The Carolina Panthers didn’t do a ton to bolster their roster on the open market. Nonetheless, this team is slightly better off—if anything—after about three weeks of 2013 NFL Free Agency and looks to be in better shape than at least a dozen teams around the league. Let’s examine the Panthers’ updated team needs heading into the 2013 NFL Draft (in no particular...

Panthers next search for an offensive coordinator
So much stability on offense for the Carolina Panthers.
Cam Newton and the Panthers offense are once again in limbo following the departure of offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski.

Another team that has been better than their record all season, the Panthers showed it last week, beating the Falcons, who they almost knocked off earlier this season. Week 16, they host the Raiders, which should get them their 5th win of the season, but I don’t know...
Panthers empathize with Chiefs after tragedy
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- For what it's worth, the Carolina Panthers made a point to tip their collective taps, as much as caps can be tipped when there's blood on the ground and tears in the air. Pro football is a fraternity, after all, brothers decapitating brothers.
"They didn't look like a 1-10 team to me," Panthers tackle Jordan Gross offered after Carolina...
Panthers must respond well to loss
The last thing true competitors want after suffering a taste-altering defeat is to have to sit and stew about it for an extended period of time. Most want to get right back out there and eliminate the residue of the pain.
The Carolina Panthers had no option following their 36-7 home loss to the New York Giants last Thursday that was actually worse than the score indicates.
Thats...

Offensive Line Fantasy Value of the Carolina Panthers
Today I am covering the Offensive Line Fantasy Value of the Carolina Panthers. This unit is part of what enabled Cam Newton to rush for 700+ yards, to throw for over 4000 yards and to score 14 TD’s on his own. Notice I said part. He has above average athletic ability, so some of that has to factor into his success as well. O.K, on to the Offensive Line…..Left Tackle is...

2011 Carolina Pantehrs news and notes
I think the Carolina Panthers took a big step in 2011. In 2010 they were a disaster at 2-14. They finished 2011 6-10, and may have found their QB of the future. Their new head coach has them headed in the right direction and now they need to add to the talent level of both the offense and the defense. I think the defense needs the most work at this point, but there is something...

If Jordan Gross doesn’t play…
With Jordan Gross listed as questionable due to an ankle injury, the cynical worst-case thoughts are spinning inside of me. What if our best offensive lineman isn’t good to go on Sunday against a formidable foe? Gross, is a tough guy and will most likely play, but the impact that the team- mainly Cam Newton- will feel if he does not play Sunday will be huge. If Gross doesn’t...
