Question for Panthers Fans...

i'm also all for nick goings getting some recognition, he really was an all around great teammate and did everything he could to help the team, and he could do a lot.

Nick Goings was a solid all-around player... and constantly gave teams fits.. What do you think about the late Fred Lane?

How about Lamar Lathon? He was one of that three-headed beast (along with Kevin Greene and Sam Mills) that used to murder guys like Deion Sanders and Michael Irvin.

That was a terrorizing defense! 2/3 should be in the HOF (Greene & Mills).. imho

A lot of great names/solid players on this list! Glad to see my boy Rocket get some love! Yep, Wesley Walls is a classic example of the type of player that a lot of people don't know about...or forgot about for that matter!

Definitely Nick Goings, Brad Hoover and Mike Minter, along with a certain special teams player whose name eludes me at the moment - last I saw of him he was released by the Raiders in 2008. He was famous for getting to the return man before the ball did. Can anyone help me out?

And some older guys that we seem to have forgotten - Mark Carrier, Eric Davis, Wesley Walls, Anthony Johnson, Dan Morgan, Ricky Proehl -these guys all had significant roles in the Panthers' best seasons.

edit: How could I forget Michael Bates

another edit: Rocket Ismael does not belong here. He had a good season on a very bad team.

Last edit: If anyone deserves recognition for a single good season: Patrick Jeffers.

Lane was exciting to watch. However, I think his personal demons negatively affected the team well before his murder.

There are a lot of "obscure" players that fans of this team love, but I've got to exclude a few players I feel came here too late in their career to really be considered true Panthers.

That being said: Kevin Greene, Mike Minter, Mike Rucker, Mark Fields, Brad Hoover, Muhsin Muhammad.

    • Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse. 
    • Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.  
    • I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
