that's not really a good thing. high number of tackles usually means the defense can't get off the field because they suck or can't stay off the field because the offense sucks.

here's hoping he isn't among the top in the league this year.

Yeah i was looking at that a while ago and i think it was like only two of the top 20 players in total tackles were on playoff teams. I don't know how that carries over for previous years but it makes sense to me.

Actually Meek's defense funnels the runner to the will and really enables him to make plays. It was part of the reason that Davis was having a great season. The defense could be good and Beason would still get the lion's share of tackles. Usually a middle linebacker getting a ton of tackles in our defense suggest a problem with the run defense. It means players are coming clean through the middle. So if Beason playing the Will is at the top in tackles, it means that Louis and Tyler are doing a decent job plugging things up. It Connor has a 100 tackles this year then I will be more concerned.

Good point. Willis has had better statistics the Beason since the two joined the league but IMO Willis is on the field much longer than the BEAST is. So his numbers are going to be higher.

Go Panthers

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
