Perspective.

Ok everyone. I know it's the end of the world and with our upcoming games we are doomed to lose every game.

Well, not really....

Everything that is wrong with out team is very fixable and coachable.

We are 2-2. Not 0-4.

I would rather this team air it's dirty laundry and take it's lumps early in the season.

And sometimes you can't fix a problem until u know what it is. Well now we all know.

The football season is long, if we were clicking on all cylinders and still getting blown out then there would be cause for concern.

I have a good idea that this team will focus and turn it around.

Sometimes we as fans need to remember to be patient, it takes time for a team to find out who they are and the Panthers are no different.

So cheer up, it's not the end of the world. All will be well.

Byron Bell and Nate Chandler are not fixable.

You just have to get hot at the right time.  Hopefully the division stays weak and we can sneak in the last wildcard spot.  Getting in is all that matters.

[AKPantherFan]

All is possible. Dudes are in the NFL for a reason... Just need to play better.

We need some fire on this team. On both sides of the ball. When we find it, things will change and we all will know it.

The NFL is all about getting hot at the right time, look at all the Giant Super Bowl runs and win Green Bay won...started atrocious and rallied, it's about being healthy late in the season....that being said the Oline has got to get it together somehow some way or we won't compete

[chknwing]

just win the division wildcard is not necessary

[AceBoogie]

Two straight blow outs is cause for concern.

If Mark Barron hadn't dropped that INT near the end of the Tampa Bay game, we may be sitting at 1-3 all over again.

 

Obviously the season is not over by a long shot. But we do not have the emotion we did last year.

 

Rivera's job is safe now, and he has got to find a way to fire up the team. Luckily we play the Bears here at home.

Ron has always finished the season strong.  The two wins early may just be what gets us in the playoffs.  As stated many times before, 2-0 in conf and 1-0 in div (which doesn't seem too hot right now).

[Argus Plexus]

There are no excuses. Getting completely dominated in every aspect of the game twice in a row is plenty reason to be worried. Though we ARE only 2-2. The sky hasnt fallen but we need a win BAD.

The problems on defense are fixable. It seems like there is a lack of fire. The safety play has been suspect, but overall, the defense can salvage these past two games.

On offense, there needs to be a change of scheme. Quick passes to keep Cam upright. Quick screens and routes. Every team has weaknesses, they just mask them better than the Panthers have the past two weeks.

I know the Panthers MO is establishing the run, but we've seen the offense move better when Cam drops back and is slinging the ball all around. I'd like to see this more, but with less long developing routes.

The o-line problems at both tackle spots can't be fixed... These guys would be.bench warmers on any other team.

our running back issues can't simply be fixed, we.can't keep anyone healthy.

our defense is simply not getting pressure with four w/o Hardy, this is exposing our weakness in the secondary.

[AKPantherFan]

Folks fail to realize the difference between being an average team and a great team is very small. We by no means are an average team, were just playing that way.

[Harris Aballah]

My biggest concern is the ST's. Each time we had a chance to make a stand and get back in the game, our ST's has just out right handed the ball back to our opponents. Football is a momentum game. And everytime we get some, they give it back to the other team. Of course we have issues with RB's, but the St's have been our death nail in each of these blow outs.
