Sherrod Martin could start

Its going to be a long day for him.

This year, the Panthers' second second-rounder has yet to record a tackle on defense (though he does have three special teams stops), but could be the last line of defense against Larry Fitzgerald, Anquan Boldin and company Sunday. That's a tough spot for a guy who lost out on playing time to seventh-rounder Captain Munnerlyn after a quiet training camp

I know we all complained about Gamble not being on Fitz last go round....for some strange reason I wouldn't mind Captain getting some time w/ him. He is by far the most aggressive of the bunch.

Hopefully Martin shows us something to justify his pick....maybe he will show more in his natural spot.

i'm looking forward to it. that is where he should be playing anyway.

i'd like to see what he could do at safety. it's better than having teal there, imo.

at this rate any change i'm going to be happy with. just shows that they are losing some of their inhibition as far as using the younger unproven players.

just a baby step towards moore getting the start *waiting for catdaddy to start going on a tirade about how moore isn't the savior or something*

We don't play man to man, it won't matter who is on him at the line, they will just let him run free in the middle of the field to be picked up by a backer or safety.

Just like last year.

not sure you noticed this but they are doing a good bit of man coverage this year. they are mixing it up a good bit.

New defensive coordinator = small possibility of playing differently.

    • It’s not new. That particular claim has largely disappeared because it has become untenable, but a few games into his rookie year when the playbook/gameplan/personnel/everything was terrible there was endless claims, posts, even threads made that Bryce Young was physically incapable of throwing the ball 20 yards downfield in the NFL. It was also argued that physically throwing the ball 20 yards in the NFL was somehow different than college. Once he threw the ball 20 yards, the goal posts moved to 30 yards, etc. I’m not going to use the search function for you, the point wasn’t as much that one claim as it was that that was one claim out of many that has made it very difficult to have a reasonable discussion here.
    • I mean, I can get a ball downfield 40 yards.  There would be a couple massive issues with me doing it.   My ball placement would be off the charts bad.  Second, for me to get it 40 yards I'm gonna have to moon it......which would give DBs the opportunity to make plays on balls that wouldn't exist if a better QB were throwing it.  Which is all an exaggerated explanation of the Bryce issue.  To many play the literal game w/ Bryce when it comes defending him.  Every NFL QB likely can loft one up around 50 yards.  Every QB in the NFL can't get a ball 30 yards downfield in the same windows.  Or the same ball placement.  That's the Bryce issue.    But I also think mixed into that is just his QB DNA.    Take a young Brees, it was in his DNA to stress defenses and takes shots.  He would flat out be Delhomme-ish at times.  Which is coverage and assignment altering.  Brees would throw balls into triple coverage 40 yards downfield.  Is that smart? Sometimes it is.  Not because the play gets made but you force the secondary to play honest.  
    • Tbf were not going to the superbowl this year so the development of our young wr is invaluable  As a side note 5 of our wr are in their 2nd year or less ( t Mac, Coker, tremayne, horn, x)  It's def a promising youth movement
