that' s what happens when you don't have an offensive line

And this is why I thought we would be a 9-7 team in the offseason at best. It's hard for our offense to improve when there is lack of talent on the line. How can the line improve anyway when they are just plain terrible? There's little to no hope for them. We knew all of this since March and we did dick about it.

It's not just the loss. It's the way we lost and who we lost to. They aren't a bad team but also not nearly as good as we made them look.

Week 3 is too soon to show how the teams stack up, and then you've got injuries to add in. Pittsburgh finished 6-2 last season. They look like a pretty potent team to me right now.

The o-line played horrible, no doubt. Maybe it's a lack of talent, but I'm not as sure yet as some of you.

 

The d-line played equally bad, and we know there is no lack of talent there.

 

Point is, maybe we just weren't ready for the Steelers for whatever reason. Maybe we overlooked them, maybe the coaches didn't prepare them right, or whatever, but we got our asses kicked all over the field on both sides of the ball.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
