Pretty cool stuff and points to Cam stepping up as a leader once again:

 

"I challenged Lester before the game, setting our differences aside," former Auburn quarterback Cam Newtonicon-article-link.gif said. "I told him, 'I'm expecting big things from you.' He said, 'You know what, I'm going to get an interception, and when I get an interception, I'm going to bring it to you.'

 

"Lo and behold, he got an interception, and what did he do? He brought the ball right to me."

 

Smitty later went on to say about White, "For the last couple of weeks I had been calling him 'cement feet' just to get him to open up his feet." "Today, I walked past him and called him 'quick feet.'

 

Another interesting note about Melvin. He started off as a QB in high school and was asked to change to CB at Louisiana Lafayette.

 

Lester later said about being a future starter, "We have great talent here. I trust that the coaches are going to play the right guys. Whoever that may be, I wish them the best of luck. If it's me, I'm going to go out there and play ball."

The question is: Will they get a good amount of reps once we get guys like Mikell and Norman back?

Norman was benched. I see Mikell starting over Lester. But the good thing is he got game experience.

 

And Btw I don't wanna make another thread but Willie McGinest gave our team some major props on nfl network just now about the Giants game. Said he watched it twice and said our Defense is legit. Said we should be given way more credit. Of course the host made some snide comment after he said that.

He probably meant Thomas

I'd take White over Norman all day every day.

 

But Mikell is a top 10 NFL safety and needs to start when he's healthy.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
