So, this is more of a "nail in the coffin" type of post because I'm really getting about as sick of discussing David Gettis and Brandon LaFell as I am arguing with Tater that Armanti isn't going to be our backup 3rd string QB and likely might not be with the team this year.

A Deeper Look at New Panthers TE Nelson Rosario

Yesterday the Carolina Panthers made another roster tweak as they cut Idaho RB Princeton McCarty from the practice squad to add TE Nelson Rosario of UCLA who was released following Jacksonville's rookie mini-camp.

Mature Newton lightens the mood, even as his load grows

I walk to Carolina Panthers practice Thursday, stuck in a logjam behind DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart, and from the back there's a voice, talking and singing, loud and low.

Kellen Winslow to be Moved- Could the Carolina Panthers be Interested?

Typically I detest the constant stream of 'We should sign ____!' ideas every time a player is cut, or made available- but in the case of Buccaneers TE Kellen Winslow there's a schematic precedent and relationship with Rob Chudzinski that makes it an interesting scenario.
