Football is finally back Curtis Samuel Jersey White , and rrage of delicious “Made from Scratch” recipes to resume their assault on your taste buds! When starting any football season, teams like to get not only a home matchup (finally), but also an opponent that looks on paper at least to be a bit of a tune up game.The Carolina Panthers get the Dallas Cowboys in week one, and this version of the Cowboys’ team is the closest to a full offensive rebuild as I’ve ever seen it.The teams are equal in that the Cowboys will roll into town with a slew of injuries already affecting their offensive line, but the separation in talent really starts to show in the skill position department. While Ezekiel Elliott is certainly a great running back, the Panthers have a great one two punch in their backfield with both Christian McCaffrey and C.J. Anderson ready for action. The true disparity becomes apparent when you look at pass catchers, where the Panthers will finally bring a stable of weapons to the table in the wide receiver department, and the ever popular Greg Olsen once again at tight end. Any discussion of offensive firepower would not be complete without a quarterback comparison... and while Dak Prescott is one of the up and coming young quarterbacks in the NFL, he is no Cam Newton.Things could still go south quickly for the Panthers however, as we are not quite sure what we’ll get out of this patchwork offensive line we are currently rolling with. The Cowboys have a couple great defenders in linebacker Sean Lee, who while not as good as Luke Kuechly, is still a talented player... and in DeMarcus Lawrence, one of the NFL’s best up and coming defensive ends.On the food front, we’ve got a really tasty fridge to table dip on tap this week that is best when made ahead, and also makes a large portion for very little cost. This dish really needs a solid 24 hours to sit in the fridge and let those flavors penetrate deep into the veggies, like a bunch of little Kawann Short flavonoids rushing right through an overmatched bean based line.

So settle onto your couch with this dip for the game or pack up the car and make your way down to Charlotte, North Carolina for what promises to be an exciting home opener, and remember...KEEP POUNDING.If you could replace the Jerry Richardson statue, what moment would you immortalize? New Panthers owner David Tepper disclosed that he is “contractually obligated” to keep the enormous Jerry Richardson statue in front of Bank of America stadium. In light of the reasons for Mr. Richardson selling the Panthers in the first place, the revelation about the statue generated understood criticism here at CSR and elsewhere. Let’s assume for a moment that Jerry Richardson heard the criticism, realized the statue as-is was tone-deaf, then came up with a compromise: You can replace the statue, but the new one needs to depict the single greatest moment from the years I owned the team so my legacy isn’t totally forgotten. While it’s highly unlikely Jerry will ever compromise on the statue, let’s just pretend here that he does. And not only that, but Mr. Richardson leaves it up to the CSR faithful to determine what the new statue should look like. What would you choose? What moment from the JR era would you cast in bronze to eternally honor the legacy of a flawed man who still brought us the joy of having our very own NFL franchise? Here are a few options to consider, but please type your own into the comments:September 17, 1995 - The Panthers played their first ever home game in Week 3 of the 1995 season. Perhaps a 360-degree statue showing the players in the first offensive huddle that took place in Carolina would be a fitting tribute . Steve Smith, 2003 NFL Divisional Game - An image of Steve Smith scoring the game-winning touchdown in double overtime against the St. Louis Rams to put the Panthers into the NFC Championship game would be classic. This may have been the most exciting moment in Panthers history from one of its most iconic players. amerikanskfotball.tnfj.com2003 Super Bowl Team - The Cardiac Cats were so memorable. A statue saluting the first Carolina team to make the Super Bowl would be wonderful, helping us tell stories to our grandkids about Jake, Smitty Womens DJ Moore Jersey , Moose, Peppers, Rucker, Jenkins...Oh, man, that would be great. Ron Rivera “Thumbs Up” vs. Atlanta, 2014 - I just love this image. It would have to be a robot instead of a statue though because the head would need to bob and the arm would need to come up. It re-lives the Panthers sneaking into the playoffs while simultaneously trolling the Falcons. What’s not to love? 2015 Super Bowl Team - While the Cardiac Cats from 2003 were a great story, the 2015 team was one of the most dominant in NFL history. Going 15-1 and reaching the Super Bowl is a legendary season, and this bunch should be remembered. As for me, I’d go with a statue of the 2003 Super Bowl team. I had lived most of my life in Utah where I was a general NFL fan without a favorite team before moving to Greensboro, N.C. in June of 2003. I hopped on the Panthers bandwagon faster than you can say “Harris Teeter” and have been passionate ever since. A statue commemorating the 2003 Cardiac Cats would be a good way to remember what Jerry built while putting the focus on the team and the fans, not the former owner. So, CSR faithful, if you could replace the Jerry Richardson statue with something to instead remember a special moment from his tenure as owner, what would you choose?
