I wish we still had this defense

That video brings back some real 'warm, fuzzy' to me! One thing that seems to be apparent is that the 'Cats never replaced the 'tude' Minter brought to the team. He was a hard hitting son-of-a-gun, and I miss him. I think the team does too!

Beason and Harris are bringing it back

i miss it to..but i think as our defense stands right now were a DB and a DT away from bein just as good

I don't know if I would say that. Comparing the '03 starters to the '09 projected starters:

DE: Peppers > Johnson

DT: Jenkins > Kemoeatu

DT: Buckner > Lewis

DE: Rucker > Brayton

OLB: Witherspoon > Davis

MLB: Morgan = Beason

OLB: Greg Favors < Diggs

CB: Terry Cousin < Gamble

CB: Reggie Howard = Marshall

SS: Minter = Harris

FS: Deon Grant > Godfrey

Every starter on the defensive line was better than every starter we'll have next year. Linebackers and secondary are pushes.

Not to mention we had good depth on the bench.

Al Wallace

Ricky Manning Jr.

Mike Minter, Mike Rucker, Brentson Buckner and The Principal in their prime...

A pre-disgruntled Julius Peppers and Kris Jenkins...

A pre-rule enforcement change Ricky Manning Jr...

Will Witherspoon, and a mostly healthy Dan Morgan...

And Sam Mills coaching the linebackers...

I could cry :(

I like many of the elements we have in place now, mind you, but that defense could knock the snot out of people.

    • there is one common denominator in the 2003 & 2015 Carolina Panthers teams they both had ELITE top tier Qb play.  it would require a MVP type of season from Bryce Young to have the same type of success that Jake Delhomme had in  2003 & or Cam Newton in 2015 & lead this team to a SuperBowl is this going to happen or is there any reason to believe Bryce Young is capable of playing similar to Jake Delhomme in 2003 or Cam Newton in 2015 ? well no there is no absolutely NO reason whatsoever to believe that this is going to happen in 2026 ..just saying 
    • I'd actually like to see Cherelus get a fair shot to win the job in camp. Wallace is decent in drop zone coverage, but he gets abused in the play action game and is often times out of position in the run game. It might just be me, but I swear every time I watch Wallace play, I see multiple plays a game were it looks like he's just trying to be blocked. Watching Cherelus last year he at least looked like he was trying to hit someone on every play. Wallace plays like a LB who doesn't trust what he sees and it makes him passive and cautious versus Cherelus who regardless of if his decision is right or wrong goes at it 100%. 
    • Agreed.  Hasn’t happened to me either, but I feel very strongly about it.  That’s not just one of the worst things a woman could do to a man, it’s a power inherent to only women and is one of the worst things a HUMAN being can do to another.  A man can’t “hide” a pregnancy or maternity.  It’s impossible.  And that sucks for anyone that has to go through that. I always got a weird vibe off her and just found her very unlikeable.  Annoying even.  I’ve always been good at reading people and there was just something about her to me that was off-putting, somewhere under the surface.  And here we are…  she is despicable.
