NFL Draft 2018: Carolina Panthers 7-round mock
Next 1 of 6 Prev post Use your ← → (arrows) to browse The Carolina Panthers have a strong foundation in place for the franchise. Adding to it via the draft is critical to remain successful. Cam Newton and company had an up and down season. The Panthers were missing star tight end Greg Olsen for most of the season. In the middle of the year they traded top wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin. These two moves opened up the door for other players to get involved. Newton and the offense were able to maintain a level of success despite this. They were bounced from the playoffs by the Saints. A strong draft will be critical to keep pushing towards another Super Bowl birth. This mock draft was done using FanSpeak’s On the Clock prior to the NFL combine. Round 1 – Pick 24 Sam Hubbard, EDGE, Ohio State The Carolina Panthers are one of the oldest teams at the pass rushing spots.

Carolina Panthers free agency 2018: Top 5 targets
Next 1 of 6 Prev post Use your ← → (arrows) to browse After reaching the playoffs in 2017, the Carolina Panthers are hoping to contend for the Super Bowl once more behind a solid roster. The Panthers are an interesting team. They are married to Cam Newton, which gives this franchise a level of unpredictability and instability to go along with big play production and a very high variance in the positive column. They are also in the process of selling the team, so there is much uncertainty at the top of this franchise. The defense is far more structured and stable. The Panthers have a very definitive approach on this side of the ball. However, Carolina blitzed much more in 2017 and played a little more man-to-man coverage. But that was with Steve Wilks as the defensive coordinator and of course Wilks is now the head coach in Arizona. It is probably still safe to say that the Panthers will live on getting pressure with their front four and rely on elite linebacker … [Read more...] about Carolina Panthers free agency 2018: Top 5 targets

Please don’t let David Tepper buy the Carolina Panthers
I would really like it if the Panthers didn’t get bought by a man who displays a giant set of veiny brass testicles and throws breast implants for fun. I’m not much of a hand wringer when it comes to NFL team owners. They’re all terrible, and it would be more surprising if a team owner came along who was demonstrably not terrible. That said, I’d like to restate for the record that my preference would be not to get veiny brass testicle man who throws breast implants at people. David Tepper is a billionaire hedge fund manager, and a minority owner of the Steelers. Recently he’s been called a “strong contender” to buy the Carolina Panthers, who are now up for sale after stalwart Jerry Richardson announced he would sell the team following sexual harassment allegations against him. Tepper is also the owner of a large pair of brass balls — and breast implants, which he likes to throw around. Buried in the fourth page of a 2009 profile of … [Read more...] about Please don’t let David Tepper buy the Carolina Panthers

Bob Donnan-USA TODAY Sports AP Dec 24, 2017 at 7:35p ET CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Few have ever compared Jameis Winston to Dan Marino — until now.

He tied the mark with an 18-yard pass to former college teammate Bobo Wilson, but Tampa Bay lost 22-19 . “It doesn’t really matter if you have those games when you lose,” said Winston, who was 21-for-27 for 367 yards and a touchdown, but three fumbles against Carolina. “I have to say, a bunch of unfortunate things just happen to us. We just have to get better.” More Tampa Bay Buccaneers news AFC rallies in 2nd half, tops NFC in rain-soaked Pro Bowl in … [Read more...] about Carolina Panthers 22, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 19
