Chemistry 101
2008-07-02 15:36:54
As the Panthers begin training camp July 27, much of the team’s focus is going to be on learning plays, competing for starting jobs, and getting used to being knocked around, but training camp also serves another fundamental purpose for every football team: building chemistry.
Whether it is Jake Delhomme getting to know his receivers better [...]

2008-07-01 06:07:34
When you look at Tyler Brayton from a far and on paper you see a guy whos biggest play as a Raider was kneeing Tight End Jeremy Stevens in the groin. A guy who hasn’t gotten a sack in the past 3 years, and a guy who has virtually fallen off, or really never [...]

Bobcat’s Post-Draft Clean Up… I Mean Wrap Up
2008-06-29 07:02:12
For a player, draft night is the night when your emotions are either at an all-time high or an all-time low. For Raymond Felton I’ll assume that he chose the latter. Maybe not you say, maybe Ray is up to the task, maybe he wants to fend off the young gun that wants to come [...]

The Scoop on Peppers
2008-06-28 13:24:12
Julius Peppers
is one of the big question marks on the minds of many Panthers’ fans. Many rumors of illness and lack of motivation have surrounded this twenty eight year old defensive end, but no one knows the true reason for his mediocre 2007 season. Peppers has been with the Carolina Panthers for seven years [...]

The Word On Wide Receivers
2008-06-28 06:24:07
This past season, the Carolina Panthers only had one established wide receiver. Who other than Steve Smith. Having only one receiver made the passing game very hard for Carolina because most teams would constantly double or even triple team Smith. The Panthers only had a few more options that included rookie, Dwayne Jarrett, Keary Colbert, [...]

Has the NFL Really Become the No Fun League?
2008-07-09 17:51:10
For some seasons now, it seems that the NFL has done nothing but continually restrict the actions of the players on the football field, whether it be banning spiking the football, to using the football as a prop in end zone celebrations. And suppose it’s one thing to try and control some of the players [...]

New Year, New Defense
2008-07-31 22:43:45
With all of the free agent acquisitions, draft selections, and line shuffling, the Carolina Panther’s offense has somewhat overshadowed the defense during this first week of training camp. Yes, Jonathan Stewart and Jeff Otah have looked good, if not great, but so have a number of the Panthers defensive players, such as Julius Peppers, [...]
