Loss of Lloyd has Carolina concerned
Quote:
What made Lloyd worth a roster spot was his ability on kickoffs. The Panthers had a very shaky kick coverage team – if you call 31st out of 32 teams shaky. We do. If Lloyd didn’t kick the ball deep enough for a touchback, the suspect Panthers coverage team was likely to get burned. Fortunately for them, over the last two years, nobody launched more kickoffs for touchbacks than Lloyd – who had 51 kickoffs for touchbacks over the 2008 and 2009 seasons. Ryan Longwell had 10.

Glad to see this kind of news roll out of Carolina. Bodes well for Lloyd. Now if he can just get Longwell to "watch his kickoffs" and learn from them.
Just think how devastating Lloyd will be indoors!
