I've seen enough...Leave Martin as starter.

Totally Agree- Hopefully this will be the end of the Charles Godfrey Experiment...

And for everyone saying it's just one game, I know it has been for Sherrod Martin but it has been a season and a half for Charles "I'll Get There Half-a-Second Too Late" and "I'll Hit Em But Won't Wrap-Up" Godfrey.

I was hoping the Panthers were going to try to upgrade at safety during the draft, and I thought they were trying with drafting Martin in the 2nd round. Then I find out they projected him to cornerback...

I was beginning to think Sherrod Martin would be another 2nd Round Bust by the Hurney Administration (especially after being outperformed by Captain Munnerlyn), but I think it is just a case where the Panthers tried to make Martin a CB and he struggled, but he looks pretty good in his natural position.

I'm hopeful Sherrod Martin can be a huge upgrade for the secondary. Let Godfrey be a backup option at safety/cornerback.

Martin should start but Godfrey is too talented to keep on the sidelines. We should try him at CB.

Martin played fantastic, and Looks like he might have stolen the starting job from godfrey. Gantt put in his last panther article.

FREE AT LAST — Any concern over starting a rookie at free safety against the Cardinals went away quickly, as second-round pick Sherrod Martin might have staked his claim to a new job.

To all of those fans saying that Fox was wrong to switch Godfrey to safety and Martin to corner...most of the draft gurus were saying that those were the positions they expected them to play in the NFL before either one of them even became Panthers, so it's not like Fox just pulled this stuff out of his butt.

I think our FO out thinks themselves sometimes, I wonder how it would be if they would have kept Godfrey and Martin in their normal positions to start with.

Martin has made more plays than Godfrey in only one start.

I'm not saying Godfrey can't play corner, but man he really does suck at FS. Hopefully Fox keeps Martin in there.

If Martin loses the job to Godfrey I wont be surprised

Godfrey? too talented? wha?

You do realize that NFL coaches do not listen to draft "gurus".

Name me one NFL head coach who cares what Mel Kiper thinks, and I'll show you a loser.

I mean...the guy played well. But he played well in ONE game. I think he deserves another chance at starting, but lets not get ahead of ourselves here...could be a case of beginners luck and he loses the game for us with blown coverage or a missed tackle next game. He's not Ed Reed quite yet....

[the butch]

if he can cover ground like he did in this game I don't see why we shouldn't leave him in there. We'll need that speed and instinct against Brees' nasty offense.

I was surprised Warner couldn't take advantage of Martin in his first start. When a team like the Cardinals sees a young guy out there, they most certainly will game plan for that. The fact that Martin held his own is even more telling when you consider that fact.
