Sorry if this is a repost... didnt see it on the first two pages

http://blogs.charlotte.com/panthers/2009/11/lb-johnson-joins-davis-on-ir-panthers-sign-former-colt-senn.html

Just two games after taking over for injured Thomas Davis as a starting outside linebacker, Landon Johnson has joined Davis on the injured reserve list and is out for the season.

Johnson suffered a knee injury in last Thursday's loss to Miami and was placed on I.R. today.

The Panthers signed Jordan Senn, a linebacker and special teamer, to replace Johnson on the roster.......(click link to read on)

LB was definitely one of our strong suits. We almost had too many LBs. Now it's all of a sudden an issue. When I first read about the LB injuries, I thought what difference does it make at this point, We're done. We'd get a higher 2nd round pick if we lose out. But we won't we'll we 3 or 4 games and end up with a mid 2nd round pick that won't get us squat!

But to the LB issue, the whole point of drafting Connor was he was suppose to be a stud. To me, he looks too small. But hasn't he cracked the lineup thus far. If he was so great that we had to draft him, instead of a safety (which we desperately needed) why haven't we used him over Anderson or Johnson? Is he only going to play MLB? Thus far he's only been out there in a pinch or to spell.

My question is, is he going to eventually replace Diggs at weak side? He can’t play strong side (I wouldn’t think). Surely they wouldn’t put him at MLB and move Beason?

What if we switch to a 3-4 next year? Where do you think each LB will play in that scheme? Who would go and who would stay? Your DEs become outside LBs in that scheme, so where will Beason, Davis, and Connor play? Can Connor fit that scheme?

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
