I got to admit I'm a tad bit concerned with the injuries to the secondary right now.   The secondary coach is going to earn his money trying to get these new guys up to speed as soon as possible. 

Speaking of our secondary/Assistant Head Coach Steve Wilks, if anyone hasn't read his bio and accomplishments with the Panthers, it should provide some comfort. Mr. Wilks knows his stuff. http://www.panthers.com/team/coaches/steve-wilks/7bb29f80-20fd-4675-92b1-39f9636cc275

Yeah I know who he is, great coach and they are lucky to have him.  He still has a tall order ahead of him and there's only so much he can do.  Here's to hoping he can get the best from these guys to keep it together for the rest of this magical run they are on.

I didn't intend my post as a response to yours, just used your mention as a lead in. They can't work miracles but the pass D is in pretty good hands with McDermott and Wilks.

That's kind of what I was thinking, you lose Hardy, but Josh Norman is now JNo. Luke is light years better in coverage. add Shaq, KK and Star on DL. I think we're at least as good overall with what we have. This is going to be a don't let them get behind you scheme, I'd guess. I remember in 2013, we'd give up yards, but once we got you on the short field in the red zone we were able to play our game and not allow points. 

We're getting our pass rush from inside and running stunts with TD and Luke with run-support from Roman, Coleman, Klein and Shaq. 

Totally different schematics and CJ is still kicking off the dust. Kyle Love, Dwan and Mario are getting good penetration as well. 

The good thing about the inside Rush is that the better teams we are going to play have pocket passers unless we run into the Seahawks again, but we've seen them enough to know how to play them and we'll have homefield advantage to show off our 12th man. 

With our sideline-to-sideline LBers, dink and dunk isn't going to get it done and I feel pretty confident in our offense's ability to score in bunches.

Call Victor Hampton he'd be down.

I want to know how the CB plays out next year. Do we let semi crazy Norman go and save the big bucks? Draft and see what to do in FA? 

I was just thinking about this exact dilemma. I mean, how many teams even have a lock-down corner? Not many I'd wager, and it's looking like we are building more with the trenches and on our passing/rushing game. 

Truth is, we need DBs across the board and with KB coming back, our passing game should be even more dominant. 

Roman will be gone, CJ could be cut and we're gonna be looking to lock-up Star and Short for the long-term. 

I feel 100% confident we're gonna look to tag JNo for the next 2-seasons and will be drafting our future defensive backfield for the future along with trying to upgrade wherever we can through the draft and picking-up cheap vets wherever we can to help bring-along our youngsters.

that seems to be the blue-print anyway. 

Theres no rush in trying to improve our OL/WR or LBs as we are set there. 

Maybe we draft another DE to bring-along? I just figure we'll be looking to sell high and buy low as far as our DBs go, knowing that our personnel can get it done.

im of the policy "if it ain't broke, then don't fix it. Despite all our injuries, we're still undefeated and definitely diverse enough to add whatever wrinkles in the offense we can implement and we still haven't seen what our offense is truly capable of while KB is on the mend and Funchess is raw with still a ton of upside. 

Whatever happens, as long as we have our core-intact and continue to improve on our weaknesses, I'm excited as I can be about our team as a whole for the foreseeable future.

God you guy's are a bunch of scary bitches. Our team is not a hand full of players.  We win because we play as a team not because we have elite talent. poo we have not even lost a game this year and the fuging cards are going to beat us????  Palmer has not even won a playoff game and they have only faced one playoff legit  team this season. This is our year and next man fuging up.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Right, so basically what I said in my first post about this last night. Tepper needs to use that big wallet of his in one of the few ways it can be used in the NFL given the cap.   Give Scourton a bigger signing bonus but not a fully guaranteed deal. Everyone wins in that scenario as if Scourton is smart and hires good money people, he'll take that bigger signing bonus and use it to make more money in the end over the next 4 years than if he just had his fully guaranteed deal and a smaller signing bonus.

      It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ
