I for one am happy

to welcome Jimmy Clausen, Brandon Lafell, Armanti Edwards, and David Gettis to the Funky Bunch, I have no doubt in my mind that we have the talent to go far this season. Actually all i thought we really needed was a quarterback who avoids the multiple interception games and can complete the 15-20 passes he needs to throw to win the game. I struggled at first with the idea that someone could challenge Matt Moore's status as top dog, but if Jimmy Clausen can somehow beat him out i have no doubt in my mind he will be rookie of the year. We have something special on offense that is ready to explode, now all you pessimists and those who don't quite put on for Carolina probably see some kind of flaw that you have convinced yourself is so great we can not overcome it, this is nothing but false though. We left the season realizing we needed receivers, competition at quarterback, and defensive depth. We got that and more. It's Super Bowl or bust and if you are going to let Florio or some bum on espn who doesn't look at the Panthers daily then i would prefer not to hear from you. 13-3 I've already got my ticket to Dallas, hope you do to.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
