krub, here is one way to deal with the tards- pink them(all pink letters/words). that single simple color changed a outlaw forum ive gone to for years.

also add a tard bin and just move threads to there own forum. that works as well.

pink + tard bin= problems solved.

joe rogan ftw

I haven't been on here long, or even read the boards every day, but I've seen people mention how the 3-4 is brought up all the time. I realize that it doesn't fit what Fox does, but I really think that if he is still around after this year he should consider it.

Just think about our lineup, we have multiple guys playing out of position and have some great young guys who could probably shine in that defense. Imagine this front seven 2-3 years from now.

DE: Hardy

NT: FA/1st round draft pick

DE: Johnson

OLB: Norwood

MLB: Beason

MLB: Connor

OLB: Brown

How could that front 7 not give us one of the top sack/pressure defenses in the entire league?

Norwood and Brown could both be better suited as OLB in a 3-4 and if you have one of them or both rushing on every down, the offense is going to have trouble defending that not knowing where it could be coming from.

Brown could definitely be a Ware type player, and I could see Norwood as maybe a Woodley where he's a little better at dropping into coverage. Then Beason and Connor both get to play at their natural positions in the middle. All we would need to go out and get is a huge NT in the first round next year and that defense would be all set.

I'm not a 3-4 guy, but just with the players on our roster I could see how that could possibly work. I've actually thought about it myself a few times. I really don't feel like Norwood and Brown have the size to play on the line, but both could be great pass rushers in a scheme like that. The only problem after that would be their coverage skills and having the size on the dline to keep blockers off of them.

      Passing yards per game leaders

      I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

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

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      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.
