Keep Pounding!
The combine has been underway for a few days now, and the workouts have taken everyone’s attention. But prior to all that, the combine served as a gathering place for NFL decision makers and the media to interact with one another and get some nice juicy headlines for the offseason. Dave Canales, Dan Morgan, Brad […]
Greetings, Panthers fans. Welcome to the weekend. Feel free to use this thread to chat about (almost) anything you want: video games, food, movies, non-football sports, you name it. As long as it’s allowed by the site’s ToS, it’s fair game here. You know the drill. This is now an open thread
The Carolina Panthers have spent the last few seasons turning around the narrative of the on-field product, culminating in an unlikely NFC South division crown this past season. Off the field, the players have not seen as much growth. While the Panthers overall rank rose from 25th overall in 2025 to 23rd overall in 2026, […]

Now that the dust has settled on the 2025 NFL season, it’s time to take a look at the results of those weekly confidence surveys we had y’all take throughout the season. It was a season of ups and downs across the league and at home for the Carolina Panthers and that is well reflected […]
Football is back. After a hefty two week break, the NFL is headlining the sports world once again. Teams are congregating in Indianapolis to watch a bunch of college kids run and jump and go through drills to add another data point to their scouting profiles. Every year, we talk about how film trumps measurables, […]
The final two entries of the Rising Stars of the Carolina Panthers series will be dedicated to the players on each side of the football who, while compelling in their own way, have not quite done enough to qualify as a ‘star’. Those who have had an eyebrow-raising game or two, but for one reason […]
With the Panthers offseason underway and free agency just a few weeks away, let’s take a look at some of the areas on the roster that Dan Morgan and Brandt Tillis have to address this offseason. Instead of looking at the entire roster, we are going to break the list down by position group. For […]
Hello CSR! Welcome to Ask Brian, part one of your weekly Panthers fan mailbag for everyone! We’re inching closer to the fun parts of the off-season, the free agency period and then the 2026 NFL Draft! The Panthers have a lot of needs to address in order to push for the playoffs once again in […]
Now that we are past the Super Bowl, we look ahead toward the 2026 NFL Draft. This weekly series will take a closer look at some of the prospects the Carolina Panthers could select in the 2026 iteration of the Draft. In this series, we’ll only be looking at prospects the Panthers could seriously consider. […]
We’re in that slow period between the Super Bowl and the new league year where it sometimes feels like the NFL world has ground to a halt. And that makes it a perfect time to ask: Where in the world are our Cat Scratch Reader readers? We don’t want or need your address or any […]

On Thursday, we looked at some players that are candidates for release from their current teams that could be good targets for the Carolina Panthers. Admittedly, the pickings were a little slim on the offensive side of the ball. However, there are some spicier options on the defensive end that are more likely to be […]
Hello CSR! Welcome to Brian Answers, part two of your weekly Panthers fan mailbag for everyone! The questions from fans this week took a bit of a back seat, which is understandable given we are in the dead period between the Super Bowl and Free Agency/the Combine. So, I answered some questions, and highlighted some […]
The Carolina Panthers enter the 2026 offseason with plenty of cap space and pretty easy means to make even more. They have a quarterback on a rookie contract, which is prime time to spend a bunch of money on a supporting cast. Other teams are not so fortunate. There are going to be a lot […]
While this series is titled Rising Stars, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan has a strong argument to remove the word ‘rising’, because he already might be a star. It’s hefty praise to heap onto a rookie, but in the era of the NFL where first year players are thrown into the starting line-up in […]

Every year, the NFL Draft is packed with amazing prospects who have incredible abilities and athletic traits most people could only dream of. Those prospects are often celebrated for their achievements leading up to the Draft, and deservedly so. This post will not celebrate those attributes. Instead, we’ll celebrate something most of these athletes have […]

Over the past several weeks we’ve been assessing Dan Morgan’s performance in his second year on the job as general manager of the Carolina Panthers. We’ve reviewed his trades, scrutinized his free agent additions, and evaluated his 2025 draft performance, including Rounds 1-3 and Rounds 4-7. It’s now time to roll everything up and give him a final […]
The Panthers hired Dan Morgan as president of football operations and general manager on January 22, 2024. Morgan is a Panthers “lifer” after spending his seven-year NFL career in Charlotte from 2001 through 2007 then spending years in the Panthers front office. Let’s take a look back on Morgan’s second season as GM. We’ve previously […]
