Foxsports.com says Carolina fans should be thankful for Charles Godfrey

how is it not john kasay? he's been the most solid, consistent member of this team since its inception.

I watched that movie last night. It's one of those movies that you have to watch again in order to pick up on what's happening. Cool concept though. Oh....... and Go Panthers!

Like Fix said, it's just some beat writer who wrote a crappy quick article by quickly looking at the individual stats for each team. Godfrey isn't that good, if anything we should be thankful for Goodson. It's the fullback rule: if you're a fullback and you get 3-4 TDs in a season, you're going to the probowl no matter how bad your blocking is.

I heavily disagree on both Godfrey being terrible and being who the Panthers should be most thankful for.

CatMan expressed my same sentiments. Godfrey, in my opinion at least, is a high risk, high reward player. He gets fired up and as far as I'm concerned, this Carolina team has played "is ho-hum is" for far too long. His stats definitely make him look better than what he is, but to say that he's trash with numbers like those is just as unreasonable.

I think that James Anderson should've been their choice. Preseason I was worried about Sam LB. He quickly put that baby to rest.

God if national writers just did the smallest bit of research they could write decent articles.

Seriously If I was a writer I would just go to forums honestly. Get the raw info and cut through the bullshit and you would have way better knowledge than a freaking stats sheet!!!!

I'd love to know what these guys's careers are like so maybe I could find excuses for their crappy articles.

Godfrey's biggest problem is that a handful of times each game, he'll take a bad angle when trying to stop a RB from making a big gain, or when getting the handoff of a receiver from the CB. In fact, most of the complaints about him being out of position are more a result of his angles than actually not being in the right spot. Too often, he'll have good position, but when a player is released to him, he takes the wrong angle and loses containment.

He's not as bad as some try to make it seem, but he's probably never going to be anything more than a serviceable Safety that is easily replaceable if the right guy comes along.

All of Godfrey's interceptions this year have been gifts. I won't be impressed with him until he learns to play good zone defense which he obviously struggles with.
