As if this was anything new...

Asked if the team would throw more often this season, Davidson (Panther's OC) flatly said "no" to Steve Reed of Carolinagrowl.com. "The major push for is us when a defense is making us throw it, we have to be efficient when they are doing that to us," Davidson said.

Davidson says he's not worried about the passing game's struggles in the preseason, and that the starting job opposite Steve Smith remains open to competition. (Dwayne Jarrett and rookie Brandon LaFell remain the leading contenders.)

Only two teams ran the ball at a higher percentage than the Panthers last year. According to the Football Outsiders Almanac, only one team passed the ball less when ahead on the second half.

Not a bad thing, this is why our we will be much better on offense when the season starts, because the only thing that stopped our ground game last season was Jake intercept o!

This isn't Florio's horrid opinion. i could have posted the article from carolina growl, but its basically the same thing. no apologizes from me this time

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
