Potential 1st Round Draft Picks for Carolina Panthers

Potential 1st Round Draft Picks for Carolina Panthers

The lack of wide receiver depth and talent haunted the Carolina Panthers in 2017.  In the playoffs, Carolina started Russell Shepard, Devin Funchess and Moze Frazier.  Yikes.  With Norv Turner running the offense next season, look for Carolina to give him the tools to be successful.

Time To Put a CAP in The Panthers

Time To Put a CAP in The Panthers

Carolina Panthers football has always been about two things:  Running the ball and about a ferocious defense.  If the Panthers are to make a deep run in the playoffs this year, they have to have both of these going for them.  The defense is playing well and its success depends on overall health and specifically on Luke Kuechley’s return.  So this article is going to take a look at the run game.

So Smitty Picks The 49ers: Here's What Panther Nation Responded

Agent 89, now an analyst on the NFL Network, came on and predicted the 49ers to upset the Panthers today.  To you, Smitty, I say IceUpSon.  Here’s why I see good things coming today.

Most NFL games come down to QB play.  I see Cam as ready and a full go and to play well. Folks worry about his lack of playing time in the pre-season.  All I have to say to that is 2011 opener where Terry Bradshaw opened the season by saying he was shocked the Panthers took Cam #1 overall and he looked for him to struggle mightily. Then at half time, good ol’ Terry says “I love Cam Newton.”  And Cam went on to a 400+ yard game.  I look for a similar game today.

I do see good things happening today as I believe the Panthers’ offensive line has the ability to be a top 5 unit this season.  Should they stay healthy, Cam and company should return to the swag-waving crew that the folks in Carolina love and opponents fear.  

Two other players I also anticipate big days from are Christian McCaffrey and Julius Peppers. These are two players that add a little somethingsomething to the Panthers and I believe will be keys to the Panthers’ success in 2017.  Here are some of Panther Nations’ tweets feeling the swagger heading into San Francisco:

So, to you, Agent 89:  We love you, but Ice Up Son!
