Happy #Panthers game day to all that celebrate!

I’ve got the good guys coming out of this one against the #Cowboys with a 26-23 win.

Dallas is dealing with significant injury issues and Carolina has shown real improvement as of late. Time to take care of business 🤝

I think the #Panthers could find some success today against the Buccaneers defense. The Carolina defense, on the other hand, will face an efficient and dangerous Tampa Bay offense.

Here are a few keys from this week’s Panthers On Tap episode. #KeepPounding

Short week before 🦃 football action kicks back off, so let’s open up the submissions for the Cat Crave mailbag 📬

Shoot over any and all of your #Panthers questions that may have formed after that battle with the two-time defending champion Chiefs.

We took a loss today, but the #Panthers played football in a manner I’m proud to be a fan of today.

Outside of the game, getting to spend time with people that create and care about this team - an absolute pleasure and privilege.

I dove into the mailbag for a Saturday edition.

Want to see the #Panthers running back room compared to your home lawn care? Look at Evero’s future in Carolina? How about QB plans?

I’ve got you covered.

It’s not me advocating for the #Panthers to go the Danny Dimes route, but it wouldn’t shock me to learn Canales & Co. could view a vet min. contract and former first-round talent (who has strung together positive NFL stretches tbh) as an intriguing veteran option IF they’re out on Bryce Young 🫣
FWIW: The #Giants didn't officially move on from Daniel Jones yesterday. It's expected that he'll be placed on waivers today, eligible to be claimed ($11,833,333) through Monday.

Once he clears waivers, Jones will be eligible to sign elsewhere, likely for a minimum $375,000.

My first draft profile for Panthers Wire is live!

Travis Hunter is a rare prospect who *could* be the NFL’s version of Shohei Ohtani.

Here’s what I had to say about how he could fit with the #Panthers:

Very excited that #Panthers rookie RB Jonathon Brooks will be making his debut this Sunday.

Tough opponent, facing the Chiefs who give up the third-fewest yards rushing per game, but it’s a great experience for the young fella.

Behind this OL and tandem with Chuba - the future sky is the limit 🔥

I know no one asked for it, but here’s a D.J. Wonnum thread 🧵 from the #Panthers Week 10 win in Germany.

Collision vs. pulling RT and bend underneath to generate pressure on Jones. (PBU by Horn for added effects).
November 18, 2024 at 6:45 PM
Was interesting to hear Dave Canales say that part of Bryce being aggressive - something he pointed out being pleased with in the #Panthers Germany win - is on him (Canales) to give him more opportunities to play that way.

Just gotta stay with that mentality - don’t clam up.
