Panthers focused on improving physicality of their defense

1 week ago | catscratchreader.com | Walker Clement

With the first week of organized team activities (OTAs) in the books, coaches are heaping praise on every step of their plan to build a competitive Carolina Panthers team for the 2025 season. We are firmly in the regularly scheduled "X player is in the best shape of his life" portion of the off season. For all the coach and agent speak that is going to flood the NFL news cycle over the coming months, there is plenty that we can read between the lines if we pay attention.

Which rookie will have the biggest impact on the defense?

1 week ago | catscratchreader.com | Walker Clement

Eyes are split in the Carolinas this offseason, as continued improvement from quarterback Bryce Young and a nowhere-to-go-but-up attitude towards the defense vie for attention as the likeliest reason the Carolina Panthers could make a competitive leap forwards in 2025. This week we're going to focus on the defense. The Panthers' 2025 draft class included four defensive players, edges Nic Scourton and Princely Umanmielen, safety Lathan Ransom, and defensive tackle Cam Jackson.
Fans are, unsurprisingly, ready to start the season

Fans of the Carolina Panthers are ready for football to start in Charlotte, per last week's Panthers Reacts survey. We asked y'all which of four games you were most looking forward to this season. The answer was mildly mixed, but a strong plurality of y'all are more than ready for the Panthers Week 3 home opener vs the Atlanta Falcons.

Memorial Day Open Thread

The last Monday of May, less commonly remembered as Military Appreciation Month, is Memorial Day. While many people view it as simply a three-day weekend that kicks off summer it is more properly observed as a day of remembrance and honor for members of the American armed forces who died while serving. This is not a football holiday but we are a community of football fans who are bound by more than just this sport.

Panthers shuffle wide receivers, including fan favorite

Muhammad, the son of former Panther great Muhsin "Moose" Muhammad II, was an intriguing prospect out of Texas A&M. He had relatively small production in college but flashed traits and a work ethic that had coaches both in college and with the Panthers optimistic about his pro prospects. He appears to have suffered an unspecified injury during voluntary team workouts.
Let's get hyped for the 2025 schedule

2 weeks ago | catscratchreader.com | Walker Clement

The regular season schedule for the Carolina Panthers was released last week and has given fans a lot to chew over before the season opens on September 7th. That opener is going to be huge in a lot of ways, but I don't consider it to be the most exciting game on the Panthers schedule. There are too many questions about Bryce Young's development, the new talent on defense, and Dave Canales' second year for the season opener to be anything other than nerve-wracking for me.
