-time: Jerry Richardson, Sam Mills.

Kasay hands down

For a guy to be here from the start and to help other along like Steve Smith. I would say the guys on the team would vote him most respected if the occasion presented itself. Mills was great, but here for just a short time. Too short.

I think Beason will be one looked up to one day as top 3 most respected.

He just does all the right things.

As far as Delhomme goes, if it wasnt for the respect of his teammates his job might would be in more of a jeopardy. He is the unquestioned leader of the offense. Everytime I hear Jordan Gross speak about Delhomme, he sounds like he is talking about an NFL Legend.

A lot of fans dont think highly of Jake because of his bad games, but there is not doubt that his teammates do.

But Im sure fans know more about Jake than teammates.

I love John Kasay but I find it hard to believe that the kicker would be the most respected. Just saying.

I agree with Delhomme and Sam Mills but as a coach not as a player.

I am surprised that no one has mentioned Moose. I know he left for the Bears and came back but if anyone has any respect for Smitty they have to see the influence Moose had on his career.

Others not mentioned, Ricky Phrole and Richard Williamson. Everyone always talks about Kasay being the lone original Panther left on the team but that is not true. Williamson has been the WR coach since 1995 and I think joined the team before Kasay but I'm not sure of that.

You're right. Saying the kicker is the most-respected player on the majority of teams would be laughable. But not in the case of the Carolina Panthers.

Like you note, Kasay is the last original Panthers player. Couple that with his faith and leadership in the lockerroom, and I think he's definitely one of the most respected guys in the lockerroom, if not the most-respected player on the team. Who did Smith go talk to after the incident with Lucas last year?

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
