Young Offensive Playmaker


Match.com

Recommended Posts

Last season was a complete turn around for the offense compared to the previous 2-14 season. The key addition of 1st round draft pic Cameron Newton and offseason acquistions like U of Miami alum Jermery Shockey and Greg Olson took the league by surprise. Steve Smith a talented player loss was now found in new offensive system with competent QB play was able to top the charts statistics of his respective position. That being said the Carolina Panther ended the season 6-10 with 8 out 10 losses comming in heartbreaking fashion. The defense was riddled by injury and the run defense had more holes than a mesh strainer. Now, weeks from the draft with defensive need a must we might have to reach for a defensive player....When the best player available at our position would most likely be an offensive player. we must make a trade.

My money is on Micheal Floyd....less three and outs and the best defense is a good offense...the nfl is changing. Sooner than later we are be watching professional flag footbal....Corners and recievers....

We've got too many defensive holes, I don't know if I'd want a WR at 9. Smith, LaFell, Gettis and Pilares + our TE's, + our RB's + Cam. 1st) We need a solid CB. 2nd) pass rushing DE or pocket collasping DT. 3rd) LB, although I'd hate to pass on Kuechly and 4th) a Punter. Everything else is gravy.

Pilares hasn't done diddly poo. Gettis ran the deep vertical well 2 years ago......

We are still too heavily dependent on an aging Steve Smith. One who has been known to have things break on him fairly frequently

I agree on the defensive holes....but I wouldn't be upset with one of the 2 WRs

I don't know what Steve Smith you're referring to, but 89 hasn't had anything breaking freaquently. Pilares and Gettis has proven much more than any WR we could draft.

2004- broken leg

2009- broken arm

2010- broken arm

2 of the breaks didn't result in major lost time due to when they occured.

3 breaks. He also plays like a maniac even in the preseason. Carolina eventually in the near near future is going to need to draft Cam his WR

    • For Bryce’s obvious shortcomings (bad pun), there is upside to his game. This isn’t being a homer or apologists, but I like to consider myself fair in criticism.  He’s far tougher than I ever thought he’d be. I really thought homie would have been broken in half by now. I don’t know how he’s not, but he’s not.  He is prone to turning the ball over early in games which digs a huge hole the team is not built to come back from, but dude DOES come up with crucial first down in crucial situations. It’s NEVER pretty, but he just kind of has the shining. He gets bailed out LOTS, and the team still loses games because of him, but he’s a bit of an enigma. He’s a turnover machine that is clutch in big moments.  He’s a smart/elusive cat. He kind of has to be with his limitations. His audibles are almost always correct and he understands coverages. I don’t see him getting fooled too frequently. His turnovers are almost never the ‘damnit Jake/Cam!’ brand we have been accustomed to. They are ALWAYS due to his size/strength limitations.  Strip sacks that shouldn’t be. Picks that happened because he just don’t got that NFL arm. He is still prone to panicking and the wheels can and do fall off at a much higher rate than his peers.  The team is winning on the backs of the defense, running game and special teams… but they’re winning, and unbelievably 1 game behind Tampa. As long as this is happening and Bryce doesn’t go full meltdown, Dave is going to keep him in. He is not getting pulled. 
    • This was a terrible podcast. A bunch of uninformed homers that had worse takes than the bottom 10% of the Huddle. I listened to a handful of podcasts this past offseason in search of new Panthers material since John Ellis doesn't do his pod anymore and The 4 Man Rush don't either. Immediately deleted it after the handful I listened to. Truly terrible.
    • The NFC South was so bad it sent a team with a losing record to the Playoffs that year. Wilks had players playing hard at the end but let’s not act like that was a good season. That season hurts even more now that we see in hindsight how good our QB situation was. We just didn’t know it.
