I doubt it will be reasonable. I liked that we seemed to be officially tanking but if we start signing 1-2 year deals for older vets that aren’t long term, we are just right back to the 5-7 win range screwing if draft slots when we need that. 

No team/owner/headcoach/player will EVER go into a new season with the intention to "tank".  There is just too much at stake.  Will a owner be happy if attendance at games goes in a downward spiral if the team doesn't perform? NO! Will players be happy if their value goes down if they are not put in a postion to shine? NO! How about the coach(es)? Do you think they'd be happy with a dismal season? NO!   WE WERE NOT PLANNING ON TANKING AT ANY POINT....

Stop it, just stop ......  

... and I was so hoping to make the cover at one point......

...was embrace the suck.  Imagine if Wilks didnt really try and we finished that year as the worst team.  We would still have all the draft capital and DJ Moore to build around Bryce or whom ever.  I think Reich and company would have felt better because they could in theory, pick another qb if Bryce wasnt the chosen one, the next year.  Wilks is a great coach and he was coaching for a job Tepper was never going to give him, which is sad.  Tepper fugged us like the great glass elevator from Willy Wonka, sideways, backways, frontways and any other ways you can think of.  It just amazes me how bad we screwed up a tank in a year we desperately need to tank.

Having an offense this terrible lets the defense look alot better than it really is.  Teams can sit on a small lead and play it conservatively b/c they know no chance the panthers score. I look at it as more everytime the panthers terrible offense actually put up decent points the defense still allowed the opposing offense to put up more .

huh?

Panthers swag was already sparse in SC, but now? Lol, you wouldn't think the NFL had a footprint here.  I see more Falcons stuff around here than Panthers.  It's not like Atlanta has been anything lately, but at least they aren't the NFL doormat.  Also, the Panthers radio affiliate in the upstate is Rock 101.1.  The DJ plugs game day broadcast has now affectionately started dubbing the team the Charlotte Panthers.  Totally intentional. 

 With all due respect, I live near Charleston and of all the other stuff from other teams...... I hardly ever see Falcon attire..... Cowboys? Yes!!... Eagles?Yes!!...... Steelers?Yes!!.....Giants?YES (lots of it) ......  And indeed, not much Panthers stuff (there wasn't much to start with anyway)

Welcome........  and if you happen to be in the area, stop by at the Charleston Artist Guild Gallery on East Bay.....

Heck, everyone on this team wants to walk.  Tepper's money will keep some FAs here.

only if they like what they are seeing when the "master plan" if unfolded....

... every single Panthers game I can..... 

Like Billy Joel once said: "....I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are....."

You will NOT get a top notch QB in the second round..... picking a mediocre QB and putting him in the same situation as where Bryce is in right now doesn't make much sense.... insanity is doing the same thing twice and expecting a different result.  Build around the QB position first and then see what we should do next year (when we undoubtedly have a better draft position)

I’m fully on board with getting Harbaugh and him being there today probably has nothing to do with the panthers, I love a good conspiracy theory so I’m all in haha. When it comes to the panthers, what the hell else do I have to look forward too? 

answer: months and months of Bryce bashing and Stroud glorification....

YES!!

".... you're gonna be fine.... don't worry.... just dont read anything they say about you on the Huddle......"

That was a weird spin move .......

I know, we have 100 different variations of this thread here on the huddle...  but, I have to say it.

We really traded CMC, DJ, and two firsts within a year, moved up to the #1 pick and despite drafting the guy "we" wanted there, we go on to be the worst team in the league and give up the first overall pick the next draft as a result.  We could not have gambled any worse.  There is losing and then there is LOSING, and we redefined it with this last year of moves and it's gonna take several years to dig ourselves out of this hole, if it's even possible.

wow.... that's a completely new perspective on things.....

The team has done nothing to keep anyone watching. People that say you aren't a good or real fan for feeling apathetic towards this garbage team are being ridiculous. 

 

The only things we can do as fans is talk with our dollars and time. If we take that away the team can either put a competitive team on the field or move on. We don't owe the Panthers anything, they in fact owe us. If they can't field an entertaining team they are worthless.

 Nobody owes you anything....  now, go bed to bed !!
