Everett Brown was getting manhandled by a pass catching TE ( Jermaine Gresham) I rewatched the d in the first half play by play and it is unfuging believeable.

Seriously I have never been a Brown hater but after seeing him consistently get turned and pushed back by a pass catching TE...:eek: Rivera will see this and he will never touch the field outside of 3rd down again. Scratch that he should be cut. I finally have to agree with everybody.

I agree. I hated the pick (esp. giving up a first for him). He doesn't have the body or power to play the position & it has always showed. He can't even rush the passer, but in run support he looks aweful.

I was high on Rivera, but with some of the things he is doing, I am getting nervous that he will look like a rookie head coach rather than a vet defensive guru.

To 'Vampire the buffet slayer': WTF?! Why all of the hate? This is actually a good topic regarding the state of our beloved Panthers/roster.

Because he is a tool. They troll around and say this thread is gay and blah blah blah...

But back to the subject in hand....Brown looks pretty bad but the LB's seem out of position alot also, which is why when Brown was blocked there was always a huge gaping hole, but I will attribute that to just learning the system. The LB's can correct their problem ,but Brown is not going to gain HE MAN strength any time soon.

You are right. We do have very good LBs, but they have been out of position & taking bad angles. I think that comes down to the fac that the DL is not creating the usual gaps for the LBs to expose & then they are chasing the RBs instead of hitting them at the point of attack. The gapeing holes are probably our D-linemen acting like floor rugs to TEs & average O-linemen.

The real problem is the GM...trading away picks for guys like E. Brown. Armanti Edwards...this guy would have been on the board in the later rounds...that 2nd round pick is coming back to haunt us...hell Bowers fell to the Bucs in the 2nd round...couldve drafted a Newton and Bowers in the same draft?!?!?!?!? What?!?! Thanks mr. GM

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
