Simple question. For me it's an easy yes, we are in much better shape. Not necessarily a top 10, but us improving even to 20 or so would be a huge leap and i think we've got a front that could probably get us trending that way. 

looks like what the power trio of Morgan/Tilis/Canales did with the OL last year they are doing to the DL so i'm excited. 

it's still early in FA, but i really like what ive seen.

No where to go but up 

If a couple of the moves pan out, we're a Top 20 defense, which is probably all we can ask for right now.  A top 20 defense wins us a couple more games last year. IF we continue to get new Bryce, plus the additions, I think we've got a shot at competing for the division.

Getting more big guys was so important. Anyone we draft on defense will be so much more effective. They can double up on edge or maybe get a LB now. An undersized Jalon Walker doesn’t look as bad if we know he’ll have some 1:1 opportunities(still don’t want him).

DL: Brown/Brown III/A’Shawn (Wharton, Tuttle, Crumedy)

OLB rotation: Clowney/Wonnum/Jones II/Barno/DJJ

ILB: Jewell/Trevin/Incoom

CB: Horn/Jackson/Smith-Wade

S: Moehrig/TBD/Richardson

It’s no doubt improved but safety still has an hole (draft methinks), edge rusher and corner are still very upgradable (draft as well)

On paper we've made improvements no doubt. Especially along the DL which is what I wanted. But we have paid a lot of money to do so. I'm in prove it mode with Evero currently. We need progress big time. No excuses.

      Meow Mix podcast cancels plans to return after players tell them not to

      By Mage · Posted

      JMO, I think it is lame as hell to publicly give up on the team and then crawl back when they win a few games. Like, how can you run a PANTHERS PODCAST and then give up on it during the season?    Yes, you can argue the Panthers prior to Week 3 hadn't done anything to deserve fanfare, but nobody made them run a Panthers Podcast.  They chose to.  So stick with it.  Instead they gave up and did so publicly.  Which is well within their right - but you can't then turn around and bring it back the same season.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      The crazy thing about football is it’s a team sport. But one position can make or break the game. And one of the best ways in doing that is by not giving the ball away and being able to run at 4-5 yard clips. Throw in a couple passes and next thing you know you’re in the red zone. Playing this way limits possessions to other(more dynamic) QBs too. And if your defense plays well that could equate to between 4 and six series. If you’re running that efficient, you can say, split the offensive production with the run or the pass. So by attempt byce accounted for his half of the yardage and Rico did too. Rico also managed to punch it in at the goal line. And you gotta give it to our oline and they’re running blocking and that’s without TMO! so the truth is, Canales and management figured out how to use Bryce’s strengths to compliment this run game to cover up his weaknesses in a way that is efficient. And our defense showed improvement against pretty formidable opponent the week after andy dalton gave it to buffalo. They are putting winning football on the field more often, and we are slowly becoming better each week. I hope they can keep it up.

      If only the Eagles collapse. I dont think it will happen though. I hate them as much. Ill root for the Chiefs if they play the Eagles this time around in the Superbowl. I hate those guys.
