When I was at TC this summer the player that stood out the most to me was Kurt Coleman. First day I get there, early, I go line up at the fence to see if I can talk to some of the players or coaches or DG when they walk by or get some autographs. Don't remember the exact times so I'm making them up but the time spent is more or less accurate. Practice starts at 9:30, Coleman is out there at 8:30 walking by signing autographs for everybody at the fence. Then he's out there doing work for a half hour before any other player even arrives. After practice most players leave at the end to go to meetings, or whatever/wherever but there's a few out there still working. Guess who? It was like this every single day I was there. Always the very first one there working and among the last ones to stay after. Now tied for most interceptions in the league. Thank you Dave Gettleman and thank you Kurt Coleman. Really can't be talked about enough here and he deserves all the credit he gets and more. Have him locked up for next year but I'd like to see us extend him after the year if we have the money and can get a reasonable deal.

This guy is coming on at the perfect time.   Can he be beat..  Yes..  Is he on the level of elite..  Imo not quite..  But hes damn close and he is learning from some of the best in the business.  

 

Offenses have to come in womdering where in the hell they are going to throw the ball.  Id like to see a very strong corner drafted after we adress the o line.   But i dont see it happening for a couple years.   Glad we have him locked up next year.

We all appreciate him, he doesn't get enough love on a national stand point. Does anyone know if he will make the probowl? Kurt we love you.

Last update a few days ago he was #1 vote getter at his position, and it was getting a lot of negative attention!  Folks were shocked he was leading over Honey Badger by something like 20,000 votes.  Getting a pick 6 on national TV and the most watched game of the year so far doesn't hurt!  It's not only us Panther fanatics stuffing the ballot boxes.  This guy is balling.

Josh norman if I am not mistaken was drafted in the 5th, and bene was drafted around there as well.  It is not out of the realm of possibility with G-mans eye for talent that we see another stout corner drafted.

A few comparisons with Mike Mitchell in this Carolina defense, but Coleman is a much better player. An arguable step down in athleticism and speed but better instincts, better discipline, and better ball skills as well. By far the best safety to grace a Carolina roster since Minter.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows

      Young QBs lead their teams to undefeated October

      I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.

      Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
