Okay, it's officially time to panic...

Never been a big fan of hitting the panic button in preseason.

Heck, I won't even panic if they stink in week one.

that depends on what the stinking is. if it's the same thing we've seen in weeks one through four of the preseason, it indicates an intrinsic problem with the team, and many of the naysayers will have valid points.

But i don't see that happening - at least not to the degree that some on here seem to hope it will.

I was at the game tonight - it was abysmal.

The low point of the night was watching 8 Panthers defenders (most of them starters) getting their hands on the Steelers running back (a backup) and none of them brought him down... that was pathetic!

What about the high point of the night? The first series where the first team D stuffed the only drive by the first team O of the steelers 3 and out?

Not one mention of that in the observer article. Hmmm.

So, you go to the worst of the pre-season games to go to, and come out hitting the panic button.

So glad to have you on board!:rolleyes:

I find this ironic taking that you our panicing without the Panthers even playing one game yet, and your avatar says believe... maybe your only believing in D. Will?

They looked horrible against the Steelers last year in preseason also.

They always look horrible against the Steelers in preseason IIRC.

This team usually starts the season kind of discombobuated anyway. Even last year the first two games weren't pretty, they just got the W.

We'll see.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
