we might mess around and have an elite defense in a year or two.

also, Darin  Newberry just said this about Phil Snow.

"Reason for optimism: Defensive coordinator Phil Snow

The first-year NFL defensive coordinator has dealt with losing his Pro Bowl tackle and his starting end, safety and cornerback. Snow started six rookies in Thursday's game against Atlanta. And yet the defense has played well enough to give the Panthers a chance to win almost every week. The credit goes to Snow, whose ability to adjust and use of multiple formations in a bend-but-not-break attack has made the Panthers more competitive than many expected through the first eight games. He has by far made a bigger impact than offensive coordinator Joe Brady, who came in as the hot coaching candidate. -- David Newton"

He's not wrong.  Which is weird to say.

Burns is showing potential to become elite -- he's beating his man fairly regularly, but we need to see him get to the QB more often. Closing that gap will make him astounding, considering he seems to be a master at knocking the ball loose.

No Who’s on first.

Confirms what you see on tape. Honestly I’ve been even more impressed with his improvements in the run game. He’s a huge reason our defense has been competent. Burns is frequently just missing huge plays. Excited to see if YGM can continue to progress and flash the ability to anchor the opposite end once he heals up. Same goes for Brown’s development. Barring injury, Burns will have elite numbers sooner than later.

Hurney nails first round pick again.

Yeah he's got some of the best bend I've ever seen. If he could just hone it in a bit or if the other guys on the line improve he's going to be a monster

Brian Burns for Panthers best player on the team. He's the only one at the ELITE level right now. Right?

Besides CMC? Absolutely. He's our best player on defense, and will be for years to come. I'm so excited for our defensive line.

Anyone got an update on YGM?

Do we credit Hurney?
