Bad weather would be a HUGE advantage this weekend.

Not only does this years team have a lot of practice with that as we played in a bunch of bad weather games, but it would take away any advantages the Cards have with their WRs vs our DBs

Bring on the snow and/or rain, please......

Welcome to the Carolina's in January.

Sometimes this happens in late Nov. through December. Always January and February. Cold wet icy soil. Makes for some old school football, and speed teams will suffer. This is big boy football. Leave your track spikes at home.

Conditions that fluctuate between 30 to 40 degrees in snow/rain conditions is what causes the soft turf. The lower layer of soil tends to stay frozen while the upper layer thaws causing the grass to give in the thawed layer and not the frozen layer below. This also leads to the top layer of soil becoming more saturated with water. Then if the temperatures drop a few degrees into freezing the upper layer of soil becomes slick and icy.

I do not think any other team in the league is in an area that has turf conditions like the Carolinas in the winter (maybe Tennessee). The Panthers practice outside on a field with those conditions.

Home field advantage!

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By TLGPanthersFan · Posted

      I have said if you out even an average QB into the offense we are averaging 25+ points a game. But that will never happen with Bryce under center.

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.
