Reasons to feel great about next season

I never start threads, but I think this is important--You already know this stuff, but it may help to frame the situation at this time.

 

We just went toe-to-toe with the World Champions in their house.  They beat us by attacking our rookies and forcing a few turnovers.  Next year, they will not be rookies.  Next year, we will have a LT and another WR threat.  Next year, we beat them. Next year, we beat a lot of people.

 

About a third of the players who contributed was composed of rookie players (Brown, Norwell, Glanton, Ealy, Boston, Benwikere, Turner).  Of those somel were undrafted (Brown, Norwell, Glanton).  We had some overachievers, bargain-basement free agents like Remmers, Love, Cole, and Horton.   These players were assembled out of necessity due to some terrible contracts, dead money, and a cap deficit over $16m just 2 years ago. 

 

Then there were players on the roster whose talents were discovered.  Colin Jones, in my opinion, could be a pretty strong SS.  I think they should look at him there anyway.  Josh Norman stepped up and has become a strong CB.  All gained experience this year. 

 

We get everyone we want to return back next year.  In fact, most of our contracts are set through 2016, with the exception of Cam.

 

So what are our needs?  LT, WR for sure.  DT, RB, CB, S depth. 

 

Expect us to become elite in 2015.   These players are experienced now.  They are no longer rookies, bargain-basement free agent nomads, or bench warmers.   

 

The future is bright.

The future is bright as long as we get rid of Shula, Rogers, and Dorsey.

 

Why Dorsey? I think Cam was 10x better in the pocket tonight than last week. Dorsey had a lot to do with getting Cam be a lot better...

 

The problem is it came against the number one defense in the NFL.

I said the same thing. This game was the best experience you can hope for young players to have. On the road, in the playoffs, against the defending world champions in the toughest place to play in the NFL. They likely won't face anything that tough again - unless we go back to Seattle in the playoffs.

I would keep the qb coach.    This week,  Cam was somewhat comfortable in the chaos..  He was avoiding 1 to 2 defenders flying at him,  stepping up into the pocket.    Going through his reads.             

 

 

Just replace Shula and I would be happy.

Ramsdell > Dorsey

 

Idk what the fug is his role in this organization but he should be the QB coach. Next get an OC that he can be matched up

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
