Panthers Get Unexpected Christmas Gift

I'm sure Luck will be a fine NFL quarterback. The Colts will probably take him with the top pick this spring, and he will be able to learn under Peyton Manning for a couple of years before taking the big stage.

But the Panthers' greatest gift this year was one they didn't even know they wanted. Newton has taken Panther fans on a thrill ride like we had with that three-wheeler--some bumps and bruises along the way, but the promise of years of “did you see that?” moments we'll never forget.

I have an interesting question concerning Cam. How much credit does Derek Anderson get for Cam's development. The only area I really see DA helped Cam in, is pump faking the ball and looking off defenders. In the pre-season, Cam didn't do any of that. Then in the 4th pre-season game, DA came in against the Steelers and played well. Pump faking and hitting a guy deep for a touchdown. So in the Arizona game, I noticeably saw Cam pump fake a couple of times, and I credit DA in that area. How about you guys, did DA help Cam this year?

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
