CB2, SS, and ST Needs To Be Addressed If The Panthers Want A SB

Worley is better than anybody in this thread is giving him credit for.

This preseason there are a lot of fans being overly critical of developing players....in preseason!!!

 

My true. If Worley becomes as good as PF thinks he already is, they need to be getting his bust ready for Canton.

That chemistry proved to be a hindrance last season, didn't it? Cam went away from going through his progressions and locked onto him. You can call it trust. I call it comfort. Cam knows he can throw the ball just a bit higher where Benji can make a play on it out of the reach of a defender. Sometimes too much chemistry can be costly.

Well, my belief is that Peppers is still very serviceable and will likely be our third best pass rusher but the amount of hype he's getting on here... it's delusional. His athleticism is mind blowing but my point is that he's not going to be a force with us. Comments like the one in the previous page prove it. He's 34. Peppers is not going to play like he's 24. Zeke running him over last season is a clear indication.

I'm no Worley super fan. I'm simply sick of the poo from fans in here who aren't giving him a fair shake AFTER his rookie campaign. Yes, he's been a mixed bag this preseason but so have other great players like TD, Shaq, Stewart, Coleman, etc. We shouldn't be pressing the panic button before the regular season even starts. Wouldn't you say that's fair?

Again, interesting the things that you say about KB while calling anyone who has ever criticized Worley for anything a "poo fan".

Most teams don't have a great #2 CB. Worley will do fine, IMO. He's still young and will have some slip ups here and there, but one poor preseason game is no reason to give up on a talented 2nd year player.

I'm not overly worried about ST. That fake punt was a flukey play that most teams would have fallen for. If I have one concern on ST it's Gano in the clutch.

SS... it's too soon to say. Mike Adams has been a solid veteran player for a while now, but is aging. I feel like if he can give us what Roman Harper did (solid, if unspectacular play with the occasional bad game) we'll be fine with him as the starter.

I do worry about depth at safety. We certainly don't want Colin Jones starting anywhere.

KB gets force fed for a reason. He and Cam have chemistry and Cam trusts him. You can take that one up with Cam if you'd like.

Of course Peppers isn't the same player. He's damn near 40. I've spent the entire offseason cautioning Panthers fans to not have ridiculous expectations for him this season. But, he's still a legit starting caliber DE and he'll prove it.

I'm not waiting on anything out of Worley other than him to show that he's an NFL caliber CB. I absolutely hope he does. I just want what's best for the Panthers. I've been wrong about players before and I'll be wrong again about players in the future. So will every coach, scout, and GM present, past, and future.

But seriously, what's your deal with Worley? Like I said, you'll bash the shot out of guys who have proven far more at the NFL level and blindly defend Worley no matter how bad he looks.

 

in the limited action he has seen, i thought peppers did well.... even on run plays... KB looks fine...anything we get out of Worley is gravy to me as I don't expect much out of him. He's about the same as  many of the other perpetual backup secondary players we have had... a daily reminder of a big reason  why G'man is gone .

I still can't figure out why we don't have pro bowlers at every position. Seems like every other team is able to fill out their rosters with them

Who said he had to be a pro bowler? Just be an average, solid starter (Worley).

KB gets horsefed and hasn't proved poo in clutch situations. Time and time again, he's provided nothing but garbage time stats. Get back to me when he actually puts on consistent performances where he doesn't disappear when we fall behind.

 

Stop using words you don't understand the meaning of.

This is gold considering you constantly go out of your way to trash on our best players in KB, not to mention you sh*t on Peppers now and hope JR dies. If only you could realize just how stupid you come across to others on here.
