After "humbling" second season, Ikem Ekwonu ready to take advantage of a new offense


Recommended Posts

I hope he's humbled and put in the work this off-season because that dude was completely full of himself last preseason. Dude would go out there and look like a damn speed bump and then be over there laughing it up on the sidelines and talking a big game when they'd interview him.

I think the guy has the talent to do the job. Hopefully last year's ass whooping was a needed wakeup call that sustained NFL success isn't easy.

icky was free to stunts, biltzs, and twists last year- same for the whole OL. that's when I gave up on campy, zero improvement form week2week. OL was not listening, then reports of tepper, fittererererrer, tepper wife watching OL drills......I'm out.

Lastly how does this guy think he would coast on his "good" rookie season??? the whole time campy was giving help to him and holding his hands. then he entered season 2 and thought it would repeat??

I got just little more faith in ickys turnaround over young's. He should have gotten benched last season too. 

He must workout, cause you can not be a team that's looking for LT, QB, WR, and edge at the same fuging time.....SOMEONE has to step up!

Prepare thy self. I bet we’ll be looking for two of those three.

It cannot be stated enough how bad Frank was with O-Line performance. It’s one of the reasons he got Matt Ryan killed his last season with an incredible amount of talent across the line, and the next season they look light years better, with the same crew. He comes here and the line that once looked like the biggest team strength, suddenly could not pick up a stunt and was by far the worst line in the league. I know injuries played a part, but you cannot ignore Franks outdated scheme and the effect it has over the last few years.

I was about to post that he didn’t look humbled last season…. You beat me to it.

It's not like we don’t know there is a panthers .com site. And how to access it. 

How about, they don’t get to post happy Bryce and Icky fluff until Tepper goes a full year without firing the coach? 

Or maybe put all their stuff in that 'only positive thoughts allowed' thread a while back.

He is the real question mark on this OL.  He needs to get stronger and more fundamentally sound very soon.

His problem is more technique than strength.  He gets caught reaching or off balance a lot.  Hes not good in space.   Hes decently solid if he gets his hands on the rusher without being overextended.   All that said his strengths and weaknesses on paper line up the exact opposite for what you want with a wide zone blocking scheme but we will see.

too many smart people in football these days.  The old school try and stop what you know is coming approach just isn't going to work (minus having just an absurd roster where the talent levels are just out of whack).  You got to be innovative on offense.  NFL defenses in this era will feast on the predictable.
