How's Eric Reid Doing so far as a Panther?

Besides putting Ertz in a body bag... Eric Killmonger Reid brings run stopping attitude and pain. Refs stole an interception from him for sure. He has missed some tackles yes however this guy looks like a heat seeking missile in run support. Players are being hunted when he is on the field. Good signing Carolina. I expect him to get better as the season goes on. Look for more interceptions and more forced fumbles =)

How? lol Dude looked pretty in shape to me. 

Rust-wise I meant. He's been late to diagnose his responsibilities and a little late to the ball but he looked better against the Eagles. He's still getting into the groove of the defense so it was expected to take some time to get up to speed.

In my eyes he's got a game sealing INT for us to help outweigh some missed tackles and busted coverages. I'd think he can only get better from here but I gotta say seeing him shoving teammates on the sideline wasn't good. Don't think anything will come out of that but during the season we never saw anything close to that in  2015 or last year, and it really shouldn't be happening with our locker room.

It is obvious he is getting better and more comfortable each game. I wouldn't mind offering him a reasonable extension. It would be nice not to be ancient in the secondary for once.

 

    Pretty much stole my thunder. Thanks man.

So far I'm happy with him and glad he was signed.  He'll only improve as the year progresses and he gets in game shape and more comfortable with the defense.  

I don't care about any of the off the field stuff as long as it doesn't become a distraction.  Personally, I don't really care what any athlete says about anything not sports related.

When did this happen? I didn't see any of that, I don't think. I saw multiple guys working to fire up the defense. Everybody does it differently. When they had the camera on our sideline not just Rivera, which really didn't happen much at all.

He’s a lot bigger than I thought. He’s getting better each week and hopefully by the playoffs he will be playing lights out.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
