Question For You Stadium Regulars


Montsta

Recommended Posts

What Panthers player jersey is most prevalently worn at the stadium? I used to always see a ton of 90's on TV, but I'm sure that's died down to some extent. The only reason I ask is because with all these BS Smitty trade threads, I was just wondering how much money SS singlehandedly puts in JR's pocket with attendance, jersey sales, etc.?

Believe it or not I still see the occasional Peppers and Delhomme jerseys, but by far the most prevalent is #89 with #34 becoming more popular. #52 is probably third on the list right now. The women love #4...

You know I really have noticed alot of women wearing Kasay jerseys. There is still a ton of Peppers and Delhomme Jerseys. I'd say that 89 and 34 are tied for the most popular among current players. Last week I actually saw quite a few Edwards Jerseys which surprised the hell out of me.

So would it be a safe assumption that on an individual player level, Smitty brings in the most revenue for the team? I don't know how jersey sale money alotments go, but from a business side, Smitty seems to be the feature attraction?

Not only does the stadium sell Smitty jerseys, He also has his own clothing line of t-shirts that they sell in the team store..I think its called Eighty-Nine.

It used to be (and still might if Jerrey Jones has not changed it) that all apperal sales for NFL properties went into a fund and all teams recieve an equal share.

    • 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
    • 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.
