Panthers DE Brian Burns: 'When I get Tom Brady, I'm going crazy'

The third-year pass rusher was featured on Tuesday’s episode of the Behind The Mask Podcast on the Bleav Podcast Network, where hosts Takeo Spikes and Tutan Reyes brought up the prospect of finally sacking the seven-time Super Bowl champion quarterback. Burns told the former NFLers he’s ready.

Burns notched a career-high 9.0 sacks in 2020. None of those, however, claimed Brady as its victim in either of the two games against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

“There’s been so many times I hit him last year, and the ball was gone,” he continued. “It’s just heartbreaking. And there’s one time I did sack him, I got him down, but he fell on the line and it don’t count as a sack.”

I'm so excited for this defense. Brian Burns, Haasan Reddick, and Derrick Brown hunting for the QB; Shaq Thompson and Jermaine Carter Jr patrolling underneath; and this new secondary with Horn, DJax, Abouye, and Chinn locking folks down.

If we can get solid production out of the UT and SS, this squad can be disgustingly good. I'm even more excited for year 3 once they've depth at LB + S.

I know man.  Add to that Fox who was ranked 6th with eight tackles for loss, and Davion Nixon, there's some talent in the rotation which really hurt us last year.  I watched another highlight video and many times they ran straight to our 2nd tier guy.  They're targeting to our rotation.  By building depth, we plug that hole some.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

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

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
