The defense is decimated

It really is wild how many players we’re missing on that side of the ball.

One of the worst parts about it is our defensive line has been healthy all season, yet we are 31st against the run. Our run defense is just awful.

Gee whiz, didn't know that. That's pretty bad.

Yet people still suggesting we trade Burns.

 

This team is in a bad position. After we trade Burns we have a roster full of no names. Tough times to be a Panthers fan.

 

 

I feel like this is part of the reason you trade Burns. We are next to last stopping the run and he’s a huge part of that. If he’s not going to be a game wrecker in the pass rush ( and he isn’t on that level yet ) then it doesn’t make up for how poor he is against the run.

Trade Burns? Why? You have a GM who can’t evaluate the value of draft picks acquired. The same GM can’t evaluate talent talent. Wait until the next GM and let him make the decision. It will not be long.

While I didn't expect us to be elite defensively against the run, I didn't expect this. It also screwed me over in fantasy... used my week one waiver claim on Tyler Allgeier. Little did I know at the time, the Panthers just sucked immensely and made him look like a star.

You can trade Burns for picks, or WR help and a pick, fire Scott in the offseason and let the new GM make the pick.

    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...  
    • Canes are so fascinating. Despite inconsistent defense and poor goalie play they keep winning. 
    • I like Morgan's approach but I'll wait for a few winning seasons before giving too much praise.
