I have never had as much confidence in our secondary as I do right now. We are getting some great defense out of our DBs. The Cards are as dangerous a passing team as there is in the league and we handled them with relative ease. The Saints are on a different level but I am pretty pumped to see how we come out against that offense. Should be a good test...

Our pass defense was fabulous, without a doubt. Martin was a fantastic surprise, but Gamble, Marshall and Munnerlyn were great as well. Dante Wesley in as a linebacker on certain plays was a stroke of genius and I am betting that we'll see that against Nawlins as well.

I think Wilson played better then Capt yesterday. I think we have some good depth at CB.

Our secondary's only as good as our pass rush. If our pass rush is anywhere near as effective as it was against the Cards, then I feel a lot better about our chances.

If Peppers shows up like he did last Sunday then the Saints are in trouble. God Im glad Beason lit a fire under his ass. The Saints D is what worries me. If they can stop the run then we are in trouble. Never thought I would say that.

The Cards WRs are better than the Saint's but Brees is a hell of a lot better than Warner. A lot of those passes last night were absolutely perfect. Atl's secondary is pretty weak but I don't see how anyone could have defended those. Unrelenting pressure and keeping Brees off the field will be key(yes, I am captain obvious).

Through all the frustrations with this secondary and this defense, the one thing we've seen that has held up as designed in this scheme is the ability to stop the big play. I don't see that changing against the Saints. In my mind, the question is whether or not we'll be able to stop them from putting together drive after drive of 8-15 yard passes - exactly what Atlanta did to us.

      Would you trade Ickey

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      I didn't say I would have done it. I was just saying that I can see why some in the FO considered it. Everything was done to give Bryce weapons. Solidify the interior line thru FA. Get XL at WR in round 1 and then get the most talented RB in round 2. Take a TE in round 4, etc They were probably "assuming" he'd make a complete recovery during the 2024 season. I'm a skeptical person. I wouldn't have assumed he'd be ok in 2024. I personally would have taken another position in the 2nd for that very reason. But, if I were "influenced" to take him I would've argued to keep him off the field, especially seeing how things were going for us record wise. Conventional Wisdom says most backs don't get back to normal until two years after the ACL surgery. He was injured in Fall 2023. Having him suit up in 2025 would have been almost 2 years since the original injury. You have him for 3 year on low contract. If he balls out, you resign him for a couple of more years b/c he'd only have 3 years of tread on the tires. If he's ok but not great you let him walk.
