Number 1: Life is not over, there is nothing you can do about what is going on in the preseason, but lets relax, take a deep breath and count backwards from 5 (if you can)

Number 2: I understand how people think about the defense and I totally agree, but this is the first year of this installed defense so take a deep breath and count backwards from 4 (if you can)

Number 3: We have alot of our main playmakers sitting out until the regular season so lets wait and see before we go off the deep end; Oh and take a deep breath and count backwards from 3 ( if you can)

Number 4: The Dt situation doesnt look good but we might trade for or sign a couple of good replacements so take a deep breath and count backwards from 2 (if you can)

Number 5: Jake Delhomme is our quarterback, he is shoddy at times but he is improving and honestly the options behind him are pretty grim including Matt Moore (most of the huddle's savior) so lets wait till the regular season before we jump off the deep end.

Take one more deep breath and count backwards from 1 (Idiots)

I honestly have no clue ...i guess forgetting to tackle and playing off an extra yard is part of the new scheme...im just sick of all the freakin doom and gloom threads..but if u guys think this is a worthless thread then lock it for all i care

Now I'm not a doom and gloom guy but realistically, I can't agree with the kool aid guys either. "Theirs nothing too see here" , "It's only Preseason" works when your 2nd team is f'n up not your 1st team. Now I still think we have too much talent too have a bad season. Plus the running game on offense is great. But they have alot work too do on Def. Not just trying too find player too play a weak position for us but also having too change philosophy. I'm sorry but Fox (while being a great coach) has not shown the willingness too change or adapt during a game or a season.

The gloom and doom thing around here is really starting to piss me off. You have got to have some faith in the franchise. Its preseason, and yes our team has issues every team does. But just because Peppers doesn't register 6 sacks a game, Jake doesn't go 32/32 340 yds passing, we don't go 16-0 and win the superbowl every f**kin year doesn't mean we all have to poo and piss ourselves crying why we did or didn't make certain moves in the offseason. poo happens guys and if you don't think Fox and Hurney are doing whatever they can to improve this team than you are not a panthers fan. Sometimes you have to roll with the punches and believe.

We have good players on this team, we have a good coach and a great GM I have faith that the issues will be worked out. No one could have anticipated Kemo getting hurt. And yes I know that DT was an issue before hand but I am positive that they were banking on getting a DT before Kemo's injury and now it is an emergency. We will get help they are not that blind. Either they get some one or the gameplan will change.

And let me just say that I am not a big fan of everything Fox does, things could be better. Our D could be more aggressive, Jake could play smarter, we could implement the TE and 3WR in the offense more. But you know what? For all that soft ass scheme, and conservative offense, we managed to get 12 wins out of it. You can say we won that all on player talent, but don't take away all the credit from the coaches.

And all indications show we are making some of those changes, especially more use of our TE's.

      Most hated teams

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
