Bootleg Football[ft. Brett Kollman]: The Panthers are actually a sneaky good team?

They know a lot about the panthers but also Evero and Reich. Surprised to learn that Reich loves running it up the middle and we were top 10 for running it up the middle so I would be surprised to see our run game take a step back which was my main concern moving off of Steve Wilks.

Johnathan Taylor had 1800 yards and 18 TDs on 332 attempts in Reich's offense just 2 seasons ago....

I dont think Wilks has ever produced a running game close to that level.

Which is crazy that the season totals for Miles Sanders in Vegas are all extremely low.

Every talking head has the same dumb opinion on our division. They’ve never seen a panthers team with youth, pedigree, and versatility amongst the all coaching ranks. Mild amount of jock riding over master mid Derek Carr. 28-30th best qb in the nfl Ridder is also a factor as well… I am , have been, and will be high on THIS team and it’s gonna be sweeter than we could’ve imagined.

It is interesting to read and see different takes on the Panthers this year. Some have us as contenders while others say pretenders and over rated.  I am on the contender side. We went 6-6 under Wilks and this staff is an upgrade. With a real quarterback and  legitimate offensive scheme I just don't see us less than .500 barring major injuries. With some luck we could register our first winning season  since 2017. I don't think that is unrealistic.

I feel like basically the division is wide open for the taking so we can make the playoffs but it's not the kinda set up where you want to take any of our players in fantasy early. Jets joint practice and preseason week 2 will probably be the biggest telling points of how we'll actually look

With the shift in the market, Sanders deal is the largest given to a free agent RB this off-season.  We needed help but the contract may ultimately cause some regret.  Still hopeful personally

    • I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.  
    • Will be interesting to see how they come out tonight. The Boston game seemed to open the flood gates of media attention. And it’s not just that they’re playing well, in some instances they are getting compared with all time greats. This is still a young team, and it would be easy for an immature team to lose some focus, buy into their own hype, and think they can coast bit. The Heat are a middle of the road team without their leading scorer. There is no big dragon to slay, no big statement to make. I think we’ll learn a lot tonight: are they young but mature, or do they still have a ways to go mentally?
    • Panthers North for the win. Good luck to him. Great guy, hated to see him leave here, but he's about to work with the best QB he's ever worked with (at least on a regular basis).
