Winning ugly... it's our thing. And I finally accept it

The first four weeks of the season, I was insanely frustrated because we weren't blowing out teams we should blow out. But guess what? We won all those games. And we're still winning games. And we haven't lost any games yet this season. Would it be nice to blow someone out and play flawlessly? Of course it would. But I've finally accepted the fact that, as long as we win... who cares how we do it? All that matters is the W. And we have six of them so far this season... along with ZERO losses. So keep on winning ugly, loves of my life. Because you're WINNING. And that's what's most important.

We play a slow game, via Defense and Running the ball.   the good news is that it will keep us in every game, bad news is it will keep the Other team in the game, but unless they can run the ball better then us or play defense better then us, it's not going to matter and we will win.  

So far we havent played anyone that has been able to dictate the game to us, we've been the team that's been setting the pace. I'm curious to see what happens when we play Green Bay, our Defense is sneakly elite, we have 4 players on Defense that should be leading the NFC voting(Short, Norman, Luke, Davis), and that's a scary level of talent considering.

    • Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.
    • It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter. 
    • The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
