I don't like Julius Jones too much either.

What we need is for the o-line to function so that Deangelo can hit holes more effectively. I hate seeing his talent going underutilised.

And all this talk of WR's is less relevant. We fix the running game - O-line + Deangelo getting 3 to 4 yards per carry, and the passing game will take care of itself.

Maybe it didn't have to be julius jones, but they definitely need a RBBC. I bet deangelo gets hurt if he is the lone back.

3/5/2008 9:26:40 AM

as long as we got Nick Goings, it's gonna be fine.

3/5/2008 9:27:41 AM

we need new uniforms.

3/5/2008 10:54:59 AM

Nah I like ours better than most

We'd probably fuck up new ones and be two-toned like Buffalo

3/5/2008 10:59:15 AM

the blues and the whites suck, but the black unis look GREAT

3/5/2008 12:40:38 PM

i love the blues and whites. Our uniform doesn't need any change. I love the panther logo also.

3/5/2008 1:06:37 PM

they started off with the black jerseys and the white jerseys...when did they add the blue jerseys, about 5 years ago? i think maybe in another 5-6 years we can add a 2nd alternate jersey...maybe a grey or silver (no homo)

3/5/2008 1:26:58 PM

Nah I've seen the fake sillver jersey's and thats just not a good dominant color

We're kind of capped out with jerseys because we only have 3 main colors we can work with

Unless we introduce a new color in the next few year, but I can't imagine something that would work with our current scheme without completely altering it

3/5/2008 1:28:48 PM

if a team known as "Big Blue" can wear red jerseys, anything is possible

3/5/2008 1:33:00 PM

yeah i seem to remember some red jerseys for some reason....its fucking with my head

3/5/2008 1:34:29 PM

dnl maybe you're thinking of the Black Panthers jersey

3/5/2008 1:36:24 PM

We can always rock these if we keep playing like pussies

3/5/2008 1:39:34 PM

lol


we sign anyone today?

3/5/2008 6:54:03 PM

i like the white jerseys the best

lolololololol

3/6/2008 10:32:43 PM

^haha, that's awesome

3/7/2008 7:17:38 AM

^^he SEVERELY needed those after coming back from two years off

3/7/2008 8:38:18 AM

the panthers had similar stipulations in his contract.

3/7/2008 8:51:27 AM

OK, maybe the entire contract needed to be weight-stipulated

3/7/2008 8:52:15 AM

Panthers agreed to terms on a 3-year contract with free agent LB Landon Johnson.

Johnson has led the Bengals in tackles 3 of the 4 years he was in the league. Quality signing.

3/7/2008 9:57:31 AM

Sweet. If all goes well, we'll have one of the best LB cores in the league....that and CB are probably our only really strong areas. Imo, we do still need another good DT to eat up space so the LB's can have lanes to work with.

3/7/2008 10:13:38 AM

Coo, don't know much about this guy but he cant be worse than Nile Diggs

You know Davis and Beason are gonna be solid...this guy could make our unit elite

3/7/2008 10:16:57 AM

yea, good signing at LB. I like what the Panthers did this offseason, spending wisely. Now, we need DT depth and OL depth. They should give Barry Sims a 2 year contract and be done with it.

3/7/2008 10:21:16 AM

Landon Johnson in Charlotte...

I wonder if when he gets a sack the whole BofA Stadium will be like "Llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll J" on some old Larry Johnson shit

3/7/2008 11:11:42 AM

I heard Morgan signed with Saints

It would be fitting if he waits until their game in Charlotte for his annual season ending concussion

3/7/2008 11:18:51 AM

well we better play them in one of the first few games then

3/7/2008 11:37:35 AM

Nevermind...

i wish we had at least one really good saftey and hope peppers and that kamilatu or whatever the fuck can do well with the 2 new people we get...does our oline suck w00t

3/7/2008 2:20:44 PM

harris is no slouch @ S,

but kemo sux...shoulda kept moorhead and dropped him.

Quote :

"We've received several e-mails over the past couple of days regarding rumors that the Carolina Panthers are poised to trade defensive end Julius Peppers. And so we've actually engaged in a little "real" journalism -- and in some of our good, old-fashioned rumor mongering. There are rumors in league circles that the Panthers are quietly shopping Peppers. He has a big cap number in 2007, and there's a school of thought that the Panthers aren't willing to pay him what it would take to keep him over the long haul, especially since the price tag could go up if/when the Ravens sign Terrell Suggs to a long-term deal. But it takes two to do the trade tango, and we've yet to confirm that any of the other 31 teams have been approached about acquiring the No. 2 overall pick in the 2002 draft. Peppers had only 2.5 sacks last season, down from 13.0 the year before. He had been expected to be in line for a Dwight Freeney-style deal with $30 million guaranteed and a $12 million per year average. Agent Carl Carey tells PFT that he and Peppers have heard the rumors, but that they have no merit. "We fully expect that Julius Peppers will be a Carolina Panther this football season," Carey said. At this point, there's no concrete reason to believe otherwise. But unless and until Peppers signs a new contract with the Panthers, the trade whispers will continue."

I'm for it if it happens

3/7/2008 4:25:38 PM

you dont see him getting better?

i dont think he is worth the money he wants honestly

3/7/2008 4:30:57 PM

he got syphills from a guy in europe




oh yeah didnt I mention it?

3/7/2008 4:44:54 PM

^^^ i doubt that the panthers would really be trying to shop peppers around for a trade unless he has some permanent condition that could explain his down year last year. maybe he has aids .

[Edited on March 7, 2008 at 4:50 PM. Reason : ^ or syphilis ]

3/7/2008 4:49:41 PM

I don't see the panthers getting what they want for him either, with his recent shitty year....wonder what other teams would be willing to offer?

3/7/2008 4:50:33 PM

good signing. every bengals message board ive seen is pretty pissed they let him go

led the team in tackles last 3 out of 4 years, versatile, and a good guy in the locker room

finally a free agent signing who might actually make a difference next year

3/7/2008 4:54:32 PM

I think he was the only bengal besides carson palmer who hasn't been arrested in the past few years

3/7/2008 5:01:45 PM

per rotoworld

Panthers signed RB LaBrandon Toefield to a one-year contract.

If this is the best they can do, DeAngelo Williams will have an easy road to 300+ touches. Toefield, 27, was rarely used in Jacksonville and hasn't averaged over 4.0 YPC in his career. At 5'11/232, he has some short-yardage ability, but won't be a big threat to Williams' carries otherwise. We suspect Carolina will draft another back, though it probably won't happen early.

3/7/2008 6:11:04 PM

thank god...i do not want a running back before the 3rd round

3/7/2008 6:14:55 PM

me and Slave Famous used to rag on the labrandon name all the time

3/7/2008 6:16:14 PM

i never heard of him before now

3/7/2008 7:24:05 PM

For what it's worth, he started over Dominick Davis at LSU.

I remember watching him during a preseason game and being mildly impressed, so we'll see. He definitely runs hard.

3/7/2008 7:32:59 PM

there's a buzz that shaun alexander will be cut...maybe the panthers will grab him?

3/8/2008 4:46:16 PM

no more washed up running backs please

3/8/2008 4:52:40 PM

haha depending on how much hes wanting i'd be all for that one...if we got 2 ok years out of him i'd be satisfied

3/8/2008 6:27:55 PM

word on the street is shaun alexander worked out for the panthers today...pass it on

3/9/2008 8:42:23 PM

who do you talk to on the street

3/9/2008 9:40:51 PM

i swear i get you two mixed up sometimes. must be that whole "d" thing

3/9/2008 10:03:47 PM

nah dweedle is like 75 percent quality believable type posts...i'm like 40%

3/9/2008 10:06:33 PM

Alexander might be old but could still be a 5-10 carry a game guy to spell DeAngelo.
