The Panthers place DT Tank Tyler on IR

The injuries just keep piling on. This latest one hurts the depth of the Carolina Panthers D-line yet again, but with Hollis Thomas and Damione Lewis entrenched as starters with one decent backup in Nick Hayden, it won't hurt our run defense as much as you think.

It's a shame though, the Panthers had to give up a 5th rounder to pick up the Tank. Landri will replace him. Don't expect him to see the field much, he is heavily undersized at the position.

OMG ~ Typical Panther trade

Boy that was a typical Panther trade, and yet another DT injuried and out for the season. Somebody quick tell Delhomme to kill a live chicken and use his voodoo magic from the big easy to get rid of these demons. Man Tank Tyler was just about like Leonard was in the fact that he was finally starting to get comfortable in this D-Scheme and now he is gone. Now we have Nick Hayden and some castoff from the Jags we just need to get through the rest of this season and thank godness it is almost over.

All Panther fans should watch this Sunday’s game b/c it may be the last time that we get a win all season. No way we are going to beat the Vikes, Pats, or Saints (whether they are going for a undefeated season or not) we could be the Giants well maybe.

Just let the season be over for crying out loud b/c this is getting crazy.

Tyler's going to be here next year, too.

The trade helped for this year, but I feel much better about Tyler next year than probably anybody we could have gotten in the 5th round.

Remember when the Panthers had a good offensive line? Yeah, me too.

That’s horrible. We’re losing players right and left. What’s going on? I don’t see other teams playing go fish with their starters, do we really just have that sh*tty of luck?

At least a chimp could probably wrap up pretty well.

Blah – regardless….

“Come Sunday we will achieve Moore!” (haha)

Double Trouble; we've got the best running backs in the NFL that never see the ball!

In a situation like this....

It’ll be easy to put people on IR. You start to wonder if this is because they’ve suffered a season-ending injury, or if John Fox is building his resume for his rehire.

I don’t want to call shannigance too quickly, but it gives John Fox another thing to say to Jerry Richardson once they have that fateful meeting of doom and gloom at the end of the season, providing we go 7-9 or 8-8

After Matt Moore becomes a solid starter, we’re going to go 15-1. Cmon guys, get on the banwagon!
