(By Darin Gantt, [email protected]) When Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator Ron Meeks was trying to generate pressure last year, he knew there was always a chance that one guy would provide.p/But in the absence of defensive end Julius Peppers this year, the second-year coordinator said he still thinks the Panthers can be a good pass-rush team.

"It is contagious," Brown said. "I was ready to come out and set the tone. That was one thing we talked about: Starting fast, coming out and playing fast and setting the tone for the game. That right there in itself is contagious - having the guys coming out, wanting to make plays, excited about every snap on defense."

I love Everette Brown's attitude. That man will be a leader for this team in a year or so.

and yet even with Peppers last year, the pass rush wasn't consistent. At least in the preseason thus far...we look better than last year. Im not saying, im just sayin'....
