Thomas Keiser was tied for the lead for sacks in the preseason with Quinton Coples?

Congrats @ThomasKeiser for being the defensive sack leader in the NFL preseason games. Great work! @Panthers http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/stats

I know Hurney mentioned Frank Alexander as possibly being our 3rd end last night, but I think Kesier has to get some serious consideration. Our top 5 DEs may be the best group in the league (CJ, Hardy, Applewhite, Keiser, Alexander) as far as depth, behind NYG.

I didn't know that, but I sure saw him during the games....

hope he can do it on sundays.

Not taking anything away from our DE's, but the Giants have a pretty damn good stable of DE's themselves.

Yeah, I put that in probably while you were replying, lol.

Kieser is the type guy who makes a football team good.

Why need more of those guys. Nothing flashy....but a legit football player that makes good depth at a postion bc he can actually play.

A white Al Wallace. Now all we need to do is find a starter for him to backup across from CJ

[davos]

I'm excited to see what he can do this season. His play has definitely warranted him more playing time

[Panthers4lyfe]

i legitametly think keiser will have 8 or 9 sacks this year

Warning: Debbie Downer Alert.

I don't think anyone outside Carolina is going to buy the Panthers as the #1 DE corp in the NFL.

We have Charles Johnson. That's it.

We have a few hustle guys like Alexander and Keiser. But we don't stack up to other DLines.

No, based on talent, NYG is the clear cut #1. But depth AND talent 1-5, I think we give them a run for their money.

People are down on Hardy, but let's see what he does this year. If he isn't showing any progress through the midpoint of the season, then we'll need to address that then, but if he plays up to his potential, people will have to take notice this season.

He sure as hell puts for the effort.

Chia seed sales now on the rise.

Keiser is one of my fav guys on the D... he's under the radar, but obviously a hard worker, has a high motor and has some real football talent.

Fear the chia!

Debbie Downer Alert #2.

I don't think anyone outside of Carolina is going to buy Carolina as the 2nd best DE corp outside of the NYG right now...

Philly for example....there starting 2 DEs had 29 sacks last year between the 2 of them. Minny had 30 between their 2 starters. There are several the ahead of Carolina in terms of DE depth. Those teams would also suggest they have guys who haven't maxed out their potential yet.

[Dpantherman]

Philly and the Giants have A LOT more help inside. If the Panthers had even an average crop of DTs that could push the middle our DEs would thrive. The talent on the outside is there.
