Here's are some other 1st round WR picks second year compared to their 1st. As you can see, they all stayed pretty much the same. Smith-Njigba is an exception but they brought Mike Macdonald in as the HC his second year which I think explains that. Again, I think anyone expecting significantly more targets and yardage will be disappointed.

It's also possible to go 0-17, or 17-0. I didn't even include our own division in that, with Tampa and Atlanta both equalling our win total, and the damn Saints sweeping us. Double digit wins. Might be more than a long shot. But hey, anything is possible. There is no starting caliber left tackle. XL is absolutely not a top 2 wr. The linebacker group may very well be the worst in the league. There is no pass rush. The top cb may not even be the best cb on the team. And I haven't even mentioned whatever Young is. I know, I know, maybe they will just be better next year! 8 wins, and a struggle to get to that, but somehow a 25% increase in wins should be a given. With what reasoning? fuging magic? It's the Panther way.

This is pretty telling. Why Sexton got traded and they hope White fixes this problem at least somewhat.

Yawn. Hes not white. Not really a big deal.

far they were not perfect I agree on that

Everyone seems to forget that Rivera never made any changes until it was too late.

We shouldve wont a couple SBs, but Rivera was too set in his ways and Shula wasnt creative enough.

Curling ranks right up there with Ribbon Twirling except less strenuous.

Me neither but Nix plus all those trade assets vs. Bryce minus all those assets is a no brainer

More importantly, the owner seems to love him.

What time is the next game? How about that!!!!!!!

Not the biggest fan of Nix. I think he was the weak spot of their roster. His YPA was 6.4 to Bryce’s 6.3 so he had just more attempts and an extra game for the extra yardage. % is practically identical through 2 more TDs. Their ratings are identical with Bryce having a worse QBR. Now add in Nix having the more complete roster and much better play caller (despite how much I hate him). They seem pretty similar to me honestly. Keeping all the assets would best part of this scenario but I’d still feel uneasy about our QB situation.

One interview will not change my overall perspective of Tep but he came across very well IMO. Saw previous comment about the “they” reference regarding snow and did not feel particularly offended as he was talking/relating to a Pitt guy and his statement was valid. just my personal .02. But If u feel or see it differently, that’s ok and understandable by me

OP is partially right though. How do you not make multiple deep playoffs runs with arguably the best MLB of all time and one of the most unique and dominant QBs of his time? To me the answer is Ron Rivera. He simply wasn't good enough and didn't make the right moves with Cam until it was too late. Efforts were made in the draft to "try" to address our needs, but a lot of those picks flopped. And the FO was not nearly aggressive enough in replacing Jordan Gross, and they were far too complacent with Olsen as our best pass catcher until we got DJ Moore.

This ^^^ im as white as can be and in my hs/college days playing football it was frequently encouraged.

That's the truly frustrating thing about UNC football. We've had great offenses and we've had great defenses but it seems like whenever we have one or the other that it's a law of the universe that the other unit has to be absolute bottom of the barrel trash.

Curling is the goat of Winter Olympics

we had one of the most successful runs in franchise history under all of them. We came very close to having one of the best seasons of all time You make it sound like they ran us like the Jets

also he shouldn't have thrown the cup of water on the fan, he's literally the owner of the franchise, but that guy sounded like a huge dick cheering for an injured player. I think it's actually kinda cool he got mad about it. I'm kinda like a dad when their kid punches a bully. can't punch people, but the guy deserved it.

I have been a huge (maybe the biggest) Tepper hater but I will admit, ever since the Hurricane affecting western NC he has been only making good decisions. I still very much wish he would replace grass at the Bank but otherwise he's doing a good job. He seems to have trust in Brandt and Dave to make decisions which to this point they've had more hits than misses.

lmao I know just absolutely toilet paper quality defenses

yep totally agree, huge loss and feel so bad for him personally

You bring up a fair point, HOWEVER, in 2028 the WR two contracts are going to be even more pricy.

It’s a pain that will never go away
