OK for all the critics... I did two searches and didn't find this anywhere. Pretty interesting article and honestly all of it makes sense.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/591235-how-to-fix-the-nfls-worst-team-the-carolina-panthers-in-6-easy-steps

1. Resign D'Will... The man has a YPC average of Barry Sanders and because of J. Stewart is still pretty fresh. Keep double Trouble Together

2. Vince Young... i know many scream HELL NO and he's a bum and on and on but 10-3 is alot better than 3-9. (TD / Int ratio) 98.6 passer rating. Wait until he his cut and sign him. We have first dibs on waiver claims. (if that is how they do it during the offseason)

3. Draft Nick Fairley... They make a good point. He will command attention and if he gets alot of attention. The Beast will be free to be the BEAST.

4.DJ Williams. Not the #1 TE but might be available at # 65.

5. Cut Lloyd... I like Rhys but if he cannot kick field goals we need a kicker who can do both. Seems there are a few available this year.

6. NOT FOOTBALL RELATED BUT ROCK BOA... I love it. Fire up the speakers and play Crazy Train.... (ok so I am old and like Classic Rock)

7. Make Smitty a Pro Bowler again. Get him the ball. No doubt about it. I think Chud's is gonna make this his #1 or #2 priority. TE being the other.

8. BLITZ... NO DOUBT Again.. We have the studs to really make this a #1 defense. Dont know how many remember J. Del Rio's Defense but that was an exciting defense with 1/2 the talent and still ended up #3 or 4 overall. With this D.. No reason why we could not go straight to #1.

9. Beast in the Middle.... His natural position and others can play outside. Beast is naturally suited for MLB.

10. AE need a chance. I am of the same belief. This guy was the only 2x Walter Payton award winner. He didn't get there by being mediocre. Chud's will get him involved.

11. Add it all up and makes me Smile too. I am glad we have some fresh faces on this team. I can't wait for us to actually use it.

GO PANTHERS

Linking Bleacherreport won't win you any fans

x2

i actually skimmed this one, though. proposed getting the ball to smitty as much as possible. that isn't going to happen. say bye bye to the "feed the stud" mentality. chud and rivera wants that ball spread around. smitty (and his fanboys) is just going to have to get used to being pissed about him not getting the ball often.

It is giving credit to the author... I like the ideas but didn't write it.
not aobut you as the writer of the article, but you posting anything from bleacher report. has a deserved crappy reputation. actually worse than linking to anything from PFT/florio.

Smitty is still a playmaker and getting him the ball will open up the TE, Running lanes and so forth. IMO getting him the ball gives the offense more balance than not.

spreading the ball around is what is going to open everyone up, including smith. feeding him the ball isn't going to bring real balance.

he's getting older, but he'll have better chances at making big plays if he isnt targeted as much.

it's better for the whole team if they don't try forcing the ball to him.

12. Switch to all black (not racist) uniforms.......Black has been proven to be an intimidating color to visiting opponents. Also, it is slimming so that the opposing teams will think the O-Line lacks weight and will start their 3rd team defense.
hey it worked great for the jags when they used them and the falcons in the early 90's right? :lol:

      The Cavalry is Coming

      By CRA · Posted

      I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.

      Ikem Ekwonu is slated to GET PAID

      By Basbear · Posted

      I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By CRA · Posted

      I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
