Carolina Panthers don't make trades at deadline; How to fix Ikem Ekwonu's struggles

The NFL Trade deadline passed with the Carolina Panthers not making any trades. Dennis Cox & Chris Lea disagree on if a move - even a small one - should've been made to acquire future draft capitol. But they agree if the value wasn't there for a guy like Brian Burns, Derrick Brown, or others, then it was smart not to make a move. Kenton Gibbs, former NC State football defensive lineman, joined Panthers Playbook to talk about the struggles of Carolina Panthers LT Ikem Ekwonu, and if his struggles are fixable. Plus, Dennis & Chris look ahead to Sunday's matchup with the Indianapolis Colts, which will see Panthers head coach Frank Reich facing his former team.
