After watching the Video Fua and mcclain are going to be a huge focus in the Defense. Especially Fua because he will play the Nosetackle position. Its a good chance he could even start this season if he plays well.

The panthers have too much strength at the linebacker position to be playing 5 down lineman

No one is talking about 5 down linemen. The NT functions differently than the UT. Hell they even explain it in the video to some extent.

Kemo under Trgo was functionally a NT if I am not mistaken. Correct?

Yep. I think a lot of Cover 2's use an NT. He just doesn't play over center. I think it's become more popular recently.

Yeah I believe Meeks used some of the NT too. I've been fairly critical of Kemo as it seemed like we paid him an awful lot of money to really not do anything most of the other NTs couldn't do. He should have been more disruptive for that money.

They cited this game he had against LeCharles Bentley when we signed him, I was able to find a fan who made some highlights of it and he's rarely looked like that during his stay here.

      I do believe that Evero gets canned before the end of the season and Capers takes over the D. I think the stage is set for Evero to fall on the sword for a 4-7 win season.  Not saying it would be a set up but I do think if that transpires, the seat under DC might start getting pretty warm, rightly or wrongly. That's my read on Tepper. I am not at all excited nor am I dreading anything. I just have extremely low expectations so I am just waiting to see what this revision of the roster looks like.  I FEEL like we are better on paper than last season's team but I wouldn't be remotely shocked if we were as bad or worse. Again, I do think this is the 2nd worst roster in franchise history overall. What will really make me happy is for some of the big questions to finally be answered(Bryce, Ikey, Horn, etc). I would like to see a real expansion of our core player pool(basically just D. Brown currently). I want to see a couple of hits in free agency and a couple in the draft. If we accomplish those things, I have faith that we are at least moving in the right direction after many, many years doing the opposite.

      I am not so sure about that. I don't know that he is so soley offensively focused as winning focused. But, not really in a productive way. I get the impression he wants to be like Robert Kraft and take credit for "taking a risk on Bill Belichick" and being successful.  His track record indicates that in the NFL and in his business life.
