Carolina Means Business With This Whole Power Running Game

It's not enough that the Carolina Panthers' offensive line looks bigger every day, what with Travelle Wharton bulking up, 340-pound Toniu Fonoti opening camp as the starting right guard -- 325-pound Keydrick Vincent will work with the first team today -- and 330-pound Jeff Otah already being regarded as a freak of nature and reportedly pancaking Tyler Brayton multiple times during his first NFL practice. (Center Ryan Kalil, who weighs only 299 lbs., might be nicknamed "Tiny" before training camp is over.)

No, the Panthers are going one step further. They've brought in Natrone Means, former Tar Heel and San Diego Charger, to mentor Jonathan Stewart and make him ... well, just like Natrone Means.

GM Marty Hurney worked for the Chargers when Means ran over his opponents to the tune of 1,350 yards during his breakout 1994 season. Hurney didn't have to look far to find Means, either -- he's spent the last two years as the offensive coordinator at West Charlotte High School.

If you don't remember Natrone Means, check out the video of him after the jump. If Stewart turns out anything like Means, the Panthers will definitely be in business.
