Ken Lucas

Lucas gets burnt just as easily as everyone else in the secondary. Unless it is a quick throw to Gamble (where he got his recent hype), Gamble gets abused just as easily. The DL and pass rush was a concern going in this year.......and it is showing in our secondary play. The scheme also doesn't help. A huge cushion given to WR w/ plenty of time to run and get open........how do you expect anybody to cover them.

Lucas has a neck injury that is hurting his abilty to tackle. As far as coverage goes, the problem is more a lack of pressure from our d-line, than Lucas. Lewis can't push into the middle of the pocket for poo, that's why QB's just step up to avoid pressure from Peppers. The problem is Lewis. God I wish Jenkins would have kept his big mouth shut.

lucas isn't playing well but we don't get very much pressure which really does not help our secondary at all

Lucas will not be replaced by marshall, i say this over and over again but nobody gets it, marshall plays the slot, he'll play that no matter what is going on

Lucas has not played up to his contract this year, but he will not be cut, i hope he gets a deal restructured if we keep him because we have alot of other guys who deserve the money more than he does

if we draft a CB then it will need to be another bigger guy who can help in run support and cover the larger recievers, marshall is too small to be an everydown player in this defense, he's good for his size but alot of bigger recievers can get the best of him

I don't know how this problem will be fixed other than lucas just playing better, if we get more pressure though this problem will be alot less obvious

    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
    • Ehhh im not mad either way I don't think hes garbage but he was and is overpaid.... but he was a skating turnover machine.
    • My interpretation of his comments was somewhat different. And I took issue with his contract the day he signed. But it's all history now and doesn't matter in the big picture.
