Sunday afternoon highlights

A few highlights from Sunday's training camp practice at Wofford:

-- When the Panthers switched from their base starting defense to the nickel scheme in passing situations, here's what happened:

BASE

LDE -- Tyler Brayton; LDT -- Maake Kemoeatu; RDT -- Damione Lewis; RDE -- Julius Peppers

SLB -- Na'il Diggs; MLB -- Jon Beason; WLB -- Thomas Davis

LCB -- Chris Gamble; SS -- Chris Harris; FS -- Charles Godfrey; RCB -- Ken Lucas

NICKEL

LDE -- Stanley McGlover; LDT -- Brayton; RDT -- Lewis; RDE -- Peppers

LBs -- Beason; Davis

LCB -- Gamble; SS -- Harris; FS -- Godfrey; RCB -- Lucas; Nickel -- Richard Marshall.

So, what happened was Marshall and McGlover came in, Kemoeatu and Diggs went out, and Brayton moved inside from an outside position.

http://blogs.charlotte.com/panthers/2008/0...y-afternoo.htmlJust FYI. Looks like they have gotten smarter moving Thomas Davis to the weak side, but not smart enough because Richard Marshall is still only playing in the Nickle.

And Gamble has a cast on his hand but they are still starting him in the base defense.

At least its an improvement.

Also I am reading that the DTs are not playing well and there are concerns that the Panthers will be soft up the middle. This could hurt Beason if he is forced to fight off too many blockers.

Very nice.

I wonder if Peppers and McGlover will do a little bit of side swapping on those pass rush downs.

Why must you do this kind of stuff to me post-auction?

Just reporting it when I see it.

They have Godfrey as a starter?

They have Godfrey as a starter?

That's been the plan since draft day.

Yep This could cut into Marshall's numbers. Basically they'll have 3 CB's on the field in their base defense, which will give them some flexability in multi receiver sets.
