15th Ranked Defense

I am honestly enjoying watching our defense. Take away the Giants game and the 4th quarter of the Falcons game I have been extremely impressed. They are young, fast, and getting better. If we can get the proper coaching and another top 10 pick, we are on our way to having a very solid D. I love our DE threesome of CJ, Hardy, and Alexander. We need a few DT's. Davis, Anderson, Kuechly, and hopefully a healthy Beason can be built around. Then hopefully Gamble comes back strong along with an improving Norman. With the right GM and Coaching, our D isn't far.

They are definitely getting better. I wonder how much of that has to do with Rivera's more hands on approach with the D from last year? With keuchly taking up the beasting in the middle, we've done nothing but improve and I see them getting even better as the season goes on.

What sucks is that at the end of last season and all off season..I said if we had a middle of pack defense with this offense we were playoff bound. WOW facepalm I couldnt of been more wrong.

It is awesome to not see our D ranked 28or 29th as usual.

i still credit that prediction. you didn't know chud was going to go all bat poo crazy on us. no one can predict that. he finally stops doing it in the chi game, and we were in it until the last 3 seconds [and that's with giving chi the ball at the 45-50 yard line every time].

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
