How Many Sacks Will The Panthers Have In 2010?

The key to how effective the Panthers defense will be in 2010 is their pass rush, so what's your best guess?

Here is my list of the Panthers players I expect to have sacks this season, with what I think their probable range of sacks might be, followed by my best guess at their individual sack total.

DE-Everette Brown: 3-8 (6)

DE-Charles Johnson: 2-5 (3)

DE-Tyler Brayton: 2-5 (3)

DE-Greg Hardy: 1-5 (2)

DE-Hilee Taylor (if he makes the team) 0-2 (1)

DT-Tank Tyler: 0-2 (1)

DT-Louis Leonard: 0-2 (1)

DT-Corvey Irvin: 0-3 (1)

DT-Ed Johnson: 0-2 (1)

DT-Backup (Hayden, Landri, or Neblett) 0-3 (0)

LB-Thomas Davis 1-4 (2)

LB-Jon Beason 0-2 (0)

LB-James Anderson 0-2 (0)

LB-Dan Connor 0-1 (0)

LB-Jamar Williams 0-1 (0)

LB-Eric Norwood 0-3 (1)

DB's 1-5 (2)

TOTAL: 24

I hope I'm way off on this prediction (I graded very tight trying to be totally impartial), because they will need at least around 30 sacks for the defense to be very effective. If they slip to around 20 sacks (or lower) it could collapse, pulling the DB's and LB's down along with the D-Line.

What's your best guess?

i like your estimations, i don't see anywhere i disagree with you. if i had to change something i'd give the linebackers a few more. last year when we had early pass rush issues meeks starting bring davis and beason on blitzes (rather effectively i might add.) i could see beason and davis each notching a couple if that's the case, and whoever starts at ROLB as well.

I don't see the interior Dline getting many sacks, maybe 3 in total. But I hope Brayton, Johnson, Brown and Hardy (even maybe Norwood if they throw him in the DE rotation)..all wreak havoc. I think Beason and Davis will get a couple of sacks. Maybe a couple sacks from Richard Marshall...

So I'm gonna say 28 sacks total on defense.

We are playing some weak QB's and OLines. I think we will surpass many expectations.

The Rams, Bears and Seahawks have QB's and olines we can eat up.

The Steelers and Cardinals are also teams we could play well against. If the Browns play Jake we have a chance to do well also. We all know he is a statue back there.

Point is you are estimating less than all but 2 of the 32 teams accumulated last year.

Our revamped Dline is not comparable to the 09 Chiefs and Jaguars. In other words way too low.

DE-Everette Brown: 6-12 (9)

DE-Charles Johnson: 3-6 (5)

DE-Tyler Brayton: 2-5 (3)

DE-Greg Hardy: 1-5 (2)

DE-Hilee Taylor (if he makes the team) 0-2 (1)

DT-Tank Tyler: 0-3 (1)

DT-Louis Leonard: 0-3 (1)

DT-Corvey Irvin: 0-3 (1)

DT-Ed Johnson: 0-2 (1)

DT-Backup (Hayden, Landri, or Neblett) 0-3 (0)

LB-Thomas Davis 1-4 (2)

LB-Jon Beason 0-2 (1)

LB-James Anderson 0-2 (0)

LB-Dan Connor 0-1 (0)

LB-Jamar Williams 0-1 (0)

LB-Eric Norwood 0-3 (1)

DB's 1-5 (2)

TOTAL: 30-35 sacks

Where we will improve will be INT's. With a healthy Thomas Davis and getting Godfrey and Martin roving the backfield i see 22-30 ints. I say top 3 in INT's next year. Last year our offense was NOT keeping up there end of the bargain for much of the season. With a more fluid and efficient offense the defense will play better. I am going on record as saying we will be a top 10 defense once again and improve on ALL of our stats from last year except rushing defense.

Tyler Brayton- 5.0

Charles Johnson- 4.0

Jon Beason 3.0

Everette Brown- 2.5

Thomas Davis- 1.5

Nick Hayden- 1.0

Derek Landri- 1.0

Louis Leonard- 1.0

James Anderson- 1.0

Total- 20

My list above was from last year under their first year with Ron Meeks as the Defensive Coordinator.

I expect there to be a significant increase this year and would not be suprised at all if we reached 30.

Of course you can rule the Corner's and Safety's out because they don't blitz much, but we have some other guys that did not have a sack or are rookies this year that should contribute such as.... Greg Hardy, Tank Tyler, Dan Connor, Eric Norwood and Jamar Williams.

Then you have guys like Ed Johnson, Eric Moore, Hilee Taylor, Corvey Irvin, Jordan Senn, and Quinton Culberson that could possibly add a sack to the total.

It's hard to say, but honestly I think it starts with Beason's leadership followed by Tyler Brayton's, Everette Brown's and Thomas Davis's drive. If these four guys can take control of the Linebacker corp and the Defensive End corp then I expect great things from this defense this year.

I don't see Andre Neblett, Sean Ware, or Brett Warren even coming close to making the team so I left them off.

How is Nick Hayden going to get sacks from home?:D

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
