Eli recognizes in Cam a kindred spirit, I'm sure, as SEC guys, style of passing, and designated target/goat of the restless fandom.

When the pent up frustration is finally released, it feels gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood. Great pic, Zod.

Counting the preseason, the starting offense has scored how many touchdowns now? Two?

Indeed. I mean, we didn't attempt a SINGLE field goal. So the ONLY times in the game we even threatened to score on offense was the TD pass and D-Will's fumble. Twice... in a 60 minute NFL game. That ain't just good Seattle defense. That's PATHETIC Carolina offense. And, as Zod pointed out, the "numbers" look good... Cam completed 70% of his passes, didn't throw an interception, only sacked once, D-Will averaged 4+ yards per rush, etc. So why did we only threaten to score twice? I believe it's for the exact reasons Zod has pointed out. Sitting back, playing it safe, and hoping for the best is not usually the most successful of strategies when playing the league's best teams.

If you aren't here to read about and/or discuss the Carolina Panthers, why ARE you here?

I disagree. I know its counter-intuitive, but "playing it safe" against the better teams plays right into their hands.. They're already very good. Now you're gonna limit YOURSELF? Hell, they couldn't be more happy about that! To beat the good teams, you had better come out MORE aggressive rather than less. They've already got more talent and better coaching than you do. You want to back it down and not take risks? They're more than happy to accept that favor from you.

And I also see our rookie/try-out camp is sponsored by Pepsi.

Good gawd, Barner is ripped.

The Falcan'ts DL is fuggin' horrible. What did they do to improve that again? The Falcan'ts cut their mauler of a RT and replaced him with a second-year player who was a 3rd round draft pick. How did they improve their OL again? (Edit: The Falcan't starting center of the past 13 or 14 years also retired in the offseason and they are replacing him with a second-year player as well.) The Cain'ts have moved from a 4-3 defense to a 3-4 defense with no significant change in personnel. Who will play their 3-4 DE positions again? Who is going to be their 3-4 OLB? The Suc's did nothing to improve their non-existent LB corps. How did they improve their LB again? Every fuggin' team in the NFC South has flaws. You seem to agree that having a "good secondary" is the be-all and end-all of the game of football. Me? I tend to think it comes down to the trenches. I don't know if there's a more impactful DL in the NFC South than the one we'll have in Carolina this year. And with Kalils return, I think we'll be at least solid on that side of the ball if we can get just AVERAGE performance out of whoever plays RG.

Cam lives in so many herp-derpers heads I have no idea why they ain't charging him rent.
