Losing Derrick Brown last year was devasting to the defense, however, I also think losing Luvu was too. I like the focus on the D-line during free agency and the draft, however, I would like to see the Panthers pick up a few more LB to battle it out during camp. I still don't think this is a position of strength.

It was encouraging that Bryce was benched last year when he was not getting it done. This gave me hope that Canales and Morgan have the stones to do the right thing about him going forward. If he does not progress this season the Panthers should look to draft a new QB in the 2026 draft. I really hope BY is the answer. He has no excuses this year.

If I recall correctly the Chicago 2nd round pick at 39 is the Panthers via the BY trade….is this correct?

Maybe Morgan plans to suit up.

Because we are talking about the Panthers and the consistently stupid decisions they’ve made under the Tepper rule. I hope they don’t do this.

The Panthers have also let players go to other teams that were higher draft picks. Burns, Jackson, Chin, Gross Matos all left after 2023. Perhaps letting these go was correct but the point is even when they do draft they either don’t develop them or they pick the wrong guys. Back during the last SB run, the core of the team were high draft picks in defense and offense. Most of those drafted were Hurney picks and this was a big discussion that Gettleman got to the SB with mostly Hurney players. The Tepper years have been a myriad of coaching changes, GM changes, scheme changes and player changes with no consistency. Let’s hope both Teppers will allow their football people to make the football decisions going forward and this sinking ship will start floating again.

Too bad the Rams defense doesn’t have Burns…..

You may be right about Mays but here is my question…. not necessarily directed at you to answer. If BC is better than Mays then why did Mays become the starting center over BC? The Panthers o-line was one of the few bright spots this year.

Cade Mays showing promise. The Panthers may have accidentally found a serviceable center.

Could the Panthers have done the same thing and received a compensation pick?

Actually, they gave up Donte Jackson for him.

The Panthers get a better draft pick in round 2 if the Rams lose tonight.

Didn’t Mays beat out BC for the starting center?

TBD

Panthers got Jordan Gross and Horn at #8 as well.

Losing Luvu was huge

The Panthers own the Rams 2nd for this years draft.

Disheartening to realize Darnold and Mayfield were on the Panthers and both were released.

I don’t think the Panthers should count on Brooks in 2025. You have to think missing two NFL seasons would not be a super great way to start a great career.

Definitely need to add some QB competition to the room. Bryce has improved but he needs to earn it next year.

This game is similar to preseason

Good place for us to remember this: Tepper’s overall record as the Panthers owner is 34-79. But, at least Charlotte now has music.

Tepper’s overall record as the Panthers owner is 34-79. LOL

The hit against Legette last week was a lot worse and not called

Hope it is not the same knee
