Face of the franchise?

Just wondering who you all consider to be the face of the Panther’s ?

It think Peppers is/was our most noticeable player from both stand points of here and across the league. With the likely possibility that he will be leaving here within in the next year, who would you like to see be the face of the franchise.

I see that many fans, myself included are really starting to put all hopes on Jon Beason.

We could also argue for Smith, for I think he is hands down the best player we have on our roster. Although in my humble opinion I don’t look at Smith as a team leader to the face of the franchise. No disrespect to Steve at all, for he is a top 3 receiver in my book and has meant so much for all football team. Talent, effort, and as competitive as they come Steve only lacks a bit in the character department.

Beason’s talent, commitment and heart were all clearly displayed last year on the playing field, but what really stands out to me is his character. I so looked forward to hearing him every week on WFNZ. Beason is so genuine, polite and respectful to all his peers. He does not have a ballooned ego and remains humble. To me when a player of his caliber shows all those qualities – that’s a player the franchise can truly be proud of.

Yeah Beason by far. He took over the team last year and now it's his. And a lot of the sports media have noticed it too. He is going to blow up this year as far as coverage goes. Everybody will know who he is and that he plays for the Panthers.

to me the face of the franchise is the pearson everybody in and out of the league knows..thats not beason yet..he is a realtive unknown outside the NFL...take tom brady for example if you ask anybody fan or not of football most will say i have heard of tom brady..the panthers dont have that guy yet...but inside of football our face is peppers and jake..for all the wrong reasons and smith

I'm going with DeAngelo Williams... he was the one making the majority of the highlights for your team and is the true bright spot to the Panthers.

Beason is a top 3 MLB in the leauge though, he just doesn't get the Ray Lewis type of exposure. DeAngelo did some amazing things and offensive guys always get the exposure (his multiple 4 touchdown games)

Beason IMO is better then Ray or Urlacher.

Ray's main advantage is having Ed Reed behind him and a stout dline infront of him... I think the Ravens will take a drop in defense this year.

Is Beason a vocal guy?

Talent wise, he's 2nd best behind Pat Willis at the MLB spot.

    • I think where they would be picked if redrafted before both classes have played enough football to really tell.  Baker literally looked like a washout with us after Cleveland gave up on him, then turned world beater with the Rams, got a prove it deal with the Bucs and has looked awesome ever since. Asking where Ward would’ve went had he went in ‘24 is just stupid.  I’m no GM, but I wouldn’t have taken Williams #1 either.  I would’ve taken Joe Milton way higher than he went.  I think Shadeur should’ve been a first round pick this year.  Point being, opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.  It’s my opinion that Ward has that “something special.”  I get that feeling that he’ll be an even better pro than he was a collegiate QB because of whatever that quality is.  I think he’s gonna surprise a lot of people, especially being such an under appreciated first overall pick.
    • Where do we get our T-shirts and hats? Pretty sure this is the first championship ever in professional basketball or football in Charlotte!
    • Nice turnaround for Kon.  I’m still a little worried about his ability to create for himself and others, but it was SL.  Come regular season, he will playing a much different role and shots will be there for him.  He showed some reason for hope - and not just him, but the whole squad.  I suppose for the first time ever, we have drafted and acquired enough young talent that we actually not only competed for once, but won the whole thing in summer league.     Kon, Simpson, and Sims made all the difference.  Almost every year prior I felt we always struggled because we usually didn’t have a floor general/real PG to get us into offense.  This was such a breath of fresh air.  And look at us!  We finally are champions!😂
