A few thoughts before sunday.

Cam Newton: Everyone has good or bad thoughts about this kid and its one pole or the other. What I expect to see Sunday is not a ACE but a Game manager. I dont want to see him have to throw to win the game and I want to see him rely on his backs. Yes its a throw back to John Fox but its effective when you have a young team.

DWill,Jstew, and Goodson: Come Sunday its there day! I want smash mouth Football that controls the clock and scores points. I want a rushing attack that will draw the Safety in the box where Play action will make them pay.

O-line: Lets keep the back moving and the Rookie upright OK;) Thanks

WRs/TEs: Guys your first game may be more about blocking than routes but a Win is a Win.

Ok now for intermission

Now onto Defense

Two things I want to see... Blitzing and doubling Fitz.

Everyone knows Kolb has a bad deep ball and its worse when throwing off his back foot. Lets keep him under pressure all day!

Secondly we cant let Fitz kill us underneath. We need to keep two men on him all the time.

Lastly we need to keep the short routes to the minimum. Take Kolbs bread and butter away and make them beat us over the top and on the ground.

Ok those were my thoughts now back to your regular scheduled programming.

I agree with leaning on the running game, but I would like to see some first down pass plays so Cam can make some easier completions against base defenses.

We also are going to have to take a couple of deep shots and deep seams with Smitty and Olsen to make sure they just pack the line of scrimmage.

that's a sound plan but teams already have a scheme to build on from last years offense but as we all know the quarterback position is what lost games last year. i say call some pass plays, run/pass balance out of the shot gun formations and pass more out of the i formations. it might even be a good idea to run a few bootlegs out of the different i-forms and shot guns to make the defense think.

Great points all around. Cam needs to lean on that effective (hopefully) three-headed monster we have in the backfield. With that said, a solid running game will just open up the doors for play-action and deep balls and keep their defense guessing. They won't know what hit 'em. Let's go Panthers!

Agree with Snake. Control the clock and keep our sorry Dline on sidelines or it could get ugly.I also want Cam to just let it hang out...play ball with his instincts and do not get so caught up in attempting to remember every little thing on his reads. That will come with time. By the way my first post after being on the Charlotte Observer forum. That thing has become so lame with only 1 or 2 guys posting!

    • I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too! 
    • Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.
    • Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
