Who will be with the Panthers longer?

Luke Kuechly or Cam Newton?

I'm going to Kuechly. Dude is a tackling MACHINE and reminds me of Brian Urlacher mixed with Ray Lewis. Quickly has become my favorite Panther. Just a guy who goes out there, gets the job done, doesn't showboat. I love it. Once he was plugged in the middle, the defense showed a noticeable improvement all across the board. Barring injury, see him holding down the middle for Carolina for the next decade.

As for Cam...who knows. He might not even stick with the team another 3 years. New GM, new coaching staff, might want to bring in their own guy. All the showboating, diva attitude, rubs a lot of people the wrong way. I hold out hope that he becomes the player everyone thinks he can be but the smart money is on Kuechly being here longer than Cam.

Thoughts?

Anybody else notice how Kuechly has made James Anderson almost a non factor? It's painfully obvious that even Thomas Davis is better than Anderson. Which I don't necessarily mind or am surprised by, anderson is still a decent player, but we gave Anderson great player money to be the third best linebacker? Awesome.

i think next year beason takes anderson's starting role...of course that assumes TD is healthy again (and beason isn't traded).

beason-kuechly-TD

flat out awesome LB corps.

with hardy and CJ out front and a CB corps of the joshes, capt, and maybe gamble off. that could be a quite studly defense. i'll just go ahead and say that ron and dwan are probably back unless ron gets replaced. need to keep dwan around. that could be quite nice.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
