according to USA Today...deshaun foster is going to help cam newton

Recommended Posts

Ron RiveraCarolina Panthers

Age: 49

Previous position:San Diego Chargers' defensive coordinator.

Coaching highlights: Third Latino head coach in NFL history, following Tom Fears and Tom Flores. San Diego led league in 2010 in fewest yards allowed (271.6) and fewest passing yards (177.8). Oversaw Chicago defense that finished third in scoring defense in helping franchise reach Super Bowl XLI to close 2006 season.

Challenges ahead: Must take great care grooming inexperienced but promising QB Cam Newton, top pick in draft. Must avoid pushing him to do too much too soon in effort to turn around two-win team. Return to health of RB DeShaun Foster should help. Immediate defensive improvement will be expected after the Panthers spent heavily to retain defensive end Charles Johnson and others.

What he says: "I'm very proud of the fact that I am of Hispanic descent. I'm very honored to have this opportunity."

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
