Grew up in Frederick, MD.  Lived in Charlotte most of my life.

Currently working in Frederick MD.

Frederick suuuuuuuuucks.

Charlotte times 100,000 - not comparable.

Maryland sucks as a whole compared to VA and NC and even SC.

Annapolis is the only city I like in MD.

But it’s far better than WV and PA.

NC for the win.

I like Pittsburgh. It's a wonderful city. Arts, culture, outdoor activities, food, relatively low crime rate for a city its size---a lot lower than Charlotte's. The cost of living is great compared to Charlotte and the Triangle as well. It just offers a lot more. The only negative is the winter weather. Pennsylvania has several cities on the best place for retirees to live.

Everyone in the Carolinas is from Pittsburgh, Columbus OH, and Upstate NY.

Pittsburgh is a cool city, but there are many reasons everyone is exiting to the Carolinas.

Maybe it will reverse one day.

Is this supposed to make me feel better about our WRs?

 

Cocker has 8 receptions for 108 yards on the season.

He has a limited body of work, but 8 receptions in three games in the rotation on 8 targets--that is promising.  That is about an average of 36+ yards per game---over 17 games, that would be over 600 yards--with bad QB play, I'll take it.  But he has not established himself by any means, but he has done all he can do.

Given where we are....

Johnson and Theilen make sense ONLY if Carolina was trying to develop Bryce Young

If Andy Dalton is your QB, AT and DJ make little sense.  You need XL, Coker, Saunders, Mingo, Brooks getting the reps. 

I absolutely agree with the last sentence of your post. I disagree (just a little) with sentence 2.

I'd hate to lose AT and DJ in the middle of the season. These guys are established VETS who understand coverages and know how to get open. If we lose both of them before the deadline we would have no veteran presence to help the QBs during the game or help the younger guys develop their games. If AT and DJ are both traded we would probably have the youngest receiving core in the NFL...paired with the worst QB play if somehow Young ends up getting most of the snaps going forward.

Unless David Moore becomes a starter, 3 of our starters (Coker, Mingo, and Legette) would have less than 2 years of experience. The Panthers TE corps is among the worst in the league. Scoring points would become harder which is the last thing the team can afford with a defense as poor as ours. If Dalton returns soon I'd like to give him at least one VET to depend on for the next 10 games.

FYI: DJ leads the tea with reception yardage: 357. No other player on the team has reached the 200 yard mark for the season thru 7 games.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
