Stop panicking, the defense was due a bad game, it happens.

Before tonight, Carolina's defense had held 13 of its last 14 regular season opponents to 20 points or fewer.
 
A string that good is nearly impossible to put together.
 
To put it into perspective, Seattle's defense, over the same time period, had only held 10 of its last 14 regular season opponents to 20 points or fewer.
 
Conversely, the Panthers have not won a game in which the defense gave up more than 20 points since the final game of 2012.
 
Since the start of the 2011 season, Carolina is 3 and 20 when the defense gives up more than 20 points. 
 
The defense will bounce back in a big way. 
 
We are going to win the NFC south.

Everything that could have went wrong for us tonight did go wrong. Literally. That is not an exaggeration, that is the truth. Penalties, turnovers, and all-around stupid play at the worst possible times.

 

The Steelers weren't that much better than us from a talent or gameplan perspective. We lost this game mostly by shooting ourselves in the foot. If Cam actually runs away from the pressure on that fumble, we don't inexplicably jump offside on the FG, and Philly Brown doesn't go full retard on the punt return, there's every chance we actually win.

 

This is the NFL and it's hard to beat even this league's crappy teams. Make as many mistakes as we did tonight and you'd be hard-pressed to beat even Jacksonville.

 

Chalk it up to a learning experience and move on.

I did not think it was possible to run on our front 7.

Was an amazing job by Pitts OL and running back.

Le'Veon Bell is scary good as a runner. I've been so used to watching backs run straight into our front but his patience and shifting ability to let blocks develop and find the running lanes was special. Don't think we've faced a running back like him in the regular season in awhile and it certainly caught us off guard.

Wasnt the defense fault that we couldnt score

 

Lol We let in 29 pts on Defense not counting the ST TD. Not giving the defense any blame is ridiculous when the other team was running all over us for most of the game. We failed in all three phases today, but after watching cams post game interview i am not worried that they will get this corrected and be ready for next week.

    • XL out in Min trying to get better.  These guys working hard to win!!! https://sports.yahoo.com/article/watch-bryce-young-unleashes-dimes-184519544.html
    • Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......
    • You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.
