They we speculating on who it could be on the facebook post...  I'm sure Smitty and Pep are in there, but the guy he was talking to sounded like he had a bit of a a southern drawl and only guy I could possibly think of was Hoover.

Southern drawl? That was a deep-ass voice...had to be Peppers.

That voice had to be Pep. 

Stewart in his retirement speech alludes to 89 being involved in something awesome coming up. 

So I think those 2 are easy calls.  They also are the 2 most likely actual HOFers.  

So I think the expansion is just those 2.   Anyone else added then starts a debate with so many more folks IMO.  So if you argue a Kasay or Gross or whoever too many others can be brought up now and later that are or would be comparable.

The first group should be Peppers and Smith with them both getting statues and their numbers retired.

After that they should honor Delhomme, Gross, Kalil, Rucker, Minter, and Muhammad. No jersey retirement or statue.

They should also consider Stewart, Walls, Greene, Bates, Kasay, and Charles Johnson.

Keep retired numbers and statues a small group. Future HOFers (Peppers, Smith, Cam, and Luke) and people who define Keep Pounding (Mills and Davis).

That's way too many people. I get where you're coming from, but we can't add everyone to the hall of honor. 

Honest question, how many people do other teams have in their hall...especially the ones that have been around a lot longer than the Panthers have?

No statues. The only other player I would consider getting a statue would be TD due to his very embodiment of Sam Mill's message to Keep Pounding.

c'mon... you know Smitty was all about that Keep Pounding. Dude was the the most motivated person we ever had on the field, and he came back from pretty bad injuries too.

First ballot HOF. He deserves a statue, and so does Pep.

TD doesn't deserve a statue, and never will. Hall of Honor? Sure. When he retires.

      If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't disagree, but you're not giving our offense enough credit, and I'm not saying we would win the SB, just that we would be contenders, which we would have been. The Bengals had a horrible start to the season last year and it caused them to just miss the playoffs by one game, but had they made it, they absolutely would have been contenders in the AFC.  They had a bad defense, probably worse than ours will be this year, and you can't convince me that we don't have a better offensive roster than they had last year.   We have a Top 10 OL, two 1k rushers from last year, two 1st round WRs, one of the best slot WRs in the league, and then Coker.  Like I said, their Top 2 WRs are better than ours will be this year, but we take them in every other spot, OL, RBx2, and our 3rd/4th WRs.   If Burrow was able to turn that team into a contender last year, no reason he couldn't do the same with our roster this year.  And hell, I think our offensive roster is better than KC's last year too, and while I know their defense did a lot of the heavy lifting last year, if you give Mahomes an improved offensive roster around him, he's going to be THAT much better himself. A Mahomes, Burrow, or Allen would be able to win the South by outscoring teams.  And yes, come playoff time against an Eagles or Lions juggernaut, our defense probably costs us the game, but that doesn't mean we wouldn't at least be contenders. If Bryce can prove me wrong and his supporters here right, and be THAT guy for us this year, I genuinely think we can be a real playoff threat in 2026 once we add a few more pieces to the defense and then be a genuine SB contender in 2027 if the team keeps improving. We're the 2022 Detroit Lions right now.   Great offensive pieces, tons of holes on defense, but if things go right we'll just miss the playoffs (like they did) and then be right in the playoff hunt the next year (like they did) and then be contenders the following season (like they did when they were the #1 seed).

      Hornets have had the worst luck of any professional sports franchise this century. Constantly drafting a slot below the generational talent, all because of the lottery done behind closed doors. It's been brutal and frankly unfair to be a diehard fan of this franchise, and I don't blame anyone for cutting out the stress.

      We will see if there is any logic to those sort of packages. I haven't seen a ton of evidence that Evero operates that way.
