Thank God. 

 

Just listened to Grantland's preview from Mays and Barnwell and need a decent podcast to cleanse myself. Just a FYI for anyone who wants the Panthers section of Grantland's NFC South preview...Panthers section starts around 20 minutes, both have us going 7-9, laugh at the OL and say things like Norwell is a dude off the street, give more time to Foucault. Secondary is still trash (no mention of Bene or Norman), and they don't know if the DL is that good (at least for Mays).

Yet the Falcons are winning 9-10 games, and their OL and defensive issues could be fixed. Didn't bother listening to the Saints or Bucs love fest.

I can understand them predicting us to go 7-9, but for god's sake at least get the reasoning right.  If I was to make a Panthers 7-9 prediction, my reasoning would be lacking any starting caliber NFL WRs and an 0-4 stretch during murderer's row in weeks 6-9 just crushing the team's morale and confidence.

Unless we really have someone step up at WR, I'd honestly go with a 9-7 prediction right now.  On paper, there's not a worse WR corps in the league.

Great show as always

A foot injury to a 310lb man is being so overlooked.

I'm not convinced in Tolbert's value as a runner, but it isn't because of Lee Ward. He is not converting short yardage. The preseason was just Deja Vu from last year not scoring. If you asked people to say how many TDs Mike scored LY, few would've guessed zero.

Fans are questioning this because we are so terrible in the redzone and converting 3rd downs I don't want to waste carries. I don't care if he stays, just stop giving him the ball like it's 2013 when he's trending 2014. I think defenses have figured out if you just make a pileup in front of him he can't get through. Don't fight him straight up, just get to his feet.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      There was no reason to believe in either Cam or Jake as a top tier elite QB before those seasons either. Cam was an "athletic" QB in most people's minds and his passing skills were open for debate. And there was a bit to that as he was still trying to get that massive power in his arm tamed to be able to put some touch on his passes. And then, he did it. Missiles became bombs, the firing lanes became points of finesse. Cam grew up and leveled up, while still retaining the ability and drive to truck people whenever he wanted. And Jake... no one freaking believed in Jake except Jake himself. He got, and let's be honest with this, one chance in a losing game to make something out of his career. And he rose to the occasion like some kind of mythical hero and continued to do so for the season. He became a true leader for the team, and his gunslinger capabilities rehabbed Moose's career and created Smitty as a force in the league. Smitty went from a barker to a biter. But no one believed in Jake going in. And they trashed him on his way out. Now Bryce... who knows? I've seen some improvement. Maybe he finds his footing. His teammates seem to love and respect him and that means a lot. The game should be moving at his speed now. He has weapons available to him and maybe a defense that doesn't just roll over by the third quarter. And his coach seems to be moving this team in the right direction. Could he do it? It's up to him, if he can find the magic like Jake and Cam did. But don't doubt this, magic is really, really hard to find.
