I’m old enough to remember when people here said Snow would suck as an NFL DC and I was stupid for liking the hire. 

Snow (so far) is biggest surprise. RR was great DC. I thought when 70% of the defensive stats& leadership was retired/cut/signed else where...... panthers break all the worst records in team history( on that side). Defense out-played the much more talented offensive this past year. Sure the 3rd down were a problem for close to one month, but I thought it would have been the whole time. Old guy beat brady in push-ups as well, right now he feels like the brains of this unit.

Never discount a man that has seen as many winters as he has.

Love to see all the nut hugging on Snow, when 99% of the huddle said he was a garbage pick because he came from college and coached LBs on a team that went 0-16 in the pros. Classic. 

Have your fun now while you can. We are expected to lose, y'all on the other hand will look quite foolish if you lose.  

Sleep on that.

Been saying it since last year. He has done the most with the least and has been a huge part in Rhule's success.

I doubt there's anything he has not seen attempted in football. 

I define a good coach as one who can line his 11 scrubs up against your 11 5 star recruits and give you all you can handle.  If a coach has to have a top 10 roster to compete then he's not a very good coach.  Yes it certainly helps, especially in the big leagues, but you have to have the ability to play the hand you're dealt and still compete.  

That old fart is a good coach and is the very reason we've been competitive despite being out classed in talent. Rhule knows what's up.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
