Meet the League’s Number 1 Defense...


....in the preseason.  Is it time for Carolina Panthers fans to get excited?  Through the first three weeks of preseason action, the Panthers lead the NFL in total defense, pass defense, sacks, and forced fumbles.  The team is also ranked second in terms of rush defense.  I know it is preseason but maybe Marty Hurney and John Fox knew that there were capable replacements for veteran stalwarts such as Julius Peppers, Damione Lewis, and Chris Harris.  Could the Panthers preseason weakness turn into a relative strength?  The answer will begin to be revealed September 12 against the New York Giants.
