I don’t think most of us are “crowning Young.” Without a toe tapping catch by Chark (where has that been?) it would have been just another Sunday. Where was the separation Mingo got on his catch all game? Whoever the next coach is we have to have some playmakers around whoever the quarterback is. We can only hope the next GM and coach will have some leeway to determine if we have a franchise quarterback or not and move forward. It was nice to beat Atlanta.

A lot of games are decided by “luck.” We had Atlanta beat last year and a referee called back a D.J. Moore touchdown because he took off his helmet, then we missed a game winning field goal. I think they Atlanta was lucky then. We may not win again this year, but I am going to enjoy this for a week.

I did, and it was great execution by Cooper and Flacco. I did not see any rain and win, given that I still like the Panthers better.

Exactly. Too much could go wrong to do anything but what they did. Less risk to do exactly what they did.

Belichick will not happen. Relax on that one.

The fans (few in attendance) do not.

There maybe something in the coaches contract that precludes them from commenting for a number of years, or until their contract runs out. By the time some of them speak on it it may be irrelevant.

Belichick is 71. If he leave N.E. I would be surprised if he doesn’t call it a day.

And Shi Smith.

Not going to switch teams, no joy in jumping on someone else’s bandwagon. However, After devoting 3 hours each week to the Panthers since their first game I am going to take a break. May catch a movie on Sunday for a while.

Very true. I was a Viking fan during the days when Minnesota was NFC champs. 4 Super Bowl appearances, no rings. They thought Herschel Walker was the missing piece and traded the farm.

Exactly. Icky will probably be a decent guard. I doubt there will be a decent left tackle by the time we draft.

I hope not, but it does look that way.

If Fitterer and a coach are going to Tepper undermining Reich there is not a prospective coaching candidate worth having that would come to Carolina. I defended Fitterer at one time, but he needs to be gone too. Like yesterday. Until Tepperer turns football operations over to someone else this franchise will continue to be terrible.

I live 120 miles up 1-85-40 from Bank of America Stadium. There are plenty of people around me that have had PSL’s from day 1. As fast as North Carolina is growing there are plenty of people to support a winning team that are willing to drive well over 75 miles.

It is 120 miles from where I live to Bank of America Stadium. I travel to a game down I-85 on game day I see others from my area who have PSL’s. (If they haven’t sold them) NC does have a large tv audience for the Panthers. The Carolina’s have been cursed with ownership groups with both the Hornets and the Panthers.

I can only daydream about where we would be if Tepper retained Wilkes, kept our draft picks and left our team intact. I am honestly more concerned about our next GM than the new coach.

A lot of replacement players who otherwise might not have seen the field are getting an opportunity. Hoping that someone can show promise. Donte Jackson needs to be replaced for sure.

Yes. He has been less visible the last couple of years and that has helped. However, over the years he has forced some trades that hurt the team. He also has had Charles Oakley Banned from MSG because he was critical of the Knicks. A lot of players will not play in NY because of him. He has some type of facial recognition installed so he can see if someone he doesn’t like enters MSG. The Knicks are off to an awful start this year.

You must know I am a Knicks fan and a Panther fan. Lucky me.

Not with all the self imposed meltdowns we have. Weak O.L. And killing every drive with penalties. It appears this team is not well coached, fundamental errors.

If as many teams called about trading for him he might have more value than many fans think. If Burns and Brown were not here we would have to do a rebuild on defense when we need to add offensive pieces.

That can be true, but in some markets demand is so high that your circle of friends can help find you a buyer without ever listing it.

In my humble opinion I suspect that is one reason national firms such as “Open Door” and others have been successful at penetrating the home buying market. People see another way than paying high commissions to their local real estate sales people when they have other options.
