Best way to describe this team now.. Hybrid of the 2013/2014 Panthers.

I think right now this team is right at the sweet spot of a solid and respectable team. I don't think we are quite as good as the 2013 squad that went 12-4 nor do I think we are as bad and lethargic as the 2014 team from last year.

I would literally put us right, smack dab in the middle of those two teams. In 2013 we had Smitty and Lafell which is miles better than our WR corp now, also had Greg Hardy which ironically enough our D overall might be a tad bit better now. But our offense was way better in 2013 than this year's offense.

Last year we had three Cam injuries.. Accident, ankle and ribs. Rivera's house burning, the HUGE Greg Hardy distraction and losing him and Byron Hell (no that's not a typo btw) 

So yea, ask me to describe this current Panthers squad right now? A hybrid of 2013/2014 which should be good for the 10-6 w/l range give or take.

I'm fairly positive no one asked you for your thoughts on the current squad. No one on this board anyways. You do make it very easy to take shots at you though. So there's that.

People may not be able to see it, especially those younger than their mid to late 40s, but we are similar in anatomy to the Steelers teams that encompassed the Steel Curtain, minus the receivers this year (which is big because it skews our beastly potential in the passing game as well as the running game). If we get that right, then perhaps we can have a good look at a Super Bowl while players like Olsen, Davis and Kalil are still playing at a high level.

It would be nice to have John Stallworth right now.

    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings. 
    • Because he won't be here next year, we aren't winning this year and we need to see if Renfrow or Horn can be that guy going forward. If Bryce isn't good enough to do poo without AT we need to find that out this year as well. I'm fine keeping him but his role needs to be slowly reduced throughout the year anyway so we know what we have for the future
