Carolina Panthers Hall of Fame


NJPanthers12

Recommended Posts

I get the feeling after 20 years the Panthers could start their own Hall of Fame. This isn't a statue or a retired number, rather just a honor to players who will be honored by the organization. If this were to happen who do you believe would deserve induction? Some players I would definitely put in:

Jake Delhomme QB

Brad Hoover FB

Muhsin Muhammad WR

Wesley Walls TE

Mike Rucker DE

Mike Minter S

John Kasay K

And for Active Players:

Steve Smith WR

Jordan Gross OL

Thomas Davis LB

i am probably going to get destroyed for this but why is sam held in such high regard with this team? he only played, what, 3 of his last career years here? then he coached. i get the whole "heart" thing but statistically, he has been surpassed by many players that are just as deserving of the honor as he. for the organization to not recognize those players is a travesty. i would agree that his might be only statue we have but to not retire other numbers is just dumb. if the very day smitty retires, we do not retire his number, fans should revolt. banging the drum is not nearly a big enough honor for those guys.

This is a pet peeve of mine. Just type IB (in before).

 

That said, I hope we do have a HOF soon. And why in the hell has no one else been added to the ring of honor at BOA? Is there a five year wait (Kasay)? We've been around long enough now to have more than three names on the ring, two of which (IMHO) shouldn't even be there.

What he did with what he had is amazing, but Mills will always be a Saint to me. Sort of like Reggie White.

because there's more to life than statistics.

 

in his few years here he had a bigger impact on this franchise and it's identity than probably any player we've ever had. he, in a sense, forged and personified what it means to be a carolina panther. you fight. you keep pounding. he is the example to everyone that puts on that panther jersey of what they are supposed to be. he set the standard. that is why he has a statue. that is why no one will wear his jersey. he is revered not for his numbers, but for who he was as a man and a player.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
