Turry 755 Posted July 30, 2011 Citing a league source, the Charlotte Observer reports that the Panthers are interested in trading for Asante Samuel.The connection is obvious because Sean McDermott, new Panthers defensive coordinator, held the same role in Philly last year. McDermott has been collecting former Eagles, including LB Omar Gaither and S Sean Considine. If any team can take on Samuel's large base salaries and cap numbers, it's the Panthers, even after they re-signed so many of their pending free agents. Carolina also has a need at the position after losing Richard Marshall. Related: Panthers Source: Charlotte Observer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwareDWare94 723 Posted July 31, 2011 The Panthers are turning into a dark horse team this year. If either Clausen or Newton can at least play competently, they're going to win some games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thanatos 2,847 Posted August 9, 2011 The Panthers are turning into a dark horse team this year. If either Clausen or Newton can at least play competently, they're going to win some games. I think Clausen blew his shot. Newton is going to start in game 1, in my opinion. Going against Arizona will be a nice start, and we certainly don't want his first game to be against Green Bay.
