Newest Panthers linebacker in need of an introduction

Now if you're wondering when Jason Williams put down a basketball and picked up a football, that's understandable.

There are three NBA-related J. Williams of various types - the former Duke player and current TV announcer Jay Williams, whose career was derailed in a motorcycle accident; heavily tattooed Orlando Magic point guard Jason Williams, who is somehow still in the league; and former NBA big man Jayson Williams, who pleaded guilty to assault in the shooting death of a limo driver earlier this year and is now serving a minimum of 18 months in prison.

The Panthers' Jason Williams, though, isn't really into basketball. At only 6-foot-1, that's probably a good thing.

Fowler is without a doubt the worst Panthers writer out there. Why spend three paragraphs talking about people in the NBA just because they share what I'm sure is a very common name?

I'm going to show my ignorance -- when they kept saying Jason Williams, I thought they were talking about Jamar Williams, who I now remember is on IR.

Me too. I was excited, because I really wanted Jamar to get a chance with us. Oh well. I hope this Jason Williams guy is the real deal and sticks with us.

    • his height, size and arm will forever cause problems and limitations...that is what it is.  I think to a degree, the law of averages is just coming into play a bit with him.  So as he plays more and more, you just flat out get the decent days mixed in too.  Which is just going to happen. 
    • Good point. He's definitely better in 10-15 yards. I think that's his biggest improvement. But he wasn't 3-10 +15, he was 3-7, with at least one drop (minor but still). And with multiple passes at 14 yards completed. This passing chart doesn't look like at By one, lol. He threw more "deep" passes than Mahomes (NOT comparing him to Mahomes in a skill way lol), or at least more beyind 10 yards.
    • Karlaftis and Danna have been pretty inconsistent so teams have been doubling Jones and able to contain their pass rush.   But the good thing is that yesterday, we schemed well against Steve Spags Defense, Canales married the surrounding personnel with his QB through play designs within his comfort zone and was able to get downfield at will.  He was able to execute higher difficulty throws and look a lot more comfortable.  It tells me that Canales has a good system in mind, and had an edge gameplanning wise against Spagnuolo - which is nice to see.  It's a bit to see-saw at times with either going way too pass heavy or way too run heavy, but I think he's finding out what works.  It takes time to have it come together, and sure, I could see regression happen against a better front-7, but this was good for the entire system gelling.
