Do we miss Pep?

I would say no! The run defense is better, as well as the pass rush. All against very good O lines. How refreshing to see guys giving 100% on every play. Now if our DB's could catch or in that case our receivers, we could have won both games. I really like the energy of the Defense and they are playing as a group, not as individuals. :D

Having a player like Julius Peppers is ALWAYS an asset. It forces opposing teams to game plan around him. Even then, the best laid game plan, peppers can tear apart. Just ask Gruden.

That being said, like I've been saying ever since we purged the roster, that we've been needing to go young across the d-line for a few years now.

I like the young energy, and their desire to prove themselves.

Our defense is the youngest it's been in years, and that's a good thing. Younger, faster, more energy. All good things.

      Worst Panthers Preseason Yet

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      Also, the fact we are comparing this one to the 10 preseason tells me we are in for another horrible year.

      Kicker

      Well, they're both in the same league (if you will). During preseason, Fitz went 3/3 & Sauls went 5/6, but of course Sauls was 4/4 last night (including one 50+). Both were Lou Groza Award finalists. I believe Fitz made two 55+ yarders last season, while Sauls led the nation with three. Fitz was 13/13 (💯) while Sauls was 21/24 (87.5). Fitz was a 3rd-Team AP All-American, while Sauls was a PFF All-American.  Career-wise, Fitz was 58/74 (78.4), while Sauls was 52/64 (81.3). I wish that I could see the attempts and knew the depth of yardage. I wish that we could compare practice kicks during their training camps, but we can't. Maybe someone with a PFF/CFF account can give that Basically it's just a matter of belief I guess. Seeing dude knock down four FGs and go perfect during a pressure-filled game for him is damned impressive if you ask me. I don't believe that Fitzgerald could do that.  That being said, I'd have to know more. I will say that it may be worth mentioning that we seem to like PFF this year and Sauls being a PFF All-American may be notable. Now that being said, the Panthers may not be even considering Sauls.

      Ive said it 1000x times on here.  Our 2025 season will be dictated by the first 4 games.  poo the bed there and lose all confidence and momentum, we win 5 games maybe.  Go 2-2, 3-1 we got a look at 7/8 wins
