The Panthers are averaging 8.1 penalties for 70 yards per game.

I'm stealing from another thread to let you know what I think about this.

How is this compared to the rest of the league?

Worse than most. Better than few. I looked at all the games for us. I don't have the time to do it for 31 more teams, and I don't know where to find rankings. Regardless we're giving up enough yards in penalties to equate to points.

It isn't just penalties but when they occur. How many drives were stalled on offensive penalties? On defense we have 2 PI calls in the endzone which gave Atlanta 14 points. It isn't just how many or the number of yards but how often these are momentum killers and results in 1st and 20 versus 2nd and 3.

Other teams make penalties, sure. But we seem to have a knack for doing ours at the worst possible time. We went down by two touchdowns and practically gift wrapped two touchdowns by our pass interference in the red zone...the other team only has to defeat us; we have to defeat them and stop beating ourselves.

timing is everything. we just played dumb yesterday. if it wasn't for those two penalties and that tipped INT in the endzone we could have won that game.

well...there was a lot more that cost us the game, but still those things hurt really badly.

we didn't make them work at all for two TDs, though. we helped them out a lot. we put them right in the perfect position for TDs.

KK the refs have had it in for our team since expansion. We might as well play with a flag up our ass.

I've heard that argument a lot and even thought it myself, but arguing with numbers is illogical. Take a look at the list, and see that we are penalized nearly the same amount as teams that the league supposedly loves.

21 New England

24 Dallas

26 Carolina

      Panthers re-signing P Sam Martin

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Sam Martin   CARPunter#6 Panthers re-signed P Sam Martin to a two-year contract. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Martin’s deal is up to $5 million. Martin joined the Panthers last season on a one-year deal and wound up booting 56 punts for an average of 47.2 yards per punt. Martin is a 13-year vet of the league who has spent time with four different franchises. He landed a career-best 48.2 percent of his kicks inside his opponent’s 20-yard line last season.

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      By Basbear · Posted

      Surprised CB is that low.  19th is odd spot. For many recent drafts, teams only felt there were around 14 first round players.  So to many 19 is just an early second and doesn't hold the value of a first.  If you go off- the smart path of LT, QB, edge, WR, CB, etc. Whatever your OG, Safety, ILB, etc needs to be a difference maker, that's the key point. I've said the 8th best edge is better than the 1st safety. Same for QB and even WRs. You should 100% factor in position value.  MHS you've been wanting a FS, let me tell you its super difficult to be a difference making FS. You're just sooo farrrr away from the action and the end result most times. If you're in the play, defense made mistakes in order. Now to talk out of both sides, maaaaaann that white boy from Oregon....I thought he crushed the combine and honestly that alone made me rethink "is he worth 19 now?!?!" he's now in the discussion for me, but still below others.    Plus I feel TE is vastly underrated in value terms. But looking at the last 20 years of TEs in the first, its down right bad. You're better like X10 better drafting one in 4th or 5th.
