I like that Cam said 'fingers crossed might be the only time with the same offense for two years straight'.

This should certainly kill any idea that our offense would take a huge hit if Chud leaves. Cam has put together an amazing offense wherever he goes. Look at Auburn this year without him.

I hope Cam takes over the team like a Brady or a Brees'. Now that Rivera has pretty much told him this is his team now.
That's the direction it has to go considering his rookie year. Good thing he's got the valued vets on this team to guide him. He really doesn't have to carry the weight alone by any means.

I cant believe this year is over already.

2010 was like having your balls pounded with a sledge every weekend.

This year we actually saw talent, hope, and progress.

Hope next year comes as quickly as this year past.

I agree, this season was upon us then flew by. I drank to much to remember 2010 :D

I haven't been this excited about my Panthers in a while.

Hoping the Sophomore Slump doesn't creep into Cam. I think he is far too much of a leader for that to happen. MAN I think we're going to be dangerous next year!

Seems to me that once Newton is a vet and is accepted as the leader of the team, then he will step up and take ovnership of the teamparticularly when we get behind and things get tough. The biggest knock on him is that he gets down on himself when he screws up or the offense sputters. He needs to be exorting the defense and the offense to make a play and get a lead instead of sitting by himself with a towel over his head moping around.

I think that is what Rivera wants to happen and believes once he becomes a veteran instead of deferring to them like he did this year as a rookie, he will take more of an ownership for the team and its performance on both sides of the ball.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      By CRA · Posted

      I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.

      Ikem Ekwonu is slated to GET PAID

      By Basbear · Posted

      I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By CRA · Posted

      I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
