I wanted Sweat. I'm glad we drafted Burns.

 

I did too, but days before the draft Sweat was getting the red flags treatment left and right. Member the one former coach said " You can not yell at him, he will shut down. Hes got thin-skin " Burns was the more cleaner player and just slighter less of RAS number. I still want to see Burns grow more, like rush stopping and not coming off the field etc. Needs to remain a panther and we need to start that process right now.

Still have no clue why the Raiders drafted Ferrell over him, I remember I mocked Burns to the Raiders at #4.

Everybody on the huddle was on the ferrell train. People love to look at stats and none of the factors that helped make those stats possible. This is where the combine comes into play. Who cares if you have 14 sacks with 3 other first rounders on the line with you. 

Then you get to the combine and look like a marginal athlete that put your how did you get those stats into question. Scout traits, ability, then stats.

Burns hasn't done anything yet and has vastly underperformed. 

I don't know why you guys are so in love with him.

He's way down the list as far as Panther's all time pass rushers much less the NFLs.

If he doesn't have a minimum of 12 sacks this year we should seriously evaluate what we want to do with him.

He's still a liability against the run.

You expect him to be on the “all time” list while on his rookie contract? Man you must be hard to impress…

All time doesn't mean career totals.

If that were the case Bo Jackson wouldn't be one of the best backs to ever play. 

Don't confuse average mediocre play combined with a long career for a high number with greatness. 

He is not productive period.

Panthers pass rushers I'd play in front of Burns in order

Lamar Lathon 

Kevin Greene 

Julius Peppers 

Greg Hardy

Mike Rucker

Maybe Charles Johnson 

Then probably Burns.

The only guy on that list he's in the same league as is probably CJ

Maybe Rucker. But he's nowhere close to the other guys yet as far as producing or instilling fear in the other QB.

False.  DPOW 16.5 sacks, 4 FF.  CJ was a great player, and was great at his peak, but his early numbers were not that good.

It's true. The guy has been no better than Charles Johnson so far and way worse against the run when compared to CJ.

Patently false. Burns had 9 sacks last season his 2nd year.   CJ didn't eclipse that until his 4th year.    Burns had 3 FF last year.  CJ didn't eclipse than until his 6th year.

He's only played 2 years, he's on pace.

Now you're just trolling.

I don't consider anyone a good  pass rusher unless they have 11 sacks in a season.

I consider 14 plus a season to be elite.

And when I say same level as CJ I'm including CJs ability to be a 3 down player. 

CJ was vastly superior vs the run.

 

Look I know you're a homer but the reality is Burns hasn't been much bett than Shacq and DJ.

He definitely doesn't deserve the adoration yet this board has been showing him. He might as well be Mike Fox.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By fanpanther · Posted

      I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
