Nick Scott weighing contract offer to return to Carolina

Looking at the DL exclusively, they're adding DB, Wharton, and Brown III to it which completely replaces last season's starters. That leaves Robinson, Crumedy, Tuttle, Ray, and any other additions made competing for the three back-up spots. They essentially added a 100 tackle DT, the sack leader of one of last season's Super Bowl teams, and a true NT rather than an undersized one.

I'm with you on the safeties. If Scott does return, I expect him to take Sam's role as back up SS/ST. Moehrig is the clear starter and a major upgrade... as much as I want a top flight FS, I have to appreciate the team prioritizing a run-stopping safety to fix record-setting incompetence over a centerfielder. Then when I consider that the Panthers get to play against Bijan Robinson, Alvin Kamara, and Bucky Irving twice a season... I can dig it. The situation at FS tho...

I'm concerned that we might see more soft zone coverage if they don't find a starting FS. I'm finding it hard to believe that they're going in depending on Demani Richardson, but maybe his play last season makes them comfortable with adding another young body to compete against this season? I gotta dive into the tape and see for myself.

Going to be veeery interesting

It would be fun to pair Moehrig with a ballhawking type like Watts.  Horn is a shutdown type at CB but we really do need a ballhawk in the secondary to make us a bit peskier back there.  Then land a CB like Strong VT to see develop as well for the outside or a better boost at NB like Parrish KSU over Smith-Wade.

Ok so our DL was one of the worst in NFL history, and we sign some new players (2) but we also bring back Tuttle and Ray--why????

We have bad safeties and let them walk, then bring back a S from that unit.  He only played 324 plays in 2024 and looks to play less this season.  He had a 48.1 PFF grade vs the run.  What are we doing?  Camp bodies?

Brown was hurt. That’s sort of the crux of the collapse of the line.

Nothing like a guy that allows a 106.2 career passer rating to shore up a leaky D.

He's not even a good tackler. Bad in coverage. Bad against the run. I mean... come on man. Give me something to work with. I need something to scheme you for. I can't just hide you in the secondary all game.

I get that, but others have to step up.  Can I do the job or do I have to have someone else beside me getting all the offensive attention to do my job?  They failed miserably.  I agree that, from our perspective, Brown will make a huge difference moving forward, but these guys had their opportunity and they sucked.

You are giving me hope that I too may play safety for the Carolina Panthers.  I have a bad shoulder from when I played in college in the 80s.  I am white and ran a 4.75 40, and I am about 30 pounds overweight and I need readers in restaurants.  But as you describe him, I meet those requirements.   Sending my resume to Dan....Tim And Eric Dancing GIF

    • Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce. 
    • Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips. 
    • I mean there is relevance to that. But I think much of it has to do with the fact that he is clearly likeable. But does that translate to a coach taking his position to the next level like those that have had staying power for many years like Spoelstra? And not for nothing but does how much someone is liked even matter? Across leagues with the Panthers Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney were universally well liked by players. Dave Canales is very well liked. I say you are what your record says. And the record says you got your ass handed to you by a fellow expansion team in the Magic in a game that was over at halftime and that same team went toe to toe with our nemesis who has been handing us L's for over a year now. And if Bam doesn't get his leg swept by LaMelo do we even get past the Heat? Again. It just all boils down to personal standards. I think newer and younger fans will love this. I just want to actually win a real playoff game fam 🤷‍♂️
