Brown not worried about lack of sacks

Training camp’s a time when the shiny and new capture our attention.

Players who are steady, and quiet, and come without hype often fail to register.

But now more than ever, it’s clear how much the Carolina Panthers are going to need Everette Brown this season, and need him in a big way.

The second-year defensive end is almost easy to miss, except for the fact he’s perhaps their most promising pass-rush guy in a year they need all they can get. Despite that, he’s been overlooked through camp, since he opened as a backup (and since Tyler Brayton and Charles Johnson are better against the run), and seemed to be the only lineman who didn’t get a sack in the preseason opener at Baltimore.

Sorry Everette, Hardy has looked much better than you so far. You may be 3rd string.

I want to see Hardy play against some real offensive linemen......with Brayton banged up I'd like to see him and CJ with the first unit. Then we will get a feel for what he can do (well, at least those who haven't been to camp as I assume he has gone against some of our top guys there).

Brown and Hardy rushing from the edges on passing downs sounds like it should be a good combination.

I know a lot of people are down on Brown..no point trying to argue with them.

I'd also like to see Hardy with the starters during pre season. Want to see if can continue to play like he does against better players.

The general consensus going into the season was people were excited and looking forward to seeing Browns progress. After one unproductive preseason game in the rain, now people want him to play LB. I just dont get our "fanbase."

Nonetheless, he is basically our first round pick this year, so he has to produce. I just want to see him progress, which will not happen if the coaches decide to tamper by throwing him into a new position for shits and giggles.

The only folks suggesting he move to linebacker are posters who really don't know how different there are or what skills sets are required. Plus it is much easier to find a linebacker in a 4-3 system than it is to find a 4-3 DE.

but but but I heard that we are switching to the 3-4 and he will be a OLB cause of that. Don't ask me who told me that. I would have to kill u.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
