Is this the worst team in franchise history?

This is just about as much fun. Only difference is we are wasting talent this year.

 

We're not that talented.

 

We have it in a few spots (linebacker for example), but overall not so much.  Receiving corps doesn't scare anyone, running backs are aging, secondary is up and down and some of our best defensive linemen are missing.

I feel like perhaps I have a brain tumor each week I watch this team.

Watching this team is the equivalent of watching your friend get raped and tortured but when you ask them about it, they tell you they have never felt or been better.

I am just really afraid we have ruined Cam already....doesn't help that he seems to be a mental midget on the field and can't handle adversity.

I love the Panthers but at least in 2010, we knew we were going to have a top 2 pick, new coach, etc. Now we just hope that the people who are "coaching" are held accountable.

Smdh.

worst roster? not at all.

worst coached? yes.

most disappointing? definitely.

I'd argue that the 2006 team was more disappointing, and possibly 2004 before Smitty got hurt. We all knew last year was fluky and some regression was bound to happen, but the 04 and 06 teams had solid foundations and underachieved.

Granted, this team is awful, but no one in their right mind should have expected similar success after watching last year and this past off season. I do think it reasonable to expect them to at least be competitive, but the talent is clearly not there across the roster and the coaching sure isn't either.

I think Mr.Scott broke it down best, most teams are not loaded but there system compensates. We have a system that henders talent.

I'm not really sure. 2010 was horrid, I remember we could barely even pick up first downs. ZERO exciting plays EVER.  However I don't remember us getting blown out very often. (it may have happened luckily my brain has blocked it.)

 

This year we had a lot of potential, and we seem to be losing by 20 at the half each game.  The sad thing is....I'm barely exaggerating if even.

The 2010 team was the worst in NFL history I  believe. Clausen could have 10 seconds to throw and would still check down or throw it away. 

 

This is just supposition, right?  If I recall, the OL that year was so bad that we went entire quarters where the QB didn't have 10 seconds to throw combined.

 

This team may not be the worst in team history, but it's a contender.  

 

The performance of the coaching staff is as bad as I remember (don't forget the way we gave up at Cincinnati and Atlanta).

 

I'm not sure if a GM has had an off-season with this many decisions that turned out wrong, although when Capers was allowed to play GM he was certainly worse.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
