Questions are starting to emerge about how the Carolina Panthers approached their linebacking corps this offseason. General Manager Dan Morgan is facing increased scrutiny, with one former fan favorite adding further weight to these concerns as Week 3 begins around the league.

That hasn't exactly reaped rewards as yet.
