Is this the best Panthers pass rush in franchise history?

Time will tell if it's better than 2013 but have more depth across the D-Line. Hardy had 15, Johnson had 11 no other player had more than 4

T.D - 4 , Mike Mitchell - 4, Captain- 3, Dwan Edward's ‐ 3, Star - 3, Luke -2,  Short 1.5. So two defensive lineman and a bunch of corners and linebackers

We're can get more pressure with the D-line without having to blitz the secondary with Haynes, Brown, Fox, Jones, YGM and I fully expect at least two of them to have more than 4 sacks likely Fox and Brown.

the thing I have been thinking recently is - How TF are we going to be able to resign Reddick (only a 1yr deal) and still retain Burns when he is off his rookie deal?

I think we need to keep them both and keep this line together for the next few years - but not sure it is doable..

It is doable, the saints do it every year.

I think it could be. Even up against the days of Pepp and Rucker.

They are more consistent in applying pressure than even Pep and Rucker were.  Pep would have plays and games that just reminds you how unreal he is, but the pass rush with this defense now is more consistent and relentless.  

I would be interested to see stats comparison from Kevin Greene and Lamar Lathon led pass rush in 1996.  They were really good.

Del Rio was special, too bad we couldn't hold onto him

Well it's hard to call someone special when they couldn't repeat the same thing twice. Good most definitely, special I'm not sure of. I would say he was probably as good as McDermott and that's not a knock.

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?

      I can't see a world where the money goes down, but maybe your lottery odds are now your contract numbers you can offer.  Thunder? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 20 million.  Hornets? You can offer Flagg 4 years, 80 million.  Some form of a system where the money is still there, but so is the freedom of choice (on top of bad teams getting *some* competitive advantage to signing them).
