The Panthers have money, and yes Jerry Richardson manages to hang on after Heart Replacement surgery. They've had a lot of upheavel in the front office and his kids actually left. The talk around here was that the organization thinks there's going to be a lock out. The thing is, there's movement to avoiding that.
None-the-less . . . the Panthers were in dire need of a good 2nd WR to take the pressure off of Smith, they did nothing. The Panthers have a good enough defense, a good enough OL, and good enough RB's to be a playoff team if they had decent QB play and another WR threat. I suppose the other issue is that they have Marty Jr. as a coach.
And yes . . . while the Chiefs may have a young team, they still have a long, long, way to go and as of now Cassel isn't going to be taking them anywhere all that exciting. Hopefully the chiefs can make the playoffs.
But really, a good team blows the Browns off the field yesterday.
