Do you think that the bump-and-run will fare well?

The rule book has just about killed the bump and run and made it where you need corners that can run with the receivers and have a closing burst in order to close distance. Harris is not a great coverage back but is more of a punisher or enforcer and makes people pay for making catches. That makes for a tough defense to pass against and that causes the QB to hold the ball a second longer and that makes for DEs to have high sack #s.

No it didn't. It made bumping after 5 yards illegal, but until then all bets are off. Since one of the main bitches on this board for years is that we lay off the receivers for 10 yards, I'd love to see bump and run...

mike minter at his best was just average so im not sure how difficult it will be for godfrey to surpass him

only thing Godfrey has done so far is get Ken Lucas kicked to the curb.....Godfrey was bad last year. He has a long way to go to even be thought of as a Mike Minter (and Minter was very good outside of his last couple seasons when he got too old).

i know some might hate me for this but i just thought i should mention when looking at madden rating, which are rooted off some fact, something i dont feel like looking up, captain munnerlyn has 10 points more press coverage ability than any other player on our roster. I guess he must have been pretty damn good in college? thought it was interesting too that it was soo high for such a late round pick.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
