Tackling

Yea the tackling is crappy. I just don't see carolina having a good season unless the offense carries the D all season long. I am afraid if panthers go 4-12 this season. Fox might end up out the door like George Seifert did when carolina went 1-15. Fox has been a good coach over the years for carolina and all. And also took them to 2 NFC champship and went to the superbowl. But you get to a point as a fan when you just wondering if Fox motivevation is working anymore. That bringing in a new coach would bring a fresh new look to the panthers. And know I am not just talking bout just Bill Cowher either. Just a new coach to give panthers a new feel. So far in these 3 preseason games I have not seen hardly any type of good pressure from carolina front four. The offense is doing a decent job right now. But if carolina should go 4-12 don't be surprise to see a new coach in carolina next year.

I think that this will carry over to the regular season. I'm afraid it's going to be a long season.

I'm wondering if stripping the ball and creating turnovers has been emphasized in practice and the players are trying too much to do that rather than wrap up and have the 2nd or 3rd guy strip. I too feel it will carry into the regular season if not addressed ASAP

I could pick 5 random middle-aged guys from the neighborhood and we could do a better job tackling than I saw from the Panthers tonight.

Hell, I might even call up my grandpa who is on oxygen and doesn't walk to show them how to tackle.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I honestly didn't like trading up on the 2nd to draft a RB with a torn ACL. That didn't seem like a great move for this roster. But it wouldn't be a bad move if he proved to be a quality starter. But now signing Chuba to starter money on the hells of that? Yeah, that's significant roster building assets tied up in the RB position which has been a hallmark of the Panthers' roster building thought process over the years which has led to zero sustained success on the field.

      But it's not a plug and play like teams were thinking.  Ask the Cowboys and the Bears thinking they were fine letting Montgomery walk.  Ask the Texans who had to trade for Mixon because their backfield held them back.  @Bear Handsbroke down the top running teams in the league and they have a very similar allocated of money/investments in the RB room.  It's a $15 million guaranteed contract over 4 years.  IF we are paying him the full 32 then he is playing very well and earning 8 plus million a year over 4 years.  I don't think we are doing the starter/backup scenario.  Our OC even said he has plays featuring both backs in the backfield.  We are trying to be a RB committee with a RB room that isn't that expensive compared to the league average.  IF Chuba plays to his top potential and we pay out all money he will average between Stevenson and Swift's average salary.

      I'm just reporting it, not getting excited.  That will no doubt go down with new contracts. But because we've been drafting so many busts, there's no one in house to extend lol.  Could be spent on a lot of known resources.
