We need work, but damn we're a good team

The title sums it up.

It's an interesting dynamic, watching this Carolina team play. On paper, I'm not sure we even look like that good of a team. Veteran castaways filling in in starting roles, no-name wide receivers, running backs who don't produce eye-popping numbers, a QB whose completion percentage hovers less than 55%. Yet, somehow, we're greater than the sum of our parts. This is a legitimate team, and the first one that I've seen in the NFL in years. You see it when guys like Trai Turner get into players' faces to get them off of Cam or Stewart. You see if when Olsen puts his heart and soul on the line. You see it when this team should be losing, with everything falling apart around them, rise up better than they ever were.

Sure, we need some help. The DEs will need to be watched to make sure they stay fresh into the playoffs, the health of Luke, Stewart's carries... All of it needs to be monitored. Yet, I honestly believe we're the best team in the NFL.

They surrounded cam and Luke with players that meshed with their personalities and talent. Kept veterans with high character and talent. And coached the poo out of them.

 

its obviously not as easy as what I just said but this team is realllllllly fuging special

 

super bowl or bust. I'm at that point now.

IF we play a complete game and limit our mistakes....no one can beat us.

Like seriously everyone should be afraid of this team when we play a complete game and don't shoot ourselves in the foot.

"Worst 8-0 team" or some other bullshit is likely what they'll say but its beyond obvious these clowns hate us because of our QB and small market....nothing would please me more than to go 19-0...

Do a drive by with some piss filled "water" balloons and let the ESPN studio crew have it.

I keep saying this every week but this team still hasn't played it's best football. CJ and Dwan will be back soon. 

I love this team though. What we do is difficult to stop and Cam Newton is probably the most underrated player the NFL.. The man is elite in his own category. 

I really think this offense will blossom down the road as Philly and Funchess gain more experience. Also Ted Ginn has the makings of a great WR. He just has issues. His speed is fantastic and he must be accounted for.

Dwan coming back will be big too.

Also give amini some love.  Stepped in and played well.

Never heard his name and Cam stayed clean.

very proud of Amini and even more proud to say I was wrong to fear him being in the game.

Yeah, people probably think I'm nitpicking when I point out all the missed opportunities by Cam, but just imagine if we can get to the point where we take advantage of all of those plays and start putting up 35-40 points on a consistent basis.

 I love this team, but we can be some much better its'  not even funny. If Cam can clean up his footwork and start making those plays, this team will be unstoppable. And that's all it is with him...he makes great audibles and great decisions on where to go with the ball, he just misses sometimes because of poor mechanics.

Really promising how we're able to win various kinds of games, if you'd said this morning we'd be involved in a shootout i wouldn't have liked our chances, even with their defensive injuries, we still need to sort out the 4th quarter but our offense is able to win us games even through the air

    • Jalen Carter came into camp out of shape too. That was part of the reason he dropped considering he was thought of as the better defensive player pre-draft activities. It’s not a good sign when you don’t look great but it’s definitely premature.
    • We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.
    • Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
