Next up is the Falcons, a team that usually owns this sorry franchise for some reason. We expecting another ass kicking from a bad team or do the Panthers get up off the mat and make the fanbase have some hope again? I think the Panthers are getting curb stomped personally. They gave up against the Giants and if they couldn't show a solid effort against a 1-5 team, ooh wee mayne. Gonna be rough from here on out. Falcons 42 Panthers 12

Tua is better than Darnold, how much I'm not sure

I'm a fan of winning, something the current owner and coaching staff don't know how to do.

Too late for this. Wish they’d done it during the off-season. Minshew starting with Fields on the bench would have been fire

Minshew strikes me as a tell it like it is kinda guy. He scrapped his way into the NFL and showed a lot of moxie when I’ve watched him play. Maybe his style doesn’t jive with some NFL teams way of life, just my speculation. Either way I bet he sees some playing time for the Eagles very soon.

Guess the Panthers believe in going all in and not hedging their bets. Thought a hedge fund manager would know better than that. Now his team’s stadium will either be empty of full of opposing team’s fans because no one wants to watch Sam Darnold dance around the pocket not throwing to open receivers because he’s a shook failure.

Maybe he’s too real for the nfl

Minshew would have been better than Darnold at this point.

Why wasn't a veteran QB signed along with Darnold? Or why wasn't a rookie QB drafted? The chances Darnold failed were extremely high, and PJ Walker is terrible and Will Grier is probably terrible but he's not here anymore for us to find out. How was handing over the keys to the franchise to a QB you dumpster-dove off a bad Jets team the ONLY STARTING OPTION for this team?

he f*cking sucks, throws a few picks and can't bounce back. has the mental fortitude of a 6 year old.

He's senile cut him some slack LOL

lol I came to the site and got a DNS error and thought the trade had happened

That team had Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly they were going to figure it out

My buddy is a big Cardinals fan and we were just talking about this same thing lol

it would be so Panthers to trade for Watson and in his first game he tears his ACL again and he's out for the season

Matt Rhule makes Chip Kelly look like a genius. Rhule might go down as one of the worst coaching transitions from college to the pros in NFL history based on how much he got paid.

Different era. Pre me-too movement.

With Marshall out I don't know if it's a good idea to dump him yet.

I agree, these half measures with veteran stopgap QBs only works if you DRAFT a QB. Having Teddy start while they had a rookie on the bench would have been a solid move. Even Darnold starting while Fields or Jones was on the bench. There's not even a veteran backup to fall back on to get us through this season. It's just going to be a sh*tshow for the rest of the season now.

Panthers PR team gonna need to do some special gymnastics to get the fanbase to forget about the other stuff

They quit in the game against the Bengals in Jimmy Clausen's first start in 2010. Before it was a sure thing Fox was getting canned although that was the rumor

I'm not even considering that game because the team had nothing to play for after the coach got fired. At 3-3 against a bad Giants team, the team should NOT be quitting.

Honestly the defense has only looked poor in two games - Cowboys and Vikings games. Both of those teams are loaded on offense. If the offense was in any way competent the Panthers beat the Eagles and Giants with no issue.

You're blind if you can't see that. The number of first round talents on the defense is very high.

This team has a lot of talent. They could win with a more competent offensive coaching staff and a better QB. Even with the offensive line they have, not joking. The problem is really a bad QB and an offensive coordinator who doesn't know how to outscheme an NFL defense over the course of a full game. Look no further than the difference between player performance in 2010 and 2011. Steve Smith looked reborn after a pathetic 2010 season.
