Pretty decent analysis of both our strengths and weaknesses, tenth is pretty fair until we see what those weak guys in those weak areas are going to give us

Sent from my XT1049 using CarolinaHuddle mobile app

I wouldn't say "those weak guys in those weak areas..." They are all question marks that we don't know whether they will be weak or strong (except for Bell, but he may not start, could start at left and be better, or improve on the right who knows). At WR we've got proven talents in Cotch, Avant and Underwood (who should be better than Ginn comparing their career history before coming to the Panthers) and a ? with KB. Chandler and Turner are pure ?s. Bell is weak but could improve. And our entire secondary is a ? except for Lester and White who have a lot of room for improvement and looked slightly above average last year (albeit playing behind the best front 7) and Godfrey who was a solid starte before his injury.

If we hit at even half of those ?s we go 12-4 or better. We'll see how it turns out, and camp and preseason will be a good indication.

Yeah, I did not mean it to sound that way, was distracted and should have proofread.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
