A lot of little clues are hinting at Sam Mills III pounding the drum Sunday. My question to the younger fans...

Do you have a sense of the importance of Sam Mills and Keep Pounding to this organization? What comes to mind when you hear the name Sam Mills? Please be honest.

 

I agree with SMIII pounding the drum, but here's why I ask: When Ricky Proehl ripped off his jacket last week to reveal the Sam Mills jersey, the reaction was a little more muted than I was expecting. It was SUCH a cool moment and there were a lot of cheers, but a lot of the younger faces were like...huh? 

 

I hope people roar on Sunday if Mills III is indeed the one that pounds the drum.

Maybe the stadium guys should Play a Sam Mills montage on the big screen to clue the younger/newer fans in to the importance of it.

While I never really watched Sam Mills play, I did get to watch Mark Fields play. Seeing the bond those two had and the effect that it had on that '03 team was really special. It was the mantra that team and they took it to heart.

A non-sentimental point, we have a badass team motto like some of the other classic NFL teams.

This one is pretty good.  (starting at 25 seconds in) They should play it just before announcing the drum beating and add in a few more clips of Sam to it.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
