Buccaneers are playing for their season too. you’re welcome for Joey by the way. Love that guy. Wish he could have stayed in Boone with Loggaines but whatever.

And there is the make-up call? That’s garbage. Do it when it’s consequential down the field not inside the 10 ya dick wad.

Refs just gave him 1.5 yards extra on that spot too. They spotted his helmet and not the ball.

He should have been borderline ejected. That is a massive problem. First 3rd down here should be an offensive pass interference on the Bucs full stop.

If these were Dallas or San Fransisco this would be front page sports news tomorrow. The Panthers have to publicly complain about that and eat the fine. That is the worst possible call in a de facto playoff game.

Ref not swallowing their whistle costs Panthers points. That’s complete garbage and even Bryce is actually getting onto an official about it which is the first time I’ve seen him angry.

They blew the play dead, didn’t give him time to run it, that is hot garbage. They have to give a make-up call for that at some point. Huge, huge miss.

It’s football man. 33 player groups contribute. Complementary football wins games.

2013 - Saints, NFCS Championship, pouring rain, Luke interception. Trigger point right here dudes.

First important game since 2022 against the Bucs. Laying an egg. How predictable. God this franchise sucks.

LFG. I remember exactly where I was when I looked down at my phone and saw we drafted a linebacker and I was thinking “in the top 10? With Beason and Anderson? Typical Panthers poo.” Was with my now ex’s family waiting outside a Cracker Barrel in Durham. I know that’s got nothing to do with Luke the player and what he accomplished but you don’t often have a memory like that imprinted on you unless someone really is transcendent. He deserves it.

Young threw for 54 yards… Darnold also had a horrific last game in a Panthers uniform when the Panthers beat the Saints. It’s either coaching, or its ability. For Darnold I believe it was coaching. For Bryce, I think it’s largely an ability defect

No we don’t. We could be 8-9. Clearly.

If Travis Kelci made it, it's a sham, period. Nothing else needs to be said about it.

Three years ago, I was expecting 10 wins in 2025, if Bryce panned out. That is the bar that must be met. 10 wins and Divisional Round appearance. Next year, you fill the one or two gaps and make a Super Bowl push. That's the blueprint buddy-o

Well he drifted out of bounds and dropped that ball then on another short pass took it like 20 yards after breaking a tackle or two. I don't know what it would take but you give him another year. Receivers who explode year one are the exception.

He looks the part, and has decent stats for how he began the season .Still not rookie of the year.

Everyone played like poo under Rhule. Come on man. I can see all of the fair weathers are coming back to the forums when we get shitposts like this.

This is poor form man. Baker was brought into a bad situation with an absolutely abysmal coach that was only rescued when Steve Wilks came on and took the role of man in the room. It isn’t Bakers fault, it isn’t Sam’s Fault. Rhule was genuinely one of the worst coaches in NFL history, and Sam had come from the Jets who are picking first yet again and Baker came from the Browns who are picking top 5 yet again. Both came in, both kept their head down and worked while here despite all of that noise.

Most people expected we should be at 10 wins. It’s year three of a quarterback on a rookie contract. Year three is the year you make a playoff push and year four is the year you make a Superb Owl run. If you can’t do it then, and the QB isn’t a Josh Allen or Mahomes, you may have screwed yourself into mediocrity.

Which is great for being in games late, not great for fans. But you know what? The only teams the Panthers have really struggled hard with this year are AFC. If we can get to the playoffs, and get a home playoff game, I firmly believe we could get to the Championship. We’ve beaten both the Rams and Packers, each of which we’d play in the divisional most likely.

It’s very possible. Darnold is finally who he was drafted to be with some good coaching and good receivers.

Darnold had a superior supporting cast? I’d like to see him with this group and Canales. He would have 35 TD’s.

I would have gone for it too. You don’t take the kick when you don’t have confidence in your kicker.

It isn’t Canales. It’s Bryce. It’s our draft strategy. To adequately utilize the receivers we drafted, you need a Joe Burrow style of QB, not Bryce. Bryce would thrive with a room like the Chiefs have. They even called him mini-Mahomes when he was drafted yet refuse to build the same style of offensive personnel.
