If it weren't for that Bengal injury with 6 seconds left in the 4th quarter...

Man, this game was just so bizarre. Noone wanted to win it, even Olsen said it was just very awkward for him to go up to the bengals players and coaches after the game, what do you even say?!

This team is a 100% clone of the 2011 team. Cam is playing lights out again while our D and special teams is putrid. Ive gotta say, I will take 3-2-1 but we arent nearly as good as our record indicates, im frankly shocked we have a winning record, I still dont even know how we have a winning record

I agree. We are the worst division leader in the league. Steelers are one of the worst teams in the AFC, they got stomped on by the browns today and they whooped our a$$ at home.

I still think we win the NFCS since then whole division sucks. Just get in the tournament and get hot like the cards in 2008 ... or the giants in 07 and 11

This team is nothing nowhere near similar to the 2011 team.

Have you even watched this team this year? This team is identical the the 2011 team. Giving up big run plays on a consistent basis?! Check. Special teams playing putrid on both sides?! check. Cam passing the ball extremely well?! Check. Go watch the Lions game from 2011 then watch today's game, its identical minus the outcome and OT.

I think our saving grace this season is just more experience for Cam and Ron as well as Cam being more mature now than he was in 2011.

Cam is a lot better than he was then and even though the defense is struggling right now they aren't nearly as bad as the 2011 defense. Plus this years offense is a whole lot different then the 2011 offense.

110% disagree about the D not being as bad. They are just as bad as the 2011 D and at times worse. This D is hot garbage right now.

See, threads like this is why it's impossible to take the Huddle seriously. So much overreaction and focusing on irrelevant issues when the actual problems get completely overlooked because they'd require having more than rudimentary understanding of football.

 

i vote this comment gets chiseled into a statue outside of BOA

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
