People like to waste their lives away complaining and whining about things that don't matter. If they want to live their lives in a negative way, then let them. I'm enjoying the win because at the end of the day that's all that matters

I guess another way to look at it...I shouldn't waste my life away whining about the whiners...

Good post though. This place is so full of negative people, but Jeremy Igo gives us the best Panthers content and coverage.

Guess we have to tolerate the bad in order to enjoy the good.

Maybe because we know we're going to have to be a lot better going forward. 

They sure didn't look great in all areas, and that level of production won't get it against most teams, but some of us like to celebrate even an ugly win before we get back to bitching about the areas of concern.

Hell hath surely frozen over. I agree with AceBoogie...

I'm as happy as can be that we won yesterday, but it was against the Jaguars. And we looked bad. Efforts like that might win us the next four games (emphasis on might) but come week 6, we won't stand a chance playing the same way we did yesterday

We certainly can play better football, but we won 20-9 to an improved Jags team, and that is with a touchdown to Olsen being taken off the board, and a WIDE OPEN would be touchdown dropped by Ginn.

I can understand wanting better football from our team, but the mood on this board when the game easily could have been a blow out is a little absurd.

I think it is mostly because it was Jacksonville.

Everyone thinks that Jacksonville is like playing some highschool team or something.

The truth is that they are pretty decent team and they have been getting better. Bortles is actually a pretty good QB, the reason he sucked yesterday is because he was playing the Carolina Panthers... Who came to their house and beat them with a nasty defensive performance. 5 sacks, forced and recovered fumble, multiple interception, pick6, multiple tackles for loss, allowed only 13 points, and with multiple team captains and dependable starters on the sideline.

Next opponent has to come to our house...

 

 

I'd love to see the Jags go on a winning streak now, but with the Dolphins, Pats, and Colts up next for 'em, it looks like an 0-4 start. I hope they're more than a walkover at least.

I'm betting most of the same 'experts' who picked us to lose yesterday will be doing it again this week. We'll likely have to start 4-0 to get respect.

I didn't realize we had no weaknesses to explore or to discuss must celebrate 13 point offensive showing vs the JAGS. 

Ginn dropped a sure TD pass that's worth discussing regardless of if we won or not and doesn't mean we aren't happy with a win.

Having Shula on or associated with the team in any way, shape, or form warrants discussion.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
