Drafting a Cornerstone
I am a proponent of the idea that, with a defense, the Carolina Panthers could have made the playoffs this year. Though this is true, we still saw great improvement to our defensive line as backups Frank Kearse and Andre Neblett performed admirably in place of rookie starters Terrell McClain and Sione Fua. Despite the loss of Jon Beason and Thomas Davis, our linebacking corps also...

Offseason Taks for the Carolina Panthers
Well now that the season is over it’s time for Carolina to shift their focus to offseason needs. The Panthers are coming off of a much-improved 6-10 season, which saw them play extremely competitive and take the lead in 14 of 16 games. Through that process it was clear the Panthers had found their franchise quarterback in rookie Cam Newton, but there are still other missing pieces...

Joe Paterno: A Legacy Through the Eyes of an Outsider
Looking at the man, you would never guess he is a football genius. He’s wearing glasses the size of bricks, and looks like he should be working in a science lab, not leading a team onto the football field. With a bit of black still left on his head, you would never guess this man was 85 years old. He’s small, and he wears his pants rolled up so you can see the whites...

Success with Honor: Joe Paterno, through the eyes of a Penn Stater
Joe and son Jay Paterno
I am experiencing difficulty writing this piece. Not because I’m in such a saddened state – it is a sad time, yes – but because how does one go about summarizing the life of a legend? I have been tasked in part, but am also willing, to share what this historic event means to so many of us; however, unfortunately, I will never be able to convey...

Carolina Panthers Needs Entering 2012 Offseason
Defense wins games, but the NFL is geared more toward allowing an offense to score, ergo offense wins games. It’s a confusing model at times, given the changes the NFL has undergone in recent years under Commissioner Roger Goodell’s

Evaluating the Carolina Panthers
Now that our season has been over for a while, and I’ve had time to really look at the stats and video, I can evaluate how the Panthers performed.
The main focus of course will be the defense. The squad is a shadow of what it was on day one. The loss of key players, and back-ups, made it near impossible for Carolina to have a fighting chance. Naturally, I evaluate the most...

On The Prowl
Once in a blue moon, one athlete will take their sport by storm, and revolutionize the way it is viewed. I know this is a Panthers blog, but I need to get away from that for a minute or two. Yesterday, Sarah Burke passed away from injuries sustained during a training run in Utah. Sarah Burke was one of those athletes, and pioneered freestyle skiing. She made men rethink the sport...

Defensive Draft Prospects pt. 3
This week I’m focusing on a prospect that just recently won a National Championship with LSU. He also could be a guy that could provide tremendous help to our crippled defensive line. And that guy is Michael Brockers.

Let’s get this out of the way first: There is no award called “Best NFL Rookie Season Ever.” There is no vote. It’s purely a mythical title.

The end of Tebowmania
“All good things must come to an end.”
One of the most overused quotes in the history of quotes yet it is so fitting in describing the end of Tebowmania and the Denver Broncos, well at least if you consider Tebowmania a good thing (I am still uncertain at this point) , as the Patriots absolutely destroyed the ‘white bronco’ last night, winning 45-10.
It was...

Possible Free Agent Acquisitions pt. 2
In this second edition of Possible Free Agent Acquisitions, I’m going to focus on the cornerback position. Other than Chris Gamble the Panthers really don’t have a reliable corner on the roster. There are a bunch of solid DB’s that are going to be on the market this offseason and the Panthers would be wise to take advantage of that.

As things turned out, Anderson only relieved rookie phenom Cam Newton a couple of times in mop-up roles, but Anderson still made crucial contributions that didn’t show up in the gamebook.

Defensive Prospects for Panthers pt. 2
This is the second edition of the five part series I’m doing on potential defensive players the Panthers might select in the upcoming Draft. Last week I started off with cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick from Alabama, and today I’m selecting a teammate of his. But as long as you’re selecting someone from an Alabama defense you really can’t go wrong.

Wild Card Pick ‘Em
Brandon and Eric both mentioned it: “the Panthers’ season may be over, but the NFL season is still going on.” So, like both of those men I’m going to do a pick’em.
Luckily I still have a dog in the hunt. Being from Houston, I do hold a teenie tiny place in my heart for the Texans, and will be cheering for them today. That being said, Eric and Brandon...

Wild-Card Weekend Picks
The Panthers’ season may be over but the NFL season is not. Wild-card weekend is upon us after an entertaining regular season is in the books. For some fans whose teams didn’t make the playoffs the season is over. For myself, I love watching playoff football. The intensity is something that can’t be replicated in a regular season game; it’s win or go home...

Possible Free Agent Acquisitions pt. 1
I’m going to start a series here on Cat Crave on possible free agent acquisitions for the Panthers. After coming off of a 6-10 season, and having the lead in 14 of their 16 games, people in the organization are very optimistic about the future and believe that this team is a couple guys away from being something special. That is why free agency is so important for Carolina this...

Previewing Bucs and Panthers
This Christmas Eve preview between the Carolina Panthers and their hated rivals in Tampa has a different twist. Josh Hill and I teamed up, and we each asked eachother questions about this game.

Captain Munnerlyn on Injured Reserve
Well, it looks like Ron Rivera’s uncertainty over Captain Munnerlyn’s ability to play tomorrow has been vindicated in the worst possible way. The No. 2 corner has been placed on the injured reserve with a hamstring injury that was sustained in last week’s game against the Houston Texans. He was previously suffering from a minor ankle injury that had him listed as...
