Lucas loves attention but doesn't want attention. He drove a Rolls Royce Bentley and wondered why Charlotte's pedestrians and drivers would stare in the windows to see who was inside. Tired of the scrutiny, he dumped the Rolls and began driving more pedestrian vehicles -- a Maserati and an orange Range Rover. Hey, he practically disappeared.
huh?

LOOK AT MEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

WAAHHHHHHH!!!!!EVERYONE"S LOOKING AT ME!!!!!!!

schizo attention *****.

If he genuinely thinks fans have that much influence, then why is Jake still here? Why did it take so long for Matt Moore to start over David Carr last year? Or Williams over Foster?

I don’t disagree with him about Lucas being a decent player, and I agree that our pass rush made him look worse than he is, but to say that the fans are responsible for Lucas’ departure is ridiculous.

I would hope that the Panthers aren't making football decision based on the fans response.

The Panthers listen to the fans less than any other team in the league. It took them over a decade to get some form of the Panther logo on the field. I doubt they listen to us when it comes to personnel.

Try being an Eagles fan.

A Rolls Royce Bentley?? I didn't know those two companies teamed up to make a car...

Sorenson is a moron and to make the assumption that a team releases a player because the fans want them to is ridiculous. He needs to get his finger out of his a** and do some real reporting on the Panthers.

John Fox needed something or someone to pin the blame on for his horrific defense and schemes the 2nd half of the season. The fans jumped on Lucas and the Panthers responded by firing and thus appearing to be "correcting" part of the problem. Lucas wasn't a problem w/ what occured on defense. No pass rush, lame zone scheme and Godfrey being lost.....made Lucas an easy scapegoat. Fox deserves the blame for putting people in a position to fail. He ran his same tired defense that didn't have the front four to make it successful.

If we don't bring in a decent vet at CB....we will definately be weaker in talent in comparison to last season. If we do indeed lose Peppers in a trade for draft picks only......it will be hard to watch the Panthers on defense next season. Fox has proven to only want to rely on his front four and his occasional blitz schemes also have appeared very obvious and unproductive overall the past few seasons. For a defensive guru, Fox has proven to lack a great defensive mind in Carolina. His defensive scheme is very similar to his ground game......he runs the same crap regardless of who he has on the field. That isn't great coaching. That is a coach who finds success only when he has the right pieces for his 1 and only plan.

CRA,

So if Ken Lucas were in another system he'd be Deion Sanders? Blaming one player is sometimes overly simplistic, but I'm sorry, Ken Lucas was making too much money and wasn't producing enough to justify that contract.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
