Who's kicking off now that Rhys is gone?

[CAPantherFan]

Sorry I've been out of touch now that draft is done however I don't recall seeing who our kick off person is? Not John Kasay is it??

[brandon_87]

Some guy with the last name carter, forgot his first name its like todd or tom or tim but I doubt he will make the team

superbowl!

[Rhys]

I feel compelled to answer this for some reason...

Yea, its Todd Carter. There's also an Aaron Pettrey on the roster who's listed as a K.

To answer your question seriously, they have a great kicking prospect named Tommy Jone.

Todd Carter sounds like a serial killer I used to know.

[Lt Pinkerton]

I bet this is Kasay's last year, especially if Fox is gone.

Todd Carter will be cut, Aaron Pettrey will kick off, and take over when Kasay retires.

Great idea for a new thread, who should do kickoffs for the Panthers this year. Kasay, Carter, or Pettrey.

Now in all seriousness, I don't see that happening Pettrey is like Kasay he is a good field goal kicker but he does not have the leg to do kickoffs.

We should have just paid Rhys and when Kasay retired let Lloyd take over kickoff duties. He was more than capable of doing kickoffs. During warmups he would be hitting the mark from about 63 yards. Now I know that is without guys trying to block your kicks, but I believe he would have been reliable up to 55 yards.

Some guy who was making smoothies last year... Seriously... Atleast that's the last that I had heard.

Carter's kickoff avg from '08: 63 with 22 touchbacks

Don't understand how Pettrey has the higher average, but Carter dominates the touchbacks. Will be good competition although the touchbacks might give Carter the job.
