Our Rookie CBs are in good fortune.   They not only are getting thrown to the fire but they are now facing just about every possible type of WR your can face in the NFL.

Height KB, Funchess and Olsen

Speed (Ginn, Brown and Byrd)

Combination of Both (Stephen Hill)

When they face the rest of the NFL it isn't going to be anything they haven't already seen in practice everyday.

That can't help but be a benefit for them.

The Panthers receivers are at a disadvantage because they will not be tested anywhere close to what they will see on game day. I expect all the receivers to look better than they actually are in practice with the lack of experience/talent in the defensive secondary. So, the advantage in match ups will favor the DBs and WRs of every team the Panthers face this season.

Yes, they are going to be taken advantage of by the likes of Mark Sanchez and Blaine Gabbert let alone the best of the best in the league.

The issue is no matter how great the LBs and DTs play, they are going to be left vulnerable as a total defense by the secondary. Opponents will play the flats and deep 3rd of the field all day.

When it comes to the fantasy football talking heads, expect them to highlight the receivers facing the Panthers as their go to picks every week (even Torrey Smith in week 2).

Paxton Lynch is looking great in camp!

Remember in 13-14 when Norman blew a coverage against Buffalo that cost the game and everyone on here was calling him a dumbass and a loser?

I remember Rivera commenting that Norman did his own thing on that play instead of the defensive play that was called which landed him in the dog house.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
