Could Anderson outshine Beason?

Yes, it may sound like a dumb topic but I was watching some games from 2010 and Anderson absolutely dominated, also beat Beason statistically and I also know it was a bit hard for Beason who had to change sides due to Davis being injured.

Anderson stats 130 tackles, 4 sacks, 1 int, and 2 force fumbles pretty good for his first full year as a starter

Beason stats 121 tackles, 1 sack, 1 int, 2 force fumbles

Is it possible? :leaving:

With Beason in the middle, his natural position? Highly unlikely. Also, Anderson faded near the end of last year once Beason moved back inside... coincidence?

That said, I like Anderson as a player and think he can be a good to very good player for years to come.

Doubt it. Beason's on a mission this season, and gonna show why he should've been ranked higher than he was on that player's list. I also believe Anderson is a tad bit overhyped on this forum. He's still a good LB, but he won't outshine Beason.

There is a huge difference between out producing and actually out performing him Anderson never gave up this season and played very well, but this was a contract year.

Anderson's becoming overated if people keep using his stats. I'm never trusting LB stats with an interior as terrible as ours was.

Anderson is dependable, not quite a dynamic playmaker, but he won't drop easy INTS. If he was a little more aware and instinctive he could be really, really good.

I definitely want him back but I sure hope all of his drive wasn't fueled by the contract year.

Anderson Beason and a healthy Davis/Connor is going to be ridiculous.

I don't think he was really given a chance by Fox, he was invisible his two years here.

Anderson has been around a lot longer than 2 years unless you're referencing some other player.

Well he has never gotten a FULL chance to start the whole season. Another great example by Fox coaching, even though he did a good job his first year with 18 tackles and 2 sacks.

If there is one position Fox consistently got right during his time in Carolina, it was LB (Morgan over Witherspoon notwithstanding). Perhaps Anderson could have outperformed Diggs, but Diggs was not bad, just not flashy, and neither is Anderson really.

I don't think Anderson can outshine beason. He will still perform and compliment him. I expect his production to drop if davis can stay healthy, but he'll take care of his side no doubt. We might have one of the best linebacker groups out there.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
