No team can help injuries and I don't think any team can make up for the number of injuries the Panthers have on defense. Young guys are going to get opportunities and this is a positive. These guys are also going to make young guy mistakes.

I agree and I haven't given up on Mingo as a no. 3 yet.

The Panthers have to stop trading their good players for draft picks in hopes of drafting more good players. This is football 101 and Dan Morgan knows what he is doing so the days of giving up our good players for scraps is over. They need to extend DJ in the offseason and most teams stop contract talks during the season so this isn't a distraction. DJ is going to get paid if his production continues and he'll deserve every penny of it.

This. Luvu didn't want to be here and this isn't Morgan's fault.

No one should ever throw a drink on someone for any reason other than if they are on fire.

I am not a Tepper fan, but I find it very hard to believe that Tepper had any visibility to this. These invoice issues happen all the time with large companies and I bet the city was just as negligent.

Bryce is an asset and they need to maximize whatever they can get for him and even if it isn’t this year. Bryce has never been a locker room instigator and I think he’s a good kid.

Refreshing game but it is just one game. Let’s see what this team looks like in 6 weeks. Raiders basically had zero tape on this offense and that’s a huge advantage that will shrink once tape is out. Johnson is a stud and what a pick up.

I like Person. He asks difficult questions that many reporters shy away from.

Bryce has been so bad this year that we don’t even know how good or awful this team is.

Panthers win today is my prediction.

Idiotic to trade him now unless you can get a 1st and that’s not going to happen. Then again, this team continues to make idiotic moves so it will probably happen.

Andy is going to get hurt, so Bryce will have another shot and he needs to be ready because it might be his last shot.

I wouldn't say Bryce is done in Carolina. I would say that Canales is making this a competition and may the best man win and at the moment, this is Dalton. The rest is up to Bryce if he wants to try to win the job back or not and I'm not convinced he's good enough to win it back.

Good for Canales and he earned lots of respect from me. Now the ball is in Bryce's court to either man up and try to win the job back or pout and vanish. Nothing is given to anyone these days and especially at the pro level. I wouldn't want to play the Panthers this weekend because I think they are going to be pumped up.

The part that is so irritating to me is if the Panthers would have just kept their good players and stayed at pick 9 . . . we would have Levis, CMC, DJ Moore, Marvin Harrison Jr (or Caleb Williams), and Diontae Johnson. These are elite playmakers and I'm not even getting into passing on two 1sts for Burns.

Fact - Bryce isn't even the best QB on the roster and might not be the 2nd best QB if you include the practice squad.

No, it is not worth it with Tepper as the owner. I had faith in JR and this is what kept me around during the dark times. I'm actively searching for a new team and don't feel guilty about it. However, it is not easy to walk away from 30 years and I keep coming back to this dumpster fire for some sad reason.

I hope fans start boycotting games. This eventually will get the NFL's attention.

I did option 3 last year which was search for a new team. Geographically, the Jags are the other team that is close to where I live and I'm trying to like them but I keep coming back to the Panthers. It is so hard to walk away from 29 years of entertainment, but I'm trying. I have zero faith in Tepper and he has zero ties to the area and I think all he cares about is revenue and with the NFL profit sharing, bad teams still print money.

Sadly, I think this is it. This gets back to everyone's issue with Tepper because I would bet a lot of money that the coaches would prefer to win and Dalton give us the best chance to win at the moment, but Tepper isn't going to have this. In Tepper's defense, I don't think many owners would be any different in the 2nd year of a rookie QB that they went all in with.

I don't disagree but if Dalton is playing then we are picking a new QB next year anyway and I'd rather keep losing so we can get the #1 pick. All of us are furious because sports should be enjoyable and nothing about the Panthers has been enjoyable for a long time. I watched the lowest amount of football I've ever watched in my life last year and I might take the same approach this year depending on the next couple of weekends.

Yeah we are in the midst of a historically bad time to be a Panthers fan. I'm not sure the Panthers can get out of it with Tepper.

I think you have to give Young the whole year unless he completely loses his confidence. If this happens, we are moving on from him anyway so why does it really matter. I think the #1 pick is going to be between the Panthers and Giants.

Sports are just as much mental as physical and especially at the QB position. I think Canales repaired Mayfield mentally and now he's balling out. He balled out his first year or two in the league, so the talent is there. I'm not there on Darnold and I need to see much more than one game.
