Should the Panthers defense respond in kind to teams that target Cam?

Obviously the refs aren't going to make calls for roughing the passer on Cam.  The more I think about it, the more emotional I get about the whole situation.  I think the Panthers defense should make a statement.  If opposing defenses make runs at Cam with no abandon, our defense should say "bump that" and take it to their QB.  Who cares if we get flags called on us, it's about making sure the other team know we aren't taking this bull anymore.

Uhm. No. I'm sure others feel differently, but not only is it a shifty thing to do to anyone, it would give the NFL that much more ammo to fug us over. I love that our team makes a big deal out of integrity on and off the field, and this would make our players just as dirty as the damn Broncos if they did that

We would have to actually pressure qbs to be in position to "respond" to anything.

Yes.  Eye for an eye.  Sends a message and will force the refs to either call it evenly, or not call it at at all for both teams, as it provides an in-game comparison that can't be ignored.  Keep being men of integrity on and off the field, but protecting your own by any means necessary is certainly within the realm of integrity.  JMO...

Really? Sell your soul for a win and a trophy? Wow.

More of a statement that this type of behavior is not penalized in any substantial way.  Couple of fines maybe and an admonishment or two, but the record books don't change. Bullies are going to bully until there is some sort of push back they can appreciate.

No Way in Hell.

We're better than that!

Imagine if our players did that and some guy was seriously injured / paralyzed.  Would you want that to be on one of our guy's consciences just for the sake of making a point, "getting revenge"

Panthers stand for integrity.   I want them to keep it that way.

      Then we had some impressive coaches to finish 8th from worst plus all of our injuries.  Titans and Raiders were pretty bad as well.

      Agents have been out-negotiating GMs for years. That's why they had to implement the rookie wage scale. Top drafted rookies were basically starting to walk into the NFL as some of the highest paid guys in the league. Take it up in the next CBA. In the meantime, it is what it is. Agents hold the upper hand in these rookie negotiations and they know it. The teams already have a significant unrecoverable investment spent on these draftees in the value of the pick that they spent. Given the rookie wage scale there's not much to negotiate other than guarantees and offset language and once again the agents are kicking the GMs' asses again.

      Except it's not about the money, it's precedent and teams not wanting to go down that path.  Once you guarantee all the 2nd rounders, then the 3rd rounders will want it, and so on.  If they keep viewing it as say, "well it's only X amount of money" then it's a slippery slope that doesn't end. Then you get Free Agents saying, "well if you're fully guaranteeing the contract of an unproven 57th pick of the draft, you clearly should be fully guaranteeing mine as your big FA signing this offseason" The NFL doesn't work with fully guaranteed contracts under it's current cap model.  If you want to give them out to the true elite of the elite players at impact positions like QB and Edge, then so be it, but there needs to be a line in the sand or it will get real messy.
