Kentucky Panther

We had just come off a 12-4 season where we hosted a playoff game and had a guy win DPOY. Not comparable scenarios.

The problem is not posters want the team to lose. Very clown thing to say. We are all posting on an internet message board to talk football. The problem is posters being completely fine with winning five or six games a year. Doing just enough to not change things next season. Leading right up to the middle of the pack position we have been so accustomed to getting. I’m glad some of you enjoy it so much. Some of us recognize we need to try and change some things up instead of staying stuck in this wonderful cycle.

It’s like some of you haven’t had enough of 5 and 6 win seasons recently. Might as well keep doing what we’ve been doing over and over. Clearly working.

I’m not moving goalposts. The team and run you mentioned involved a superstar QB in his prime. You don’t think that in itself gives the fan base a different mindset than what we’ve seen at the position recently? No one wanted to tank when we had Cam because there was no reason to tank.

The context is important. During that run we knew we had a bright future at QB. We do not have that luxury now. I did not feel the same way I did when we had Cam. We always had a chance with Cam. But for the past three seasons we’ve been in QB purgatory. Sam Darnold leading us to a first round playoff exit was not changing that.

I’m happy you have so much faith in Sam Darnold to do what Cam did. It must be nice to live in that reality.

This is a one in a hundred scenario. Teams with losing records usually do not make the playoffs. Also let’s be real, Cam >>>>> Darnold and it’s not even close, man. We knew we had a franchise QB at that point. I do not judge posters who wanted to make the playoffs. I said it would have been fun, regardless of what you think is the best for the team going forward.

Great. Now do all of the other seasons we finished with a losing record.

No. I literally said the games at the beginning of this season weren’t meaningless.

Games where we are in contention. Which we haven’t been in since the beginning of the season, before we realized we suck again. In contention is not sitting in second place of the short bus division of the NFL. In contention meaning we have a chance to make the championship. The line of thinking is that with the current state of the team/coaches, the better chance at building for next season is with the draft. Not limping into the playoffs with a losing record. Playoffs would have been fun for a week, but it would not have benefited the Panthers more than getting a higher pick.

This is correct. The best thing for the Panthers was not making the playoffs this season. I will never understand the logic those posters have, wanting to win meaningless games instead of getting better, perhaps even franchise changing, assets in the upcoming draft. Whoever the five seed is would have killed is.

I wouldn’t say he set us back. He was trying to do a job. Did it better than Rhule, but still a pretty mediocre job. I will say, he definitely didn’t do us any favors.

He’s better than Rhule but my god that standard is about as low as you can go. The Panthers have to think they can do better than that. Have to.

Give me either one. What a breath of fresh air that would be for the Panthers.

This board would have killed Rhule for losses like Wilks took against the Bengals, Steelers, and now Bucs. I don’t want to hear any of this “he did well with what he had” when the reality is his coaching has been suspect from the very beginning. Thankfully at this point it looks like most of the board recognizes this. Some of you still need to wake up and realize what mediocrity looks like. And how we will continue to show that if we make the decision to keep Wilks.

Which adjustment was your favorite? The one before or after Mike Evans third touchdown?

The only posters that were ever on the wagon were complete prisoners of the moment. This was not his first head scratching loss. We’ve had a few of them. Absolutely no reason to not do our best research on offensive guys and get the one we think is best. Poor @RLC003 might have to change his diaper once Wilks is gone and he can’t poo posts attacking his boy. What a loser.

He absolutely can’t get the full time job. If he does we screwed.

For the love of god, now that this game is lost, please don’t win next weekend. Let the saints have it. Let’s fire Wilks, get an offensive guy, and draft our future QB.

Isnt defense supposed to be what Wilks is good at ?

I really want to root and like Wilks. How he handles this last minute or so will be huge.

Guys, real poo. If this is the Darnold we have going forward, he’s our guy. And we can go BPA in the draft.

Sammy D! POW! A punch right to their mouth.

I have been a captain on the tank bandwagon for most of the season. But today I am all about FUGGING THE BUCS UP. Let’s get in the playoffs.

He used to be someone I would have been satisfied with picking up for next season instead of drafting QB. However, he has really stunk it up this season, with elite talent on offense.
