Official Panthers - Dolphins GameDay Thread

This place seems pretty dead today. Either this whole Kelvin Benjamin thing scared away the bandwagon or they're already drunk.

Tomorrow morning will be busy... either with a caravan of bandwagons or a parade of self-flagellating mourners. Either way I'll be here to join the fun.

Jeez, posted two hours ago and not even on page two this place really is dead.

Hopefully no one believes we will absolutely tank this season.  At the end of the day as an integral piece as KB was football is played on the field, not on paper.

We still have the same (but improved) Defense that will hold teams to minimal scoring. Many other positions on Offense have improved from last year as well.  Assuming that to be the case around 17 to 20+ ppg should be enough to win a decent amount of games.

Agreed with the improvements, and I personally don't think the sky is falling. I just want to see a solid O line performance and the back 7 of the defense stand tall. Also interested in seeing the D linemen and what they can do and Shaq, of course. Please, Football Gods, no more injuries!

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
