What I been saying. All this talk of the run defense. Djax getting picked on by Robbie Anderson out there today. If this pass rush looks like booty we're going to see opposing QB's looking like prime Brady back there.

This is very valid but 99.9% of the fans here wanted Rivera gone. Be careful what you wish for as they say.

If Mills was one of his old pals like Eric Washington he would have been promoted.

McDermott didn’t get enough credit. But McAdoo is the guy who couldn't get a coordinator hire in several years until shown otherwise. Hiring Rhule some babysitters might help against weaker teams. At a minimum there is no excuse for us not to compete in our division with the recent changes.

Follow the clear trends and adjust expectations. Baker will be up and down like he has been in his career thus far but he will capitalize on big plays where Darnold failed because he was just a terrible decision maker with the football overall. For Baker to be a success Matt Rhule has to level up and stop getting consistently outcoached on gamedays. You can rabble on about haters but other coaching staffs know Matt Rhule's tendencies by now and they will be looking to exploit that regardless of who is the quarterback.

It's all in your head. Last year you were all about Sam Darnold being held back by Adam Gase and Sam was going to turn the corner like Ryan Tannehill and anyone who thought that might be very presumptuous were just haters.

Right and that was Rhule just playing the same smoke and mirrors game that fooled no one then and still fools no one now. There are four years of tape on Darnold doing the same things he's always done.

The voices around the league who have experience in the NFL and those in the media who are skeptical all just blindly hate Matt Rhule? Delusional.

This whining about not "handing" a QB the job cracks me up. We had open discussions about whether Darnold was being coddled last summer after he was handed the job and many people said such assertions were nonsense. Now look at us.

He's here he's better than Darnold and yes that isn't really saying much but if he doesn't work out it's back to the draft probably. No sense rehashing these complaints not for how much he is making compared to Sam.

Wasting valuable reps and time the 1st team offense needs to gel together so we can showcase the worst starting QB of the last several years who has zero future with this team

If DJ really has a problem with fans who spend their downtime chugging beer and peering over stats judging his game he can elevate it and haul in a contested ball in the air more often. He's paid well.

So we were both wrong and you're still caping for Tepper just because.

It isn't my concern to go around and monitor and police every Panthers fan with a YouTube channel or a podcast there are dozens of them. But if you however want to make it your mission to take a dive in front of any instance criticism is directed toward the team decision makers do your thing.

Pretty sure that was some random guy. Some of ya'll really will go to any lengths to shield Panthers mgmt. Weird.

They really have a bunch of Paul Blarts going around shaking down their own fans like they're a burden. Just absolutely embarrassing.

Should have already been prioritizing it. You're only as good as your depth and we already let a productive pass rusher walk. Instead we have sat on our hands. Probably stuck with what we've got minus a possible addition or two after cuts.

This is what we need. Thank you for everything Sam.

Fug him.

He hit the same injury wall as other running backs before him. The league has shown why you do not sign backs to huge second contracts. This team has already learned from that mistake. Not only did we repeat it we did so with no quarterback in place. And if you need further evidence why you do not pay running backs all that money on a second contract take a gander at the top 5 on spotrac and tell me how many playoff wins those teams have the last few years outside of Derrick Henry who finally hit the injury wall too. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/running-back/

Three consecutive 5 win seasons and a head coach that is 3-9 in his division. The huddle and the overall fanbase is only a reflection of the team. We hope the Panthers will be better but for many people that's not enough until we live some real results that are attached to wins. If the Panthers had been a scrappy team that had actually been building the right way the last 3 years you might see less hostility and more positivity. But instead we backed up a cash truck to an oft injured RB and acquired two of the worst starting quarterbacks in the league two years in a row. Welcome to Carolina.

Getting a little angry now are we? It's okay you'll settle in with Sam's new CFL team fans just give it some time.
