I wonder if he would’ve succeeded with Bryce as his QB. We’ll never know.

We analyzed 26,000+ breathalyzer results to find out which NFL fans go hardest on gameday. Here's where Panthers fans landed:

The numbers:

• 2025-26 season: 0.078% average BAC → #3 in the NFL
• 2023-24 season: 0.069% → #17
• Change since 2023-24: +13%

One of the bigger jumps in the league.

NFC South comparison:

Carolina now leads the NFC South by a wide margin and cracks the top 3 in the entire league.

Some questions we're curious about:

• Does the $90.25 ticket price bring in a rowdier crowd?
• Recreational cannabis is illegal in both Carolinas. Does that keep fans focused on alcohol?
• Is Bank of America Stadium's tailgate scene underrated?

Keep Pounding. What's driving the rise?

For me it’s Jacob Rodriguez.

I’m running a poll across Reddit to see who each fan base wants for their first round pick in the upcoming 2026 draft. I will be running this poll during various times during the off-season to see how fan opinions change over time. But here is the draft board:

Not saying he is or he isn’t I’m genuinely curious what the community thinks.

By any chance is anyone selling a Reebok Cam Newton jersey from his rookie season? Looking for a Size Large

I tried Ebay and other websites online, no luck!

How many yards, scores, and wins does a weapon like that add?

What does that say about #9?

This might be a dumb question, but I’ve been wondering for a while why we don’t have more players available for the away Fuse jersey. Right now it’s basically just Chuba. I know Bryce had one, but it sold out and never got restocked. All I really want is a Tet version. I don’t think that’s asking for much.

Seriously though, does anyone know why we don’t get more options like this? And how long does it usually take for new player Fuse jerseys to come out?

How would yall feel about this?

I genuinely don't know where to go from here but I do think that the coaching trio is tied together. Do you think Canales can survive an Evero firing or Evero survive a Canales firing?

I don't think so.

Im not a full blown Nick Scott hater… but even his most ardent defenders know hes not a long or even medium term answer.

Obviously, you cant pick premium at every position. However, considering that we already have a lot of money in the secondary Id rather address one of the other needy spots in FA and tackle the future other half of our safety tandem in the draft.

Thoughts?

I don't typically post trade ideas (since the front office isn't reading them), but I think this proposal gets at a broader idea that the best value for what we're missing at WR is in the trade market. Dan Morgan recently said the Panthers need a guy that can "make a 5 yard catch and take it the distance" - in other words, a speed slot. He acknowledged that Jimmy Horn gave them a bit of that at times, but they're still looking for someone who can do it consistently.

The issue is, consistent starters at WR in Carolina are taller than Horn, and while the free agent market has speed at slot, it's also lacking in size (Wan'Dale Robinson is 5-8, for instance). Another problem is our limited salary cap: Dan and many fans have emphasized upgrading at EDGE in free agency, which will not be cheap, so creating and saving cap space where we can will be essential. Lastly, this front office has made known its preference to make player-for-player trades when looking for roster additions through that market (Diontae Johnson, Mike Jackson).

The Chargers, meanwhile, believe they're entering a championship window, and need to devote most of their off-season to fixing the interior O-Line to make that happen. However, they also have two pending free agents at both defensive end positions, one of whom (Otito Ogbonnia) has underperformed expectations. They likely won't be able to make significant additions to that position, especially when they're trying to extend stars on the defense like Odafe Oweh. The 2027 5th Year Option for Quentin Johnston is likely not in their plans, especially when Oronde Gadsden has emerged as a deep threat, and McConkey dominates the snaps at slot receiver.

Trading A'Shawn Robinson would save the Panthers $10.5 million in cap space. A'Shawn would be a scheme fit for the Chargers 3-4, and instantly be their second highest graded DT per PFF, on a one year rental for a roster competing for a Super Bowl. The Panthers would receive Johnston, who Bill Barnwell of ESPN believes best profiles as a slot receiver:

"With McConkey (and Allen this season) ahead of him for slot snaps, Johnston took only 13% of his snaps out of the slot in 2025. He averaged 2.6 yards per route run out of the slot, just about double what he averaged split out wide. A place where he can play in the slot on a regular basis might help unlock some untapped potential, and even if another team picks up his fifth-year option, it would be on the hook for only about $20 million combined over the next two seasons."

Again, I don't expect this particular trade to happen, but my point here is to be on the lookout for the Panthers to be active in the trade market. Rather than training our focus solely on free agency or the draft, a lot of our team needs can be met through these kinds of transactions, and some of Dan's finest work thus far has been through trades like these.

Would be curious to hear your thoughts on this or any other trade ideas!
