How do you know that? Cincinnati's roster was awful last year and I'd say they turned it around quick. They even still have some glaring holes. There are other examples as well.

All these guys will flip the switch and be "optimism posters" as soon as we have a winning streak, and deny they ever hated the team, it's a huddle trope. The same doomsday people in this thread were 100% behind Darnold and Rhule after week 3, go look up their post histories

Cam only played like a franchise QB from 2012-2018, so in that time frame, yes the team was pretty good

We are only a worse destination on the doom and gloom huddle. Getting a franchise QB cures all ills. We are better built to win than Seattle. It’s either us or Philly imo

The Tepper hate is way overboard on here. He's only had the team a few years, he did the right thing by not immediately making changes like a lot of owners do but evaluate the current regime, he's been aggressive in trying to get a franchise QB according to sources and doesn't mind paying any amount for the coaching staff. He took a gamble on Rhule (who was a hot coaching candidate btw) and possibly lost, and now he's a "football dumbass"? Is there anyone on here that really could have done better? Almost all of you would have hired Rhule and exactly all of you were orgasming over the Joe Brady hire.

He's too short. He's more in the Johnny Manziel, Geno Smith class of QB's. I would be livid if we drafted him at 6, especially with 3 generational OT's at the top of the draft and one of them is slated to fall to us

I'm sorry but you can't take a small QB that can't read defenses and is a one read and throw player. Everyone compares him to Jalen Hurts and the Eagles are going to have to move on from Hurts soon because he has the same issue. Its way too easy to game plan for and it would be impossible to try to win in the playoffs with that type of QB. Cam was an athletic unicorn that only comes around once in a blue moon, Willis isn't that. To me Willis is like a Geno Smith level player.

I honestly wish they would trade CMC, tank the next two years, and start clean with a #1 overall QB and 150+ million in cap in 2024. Enough with the wasted and dead cap dollars. Ian Thomas' contract was ridiculous for his output

Then have free agency 4 weeks after the end of the Superbowl Waiting 11 weeks after the Superbowl for the draft is very excessive "My Ideal NFL offseason plan if I was commissioner" Superbowl first Sunday of Febuary Free Agency/Trades first Monday of March Draft last Thursday-Saturday of March Rookie/Undrafted/Tryouts minicamp first two weeks of April After minicamp players get mandatory 12 weeks vacation (veterans get about 5 months after Superbowl) Training camp third monday of July (18th this year) 4 weeks of training camp with no preseason games 2 preseason games, 1st preseason game 3rd Saturday of August 2 weeks between second preseason game and first game of season

As much as the huddle will crucify the pick, Thibs would be the logical choice. The only thing they can't do is draft a CB.

The draft being this late is so stupid. Put it in March, NFL. 6 weeks after the Superbowl is plenty of time to draft prospects, the NBA does it 3 weeks after the finals and every team is already scouting prospects all year anyway. The NFL needs new leadership.

The LS pick was indefensible. During the draft everyone here was clamoring to take Trey Smith. Everyone on ESPN said take Trey Smith, he's too talented to pass up and its worth the medical risk. We needed a OG in the worst way. Its the sixth round. Yet we take a long snapper that not only did we not need, but probably wouldn't have been drafted. And of course Trey Smith goes on to be a very good guard his rookie season.

Campbell is hearing the same thing as well and he's called the last 4 1st round picks But there is a very good chance that 2 DL and 2 corners go before us so its not gonna be a reach

Wow, what an atrocious color scheme. There are so many underused color schemes in color theory and you go with burgundy, carolina blue, and gold? Yuck

There's a high chance Flores is our next coach if Rhule flounders next year, this is just a transition position.

Campbell is still saying we are targeting offensive line at 6 and not QB, whoever slides out of Ekonwu, Neal, or Cross

FWIW Campbell is still calling us drafting whoever drops out of Ekonwu, Neal or Cross so it lines up with Panthers using trade/FA for QB

We have a decent team and a great pass D I think our D's main problem was constantly being put in bad situations and on the field way too much Really we are playoff-caliber everywhere except QB and OL I'd say 9-10 wins with Stafford.

We made it twice with feet smelling, good-ole boy hirin' Jerry Richardson of all people. Dramatic much?

They cross posted that. But what are they supposed to do? They can't exactly be negative on social media. As for Darnold, they struck out on all the other options and all of us here had that 1% of hope that Darnold just sucked on the Jets. They took a gamble at lost. They'll likely keep gambling until they find that franchise QB (please god not Pickett)

Believe it or not the huddle doesn't represent all Panthers fans. You guys are crotchety old men that expected a playoff season with Sam Darnold at QB and then come on here every day and bitch about Rhule in every freakin thread. Panthers have plenty of kids/teenage fans

Cincy was just too young and inexperienced on those last two drives. To go from losing for years right to the Superbowl is very impressive though

Likely against the Bucs, only four teams have clearance to play in Germany (Carolina, Tampa Bay, New England, and Kansas City) https://www.facebook.com/CarolinaPanthers/posts/5169154243097540 (they edited their original post to look less conspicuous) ESPN story on NFL playing in Munich in 2022: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/33253033/germany-host-first-ever-nfl-regular-season-game-2022
