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.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
