The Carolina Huddle

We have so many new fans on this forum.  Love to have them and happy they have seen the light and realized the Panthers are the best.

What they don't know is this forum is the best in the NFL and possibly all sports.

It starts at the Top  with Jeremy Igo

Not only is he our Owner/Moderator he is an incredible photographer.   Some of the best football pictures I have ever seen are from Jeremy.

SCP and PhillyB both incredible writers.  Write some of the most insightful and hilarious post known to mankind.  Don't forget to Buy 15-1 (on my to do list)

LilSmitty09 arguably some of the best videos you will ever see.  Including TV and any other medium.  They are top class and worthy of awards.  Truthfully

Those are just a few that come to my mind.  Plenty more. I know I missed other but you get my idea.  This forum is full of knowledgeable fans and though we have our trolls and haters. For the most part we have the best forum in football.

I have been a member of this forum for as nearly long as it has been around.  I joined this and the Charlotte Observer Panther forum (now defunct) about the same time. 

So here we are one week from winning the Super Bowl.  Those of you that are new. Welcome to the best forum in the NFL.  Those of you that have been around for many years like I have.  We have argued and agreed over a billion different topics.  But congrats to all of us for being #1 fans and believing in our Team through Thick and Thin.

Go Panthers...... Super Bowl 50 winners.

I want people here to understand that just because they're a new fan it doesn't mean they will leave after this season. My mom didn't give a poo about the panthers until their superbowl year in 2003-04 but since then shes been a die hard panther fan she knows more about this team than probably most of you here. so remember just because some people are now just jumping on the bandwagon it doesnt mean they're going to leave after the season. embrace them love them and treat them like family because they are.

 

One team two states. Keep poundng

    • I think you've nailed what we need right here.  Rodriguez and Thieneman would be my choices, Thieneman in the first and Rodriguez in the second. Let everyone else eat up their picks on the crop of WRs and linemen. Then make a push in free agency for the top center.
    • Vernon Gholston vibes?  had 14 sacks at Ohio State in 2007; 45 games in the NFL:  0 sacks.  
    • I want a high impact player, but a true FS who could qb the secondary might be more effective than we realize.  I don't think Moehrig is that guy (I think he is overpaid, however).  I want a flashy, high impact player, but we could use defensive qbs at ILB  and FS.  By upgrading skill AND adding vision and leadership, could we get better than if we added an edge or OT? I am not sure that I believe this myself, but I try to look at things from all perspectives.  Here is some devil's advocacy stuff: 1. EDGE-We are freaking out about the pressure we put on the qb from the edge position.  However, Jones II and Wonnum missed a total of 22 games. Scourton was a rookie and Princely was a third rounder.  Wharton sucked (not sure if he was used properly--a hybrid who can rush from the 5 tech or 3, etc), and this put more pressure on Scourton and the other edge players.  This year, we get Jones II, Scourton should continue to evolve with Princely.  Perhaps another rookie is not what we need.  Maybe a veteran situational pass rusher.  2. OFFENSIVE TACKLE:  Of course, we need an OT, but the draft is loaded with OTs that can pass block but struggle in run blocking--so a rookie at LT might not be the answer for a team that wants to run first.  What to do?  I am not sure.  I see Nijman returning after testing the market, but who knows? 3.  INSIDE LB:  A huge need, regardless of how you spin it.  However, I see a few free agents who would be solid here, and I see the second round having a few ILBs with starting potential.  I do not see an ILB worth the first round pick unless a freak falls to us. 4.  With veteran defensive backs, a young, intelligent FS could fit in nicely. Intelligence is key--like the way Luke made the front 7 better. "A good, intelligent free safety (FS) acts as the "quarterback of the defense" transforming a unit from good to great by acting as the last line of defense, communicating pre-snap adjustments, and anticipating plays before they happen. By reading the quarterback's eyes and diagnosing offensive schemes, an intelligent FS acts as a "centerfielder" who can neutralize deep threats and mitigate errors made by cornerbacks or linebackers."
