Interesting read on our new safety, Nakamura.


Recommended Posts

“I take a lot of pride in special teams, and you can just see by the way I play,” Nakamura said. “Whenever I step on that football field I play as hard as I can. … I don’t settle to be average. I don’t put special teams in the backseat.”

I like this guy. He seems to have his head in place and has a bit of swag to him. Special teams might be something special this coming year.

Well, it's a start.

Now, get Chris Gamble to reduce his cap number to $2.5 Million, so the Panthers can sign either CB Jason Allen of the Texans OR CB William Middleton of the Jags. This defensive backfield needs a MAJOR upgrade, and either of these players will fit in nicely as a starter. That way, the 'Cats can move The Captain to his natural nickel position.

The alternative is to see what it would cost to trade for Asante Samuel. Either way, it would expose Gamble for the Poser he really is. If the Panthers had a bona fide CB on the other side, Gamble would get thrown at and torched all day long...and we already know he can't tackle.

Gamble had a great year, that fool don't know what he is talking about, Gamble covered every #1 WR and damn near shut them all down.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
