The Carolina Panthers host the “Ask the Old Guy” mailbag on Panthers.com, a recurring feature led by Senior Writer Darin Gantt. The column invites fans to submit questions through a form on Panthers.com and presents Gantt’s answers and perspective on the team and broader NFL topics. The feature runs regularly throughout the offseason and regular season.

Gantt frames the mailbag as a weekly forum that covers immediate team matters and long-term storylines. Recent entries in the series have addressed a rough loss and significant injuries, defensive play, running back depth, roster construction, draft and free agency coverage, and Hall of Fame voting. The archive also reflects discussions of training camp impressions and preseason takeaways.

Readers who submit questions may see selected items featured in future mailbag posts. The format blends reader Q&A with Gantt’s context, allowing for explainer-style answers beyond box scores and headlines. The mailbag’s regular updates document themes that emerge at different points of the football calendar.

As the Panthers progress through the season, the mailbag provides a consistent place for fans to raise topics and for the team’s senior writer to offer perspective. The series functions as both a Q&A and a running record of team developments. Fans can consult the archive on Panthers.com to track how narratives evolve over time.
