The Pod Cats Show: Recent Episodes
Preston Neill
The newest and possibly last Pod Cats ever (#Mayans) is now available for download here. This week we discuss if the Chargers game changes anything about Rivera’s job status, who is Hawaii bound, and we break down the case for Steve Smith to be in Canton. We also are soliciting nicknames for the tandem of […]
This weeks Pod Cats Show is up! Doug, Peter, and Preston talk about Ron Rivera’s job security, the Bobcats losing streak, and if Cam Newton is secretly an Alabama fan. Listen here or subscribe to us in the iTunes store!
Thomas Davis did what no one thought he would be able to do: he came back from three knee reconstructions, all on the same knee. No player has ever done that, much less in the NFL where knee injuries are becoming commonplace. Dennis Dillon over at Sports Illustrated agrees and makes the case that Thomas […]

Today’s loss to the Kansas City Chiefs put the final nail in the Panthers coffin this year by mathematically eliminating the Panthers from playoff contention. This shouldn’t come to a surprise to most NFL followers or anyone with eyes, but it is still a notable achievement considering Ryan Kalil’s bold Super Bowl prediction to start […]
As of my last post, the Bobcats were sitting one game above .500 and looking toward a four-game homestand against fair opposition, including the streaking Grizzlies and always-tough Hawks. They split the series 2-2 and showed signs of a developing team, both good and bad. In their games against Memphis, turnovers were Charlotte’s undoing, committing […]
This weeks Pod Cats show has us discussing what the Panthers victory over the Eagles means for Rivera (or Riveera) and the season, as well as what the measuring stick game against the Thunder tells us about where the Bobcats are. Also, hang out until the end to hear Peter’s excellent rendition of a familiar […]
Coming off their slump-busting win against the Mavericks last Saturday, the Bobcats were 2-3 and facing back-to-back nights against the lowly Wizards, and the hobbled Timberwolves. Two games later with half a country’s worth of travel thrown in, the Bobcats sit at 4-3, just a game out of first place behind the 6-3 Miami Heat. Charlotte took […]
Breaking @bobcats News: Team has acquired forward Hakim Warrick @hdubb21 from New Orleans in exchange for Matt Carroll. — B.J. Evans (@BobcatsBballPR) November 13, 2012 Carroll, 32, played only six minutes for the Bobcats in their first five games. Warrick, 30, appeared in just one game for the Hornets this year, logging seven minutes and […]
Joseph Person of the Charlotte Observer is reporting that special teams coordinator Brian Murphy has been relieved of his duties. This comes in the wake of yesterday’s special teams disaster, in which Broncos kick returner Trindon Holliday returned a punt 90 yards for a touchdown, and threatened to break several more returns. Richard Rodgers, who was […]
14 carries between Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams. 37 yards on those carries. 36 pass attempts. 0-12 on third-down conversions. Seven sacks allowed. As many people said yesterday, these are the kinds of games that get coaches fired. Here’s Jonathan Jones’ take in the Charlotte Observer. Has Cam Newton become average? Tom Sorensen gives his […]
From injured linebacker Jon Beason’s Twitter account: I must say, Panther fans I’m sick I’m missing this one! Tune in for the 1st time ever in team history! #ALLBLACK lockerz.com/s/260628097 — Jon Beason (@jonbeason) November 11, 2012 Here’s the picture: UPDATE: From DeAngelo Williams’ Twitter account, a confirmation. First time in panther history black on […]
Bobcats win! Panthers win! Which one is bigger? Also breaking down Cam and RG3 as the new model QBs, and we discover how little Doug knows about Ben Folds Five! Check out the new podcast here and as always subscribe in iTunes!
One of the biggest storylines going into Sunday’s clash between Carolina and Denver is the return of former Panthers head coach John Fox to the Bank of America Stadium sidelines. Fox coached the Panthers from 2002-2010 and made waves throughout the NFL when he steered the Panthers to the Super Bowl in the 2003 season, […]
(CBS Sports) One of our few marquee matchups of the season. MKG vs. The Brow. They shouldn’t see much of each other 1-on-1 but the former Wildcat teammates will dominate the pregame discussion. Both of these teams are shooting terribly so this one could be an ugly view. If Byron can continue his hot shooting […]
From Opposing Views I tend to agree. Tiny sample size but in our game against Indiana Kemba showed large and we won, and in the follow-up against the Mavs he shrank and we lost. In our Bobcats preview I singled Kemba out as a possible team MVP and Least Valuable Player for precisely this reason. […]
Charlotte Bobcats (0-0) vs. Indiana Pacers (1-0) Tip: 7:00 EST, Time Warner Cable Arena TV: SportSouth; DirecTV 650/650-1 (HD); Dish 443/9581 (HD) Radio: WFNZ 610 (Charlotte) Sirius: 93 SiriusXM: 218 The Bobcats open the 2012-2013 season against Indiana, who are coming off a come-from-behind win in their opener against Toronto. The Pacers outscored the Raptors […]
Beach Carolina Magazine Beach Carolina breaks down our starting lineup. Get to know the team a little better and get ready for tip off at 7p EST against the Pacers.
The NBA season is here and that can only mean one thing: another season of futility and suffering for Bobcats fans. But have no fear, the Pod Cats are here to help you through the pain of the Ben Gordon deal, the frustration of Kemba Walker’s development, and the sheer pointlessness of having Ty Thomas […]
You can find all the tweets here. Mercifully, the Bobcats weren’t on Bleacher Report’s list. A quick analysis of Delonte’s tweets: +1 on being proactive in trying to get a job +1 for wanting communication when “checks come up missin or short.” Everybody’s gotta make that paper. +3 for being perfectly fine with Popeyes, even if […]
Midway through the season still might not be enough to tell, but Bobcats fans should hope that Kidd-Gilchrist finds his feet by then. We saw this with Kemba Walker; he started very slowly, but by midseason, was beginning to find ways in which he could affect games for stretches at a time.
Fox Sports Ron Rivera. Not concerned. This should not come as a surprise to anyone who has kept an eye on the Carolina sidelines. His demeanor and appearance 99% of the time resembles that of someone at the final table of the World Series of Poker.
From our friends over at Roberto Gato comes a best case/worst case breakdown of our major players.
Charlotte Observer Interesting look at Coach Dunlap’s strategy for the season. It is reassuring that Coach Dunlap has a definable PLAN for the offense moving forward. It is one that focuses on taking smart shots and getting closer to the rim. Considering we were dead last in three pointers made and percentage last year, that […]
SB Nation I know a lot of people are calling for it but his value is low so whatever we get back won’t be anything close to the amount of money we’re paying him. Sure, we could get the money off the books for next season but wouldn’t it be nicer to reincorporate him into […]
If you were watching the Bears’ final drive on Sunday afternoon and thought, “Hey, they’re running the same play again and again,” then congratulations! You’re right. From NFL.com: “They threw the same pass play I think all the way down the field,” safety Charles Godfrey said via the Charlotte Observer. “That was a great play for […]
Ron Rivera On Thin Ice (NFL.com) “Now the pressure’s on,” Rivera said. “Now there’s consequences. So we have to find out if this group is going to do it under me when there’s consequences.” After this week’s loss. I’m going to go out on a limb and say probably not.
What’s this? Two Pod Cats in a week? This podcast covers the Marty Hurney firing and a discussion about Cam Newton’s post game press conference. Totally worth listening to, if only to hear Doug impersonate Denny Green. How does that relate? Listen to find out! Look for us in the iTunes Store as well!
The Podcast you have been waiting for is right here. In this episode Peter and Doug test their mettle against the history of the entire Carolina Panthers for trivia supremacy. Two men enter, and both men leave, but only one will leave with the title of Pod Cats Trivia Champion. As always, check us out […]
Joseph Person of the Charlotte Observer reports that Panthers center Ryan Kalil is done for the season with a Lisfranc injury. So even Kalil must be having second thoughts about this.
Here it is: Week 5’s somber recap Pod Cats. This week Doug, Peter, and Preston play the blame game, give the Panthers a scathing report card, and say things like ‘Ron Rivera Era’ with aplomb. Tensions mount in this podcast so get your popcorn ready! (Seriously, its just shy of an hour long and you […]
Week 4 brought a lot of things, but none more important than all three Pod Cats for a podcast! Listen as Doug, Peter, and Preston break down Rivera’s dilemma, what to do with Haruki, and Doug compares the Panthers coaching to British royalty and the Prime Minister. You just can’t get better analysis than this. […]
