LB Jon Beason says Panthers defense will be 'blitz-happy and aggressive'

Not really worried about the defense...to be honest at all really. With Beason leading them and Rivera's defensive mastermind and versatility I am sure it will be at least solid. It's this whole 'attacking offense' with Cam that I am waiting to see be executed. That will be impressive.

Need another top end CB then. Can't exactly leave Munnerlyn, RJ Stanford or Robert McClain on an island.

Very true. That Johnson/McDermott defense is an aggressive style that relies on big plays which it will do. It is a double edge sword though and it will give up big plays as well. Eagles struggled with talent in the secondary and that is why they were one of the worst in the league at defending the pass under McDermott. I think the Panthers will do well with it though once everyone gets settled in. Definitely something for Panther fans to look forward to. It won't be boring that is for sure.

Good article, but everything I expected. I have ALWAYS LOVED Jim Johnson's defenses and put them right on par with the Steelers and Ravens in terms of style and aggression.

What gets me is we have had the personnel to blitz well for years. I hated that ghey assed Tampon 2 Bull poo.

Big problem with Foxball... Never adjusted to his personnel. Also, as the article mentioned, he was so conservative... Always letting the offense dictate what our defense did.

Not anymore, smack those MFers in the mouth, slam their weak, fragile bodies to the ground and tell them if they get up you're coming back to do it again. This is what this team was built for.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go wash up.

    • Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.
    • I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
    • What weird blood red moon has cast its spell?  What’s next, dogs and cats sleeping together? Bonus question:  Did Canales open up his playbook or did Bryce find an extra high gear in his stick shift?
