First off, I would like to say that I have much respect for the Panthers. During the offseason I picked them as a sleeper in our little office game going on here. As of right now, the Panthers have proven me correct. Hope Panther fans give respect to fans of opposing teams (as long as their not idiots lol). I'm on the 500 level and I wouldnt want to throw any hecklers to the lower decks :D. I just hope this is an injury free game along with a Broncos win of course. Come on!!! You can afford one loss against a non conference team :thumbsup:. It will benefit you during the home stretch. Anyway, I'm not sure how tailgating goes for fans of opposing teams but hopefully I'll take part of the tailgating posted activities posted in the forums.

One nice thing about the NFC South - I have never had an issue wearing Panthers colors when going to a game in Tampa, Atlanta, or New Orleans. Okay, the ATL fans were a little rude a few weeks ago as we were walking out after that horrible performance of ours (perhaps a lot rude), but nothing that couldn't be handled by being pleasant in return.

Sure, there are always a few bad eggs in each city, but as long as you don't "taunt the natives", everything is usually okay. While I have attended games at BOA with friends who were fans of the opposing team, I have not seen them treated poorly -- and I would hope that Panthers fans would treat visitors nicely around the entire stadium, just as we would expect to be treated if we go on a road trip to support our team.

The Panthers 2009 scheduled road games include Dallas, NY Giants, New England, NY Jets, and the NFC West. Something tells me that visitors aren't going to be welcomed warmly in the NE, but I'm willing to give DAL, SF, or ARI a try. SEA, not so much - although I love visiting that city.

No, we don't play in the NFC West amongst the dregs of the league. Even our whipping boys (the Saints) are a pretty decent team. We must win every game to make sure we are in the playoffs, and we need to keep our spotless home record. The only budgeted loss we may able to come to terms with is next week at the Giants.

I had a great time in Oakland this year - ATL fans, at least inside the Dome, were far more rude.

I go to at least one away game every year, and if we play a cold weather team in September I will head north most likely - would like to get to ARI as well...but the far off goal is to get to all the stadiums eventually....

      Post Draft Luke and JJ Podcast

      By GamecockSmitty4 · Posted

      Here’s a summary of the JJ and Luke podcast transcript. Opening / Bryce Young Fifth-Year Option     •    JJ: Breaking news — Panthers picked up Bryce Young’s fifth-year option at $25.9M, guaranteed, coming in 2027. Combined with his 2025 salary of ~$6M, that’s $31M over two years — called it a “no-brainer.”     •    Luke: Enthusiastic about the move. Highlighted Bryce’s improving TD/INT ratios (11/10 → 15/9 → 23/11) and the value of entering year three with Dave Canales. Noted $25M is a bargain relative to the $60M top of market. Luke’s Personal Update — Charlotte Christian Football     •    Luke: Working with Charlotte Christian school football program, which hired a new head coach. Coaches include Greg Olsen, Luke, and Greg’s dad Chris Olsen (a New Jersey State coaching Hall of Famer).     •    JJ: Jokingly quipped that Charlotte Christian’s coaching staff is “the world’s greatest” — a Fox analyst, a Hall of Famer, and the best Panthers RB ever — all coaching middle school football.     •    Luke: Praised Chris Olsen’s deep football knowledge spanning decades and his ability to connect with kids. Round 1, Pick 19 — Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia     •    JJ: Panthers were on the clock and submitted their pick almost immediately — a sign of confidence and preparation. Freeling is 6’7”, 320 lbs, played in the SEC in a pro-style system.     •    Luke: Loved the pick. Emphasized you can never have too many quality offensive linemen. Noted Freeling’s size, athleticism, and arm length as key traits. Said the pick also reflects team’s philosophy of drafting great people, not just great players.     •    JJ: Noted reporter Darren Gantt compared Freeling favorably to Jordan Gross — bigger, heavier, and faster — as a potential franchise left tackle.     •    Luke: Pointed out that young players like Freeling still have physical development ahead of them, comparing the trajectory to Christian McCaffrey’s growth from age 20 onward. Round 2, Pick 49 — Lee Hunter, DT, Texas Tech     •    JJ: Panthers traded up from 51 to 49 (pick swap with Minnesota) to grab Hunter. Played audio from Panthers area scout Kaden McLuhan, who scouted Hunter.     •    Scout Kaden McLuhan (audio): Said Hunter’s size is immediately striking, and that everyone around him spoke glowingly about his character, energy, and love for the game.     •    Luke: Praised Hunter as a massive (6’3”, 320 lbs, ~34” arms) two-gap nose tackle who fits perfectly in the Evero defense. Compared his prospect profile to Akiem Hicks. Said having Derek Brown, Bobby Brown, Derrick Brown, Terson Wharton, and now Hunter creates varied body types that stress offensive linemen.     •    JJ: Noted Hunter ranked third among all prospects in run-stuff rate and sixth in interior pass-rush win rate — addressing a perception that he couldn’t rush the passer. Rounds 3–7 Highlights     •    Luke: Highlighted WR Brazle (3rd round, 6’4”, 437 speed, 1,000+ yards at Tennessee) as the vertical threat the offense needed. Also praised OL Sam Heck (5th round) as a technically sound player whose “short arms” caused him to fall but who has proven himself.     •    Luke: Mentioned CB Will Lee (6’1”, 33” arms) fits the Panthers’ DB prototype — big, long corners.     •    Luke: Praised S/LB hybrid Zaki Wheatley (5th round, 6’3”) as a big nickel similar to Trayvon Merek.     •    Luke: Excited about the linebacker competition between Devin Lloyd, Trevvin Wallace, and Claudin Cherless.     •    JJ: Noted Panthers had the #1 “steal/overreach” rating in the entire draft — drafting players lower than consensus big boards projected. Around the League     •    Luke: Admitted being “a little jealous” that the Miami Dolphins drafted LB Jacob Rodriguez (Luke’s favorite LB in the draft). Has personal connections to Miami’s coaching staff (Jeff Hafley, DC Shawn Dugen — a childhood teammate).     •    Luke: Also noted Miami’s selection of OT/G Kaden Proctor out of Alabama, who will likely move to guard. League Trends — Bigger Tight Ends / 12 & 13 Personnel     •    JJ: Observed the NFL saw its highest run rate in ~11 years (~52%) and a notable pivot toward big blocking tight ends in this draft.     •    Luke: Explained the cyclical nature of NFL offense/defense evolution — as defenses get smaller to match spread offenses, teams counter with bigger personnel (12/13 formations), which then forces defenses to get bigger at the nickel/“big nickel” spot. Called it an ongoing arms race.
