holy poo. Can you imagine? If this OL is back to speed, then you have Olsen on one side, Shockey on the other, Both of our RB's are back in the fold, Steve smith is back...whew!!

I really think we must go with the 'Ace' as our base formation esp. with this rookie QB. Wow, just fuging WOW!

I suspect we will see lots of 12, 21, 22, and 11 personnel groupings this year. The ace formation is simply one of the many options available in either 12 or 11 personnel groupings. (for those not familiar with the terms, the first number refers to the number of running backs in a play and the second one refers to the number of TEs. If you count 5 players on the line and the quarterback makes 6 total, add in the running backs and tight ends, that tells you how many receivers are left when you subtract from 11.) So in 12 personnel you have 2 wide receivers and in 11 personnel you have 3 wide receivers. In 10 personnel you have a single running back, no tight end and 4 wide receivers.

For those who care..................

I have been wanting to see the Panthers run out of single back sets for awhile now. Deangelo is a threat inside and out and can catch, Stewart ran from a singleback formation in college.

I think that it would really help out having a rookie QB and being able to disguse run/pass plays with that formation.

See I am thinking in the 11 we will see olsen or Shockey (most likely olsen) split in the slot off the LOS with shockey still on the line.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
