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.

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.

      OFFICIAL Week 1: Panthers @ Jaguars Game Day Thread

      No PFF grades up yet but the all-22 is up. Just watched the first passing play (Q1 6:45) from 3rd & 2 on the CAR 37 where Bryce scrambled for the first. Dowdle whiffed going low on the blitzing Oluokun, which forced Bryce to scramble. If not for that, that ball was going to XL on a corner route that he'd have been open. Concerning though that Bryce looked like he was staring the route down (which he definitely did on the first INT of the day). This doesn't absolve Bryce as he made several flat out bad plays throughout the game. Also rather damning is that of the 40 drop backs, according to the filters there was pressure on 16 vs. 24 w/o pressure... though I'm questioning the validity of the early filters because the very first play I mentioned is flagged as "no pressure" when there's very clearly pressure. The first INT was a bad play by Bryce. He thought Murray had started dropping deep to cover Brycen Tremayne, but Murray read Bryce's eyes the whole time which stayed on XL. Murray "broke the rule" here and made a play, but he also wouldn't have made that play had Bryce not been staring XL down for most of the route.   Might not get an all-22 review post up until later in the week. I've got a conference next week that I'm prepping for and the family is still reeling from one of our pets passing over the weekend.

      Tepper is still pulling the strings

      We're just bad. Canales is not a good coach. Morgan is not a good GM. Young is not a good quarterback.  We haven't drafted well in a long time. All this stuff adds up. And now we're in a situation where no matter who we hire they're going to be starting at a negative because they're going to have to draft good talent and fill the entire team up.  I don't know guys I think we could be bad for a long time.

      So true.  I would love to have Jim, Dan, or Sean here.  So sick of stinking it up for the first 8 games and then fixing things just to make sure we dont have a top draft pick so we have to trade the farm if we want a top pick.
