And I'll die on the hill that Burns is doing what he is doing without an offense and if you all saw him on a team with an actual offense keeping him rested and able to pin his ears back for 3rd and 4th quarters of games the same clowns proclaiming to trade him would be dead silent as he takes over the league on a good team while we have 3 Everette Brown's on the roster with 8 combined sacks.

He got plenty of rest today from the offense

I'll say it again, Burns is a good not a great player at this point in his career. He reminds me a lot of Mario Addison except we rely on Burns to play a lot more. Paying him like he's a top 5 4-3 DE will be a huge mistake. Not trading him for 2 1st rounders was also a huge mistake if that was a real offer because he is NOT someone you build your defense around

Peppers also had games without sacks and zero impact. Burns isn’t Peppers, but the over reacting and wanting to hate the dude is interesting to watch. 

Has nothing to do with hating him but moreso the fact that we are going to have to pay him top 5 DE money when he is not a top 5 DE. Teams game planned against Peppers to try and eliminate him from the game. They actually had to worry about him beside just rushing the passer. Teams love game planning for Brian Burns. It's a free 5 yards every time you run in his direction

No one hates him people are just upset we turned down a kings ransom for a player that isn’t a complete player ready to cash in as one

Good thing those 2 things are really easy to get. Playoff caliber QBs are so easy to get that every NFL team has one. 

We're more than those 2 things away from seriously competing. We also need a WR1, help in our LB core, secondary, OC, DC, TE not to mention the players we will inevitably lose to FA. 

All of those things you listed are things needed to have a “perfect team” on paper. You do not need every single piece to be compete….he’ll we are competing right now even though we have had a disaster season by all respects. We control our own destiny December and that is with a revolving door at QB, a temp head coach, half a coaching staff, trading away our best player, etc. I realize QB’s don’t grow on trees, but my point is that we only need mid range QB production in order to be a caliber playoff team. Absolutely no way we need anywhere close to 5 years to become a playoff caliber team.

Did he really get credit for a half sack? That was all Luvu getting Geno out of the pocket and Shaq started the tackle. Burns was never even in the pocket and came over when Shaq was mid tackle.

If he did get the stat, his line looks better than he was.

He was in great position and came around to get in front of Geno and prob would have had the sack on his own if they weren’t chasing from behind. I don’t know why we go out of the way to hate on Burns when he is the best player on our defense other than Brown. He is just 24 years old and already a captain/leader of the team, and is putting up pro bowl stats.

I guess hes not a top 5 defensive end. But a top 5 edge... absolutely.

  These rankings seem to disagree.

10. BRIAN BURNS, CAROLINA PANTHERS

Burns has been an ironman for the Panthers this year, leading all edge defenders in snaps (718). Despite that heavy workload, he's been incredibly productive. Burns ranks fourth in the NFL in pressures (53) while also placing second in hurries (34). He’s already recorded double-digit sacks for the first time in his career (10) and is still only 24 years. His lack of ability to stop the run (49.5 PFF run-defense grade) is the only thing keeping him from being higher on this list.

There’s no hate

My guy. You've been raging for weeks with anti Burns posts ever since Fitts declined the Rams trade. You are surely entitled to your opinion that it was a bad decision but to say there's no hate is laughable at best. We see it.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
