How did we win 12 games last year?

The schedule was definitely easier last year. But its not like we didn't beat some good teams.

We beat Arizona early in the year

We beat the Falcons

We almost beat the Giants without Kemo and Lewis

Despite the fact that it took a miracle pass, we beat the Chargers IN San Diego

We swept the Bucs (torched their run defense for more TDs in one game than they had let up all year)

We defintely didn't have a tough schedule last year but we played really well as a team. I don't have a problem with Delhomme playing out the rest of the year and up until this point haven't had a problem with him being the starter going into the following seasons. However, I know I'm not the only one that is fed up with the fact that we never have a contingency plan for who is to take over later.

Yea....easy schedule. Our hardest games...we lost. Lost to all the teams with winning records we played (playoff teams...Tampa falling apart doesn't count). This year...we don't have it so easy. We played arguably the best team in the NFC in Week 1 and we showed we aren't even in the conversation for playoffs this year.

This is easy. WE GOT LUCKY. We just as easily could have been 8 and 8, maybe 7 and nine. And an easy schedule played into that as well. Lets see.

* We beat the chargers with no time left

* we beat the packers with less than a minute left

* we beat the saints with a field goal with no time left

* the worst was the lions win....just as easily could have lost that one

Thats definitely 4 games last year that we could have lost just as easily.

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy we won them but I think it shows who we are as a team. Get the lead, then play not to lose. Thats a Foxy thing.

good teams win those games, example last Monday night.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      Plenty of us even the outspoken critics have give him credit for the impressive plays he's made. The box score watcher claims do make me laugh though because it's not as if Bryce is some kind of unicorn at the position where there is an untold story in the stat line. That's also very indicative of where we're at though on the whole conversation isn't it? I mean Bryce Young hasn't done anything whatsoever that we haven't seen UDFA Kyle Allen do and we only gave that guy 12 starts. Bryce Young has had nearly 4 times that and there are still some people who are basically resetting the clock between games. And these same people cannot understand why others are fed up. We've never seen this level of benefit of the doubt for any other Panthers QB based on a full picture of career starts. At this point the meat of Bryce's game is what it is. In order for Bryce Young to have a big day he needs either the other team to shīt the bed or he needs everything on our end to go perfectly with excellent pass protection virtually at all times. But how rare is that? How many times have we just blown the doors off teams with Bryce Young at QB and when that happened how did we accomplish it? There's a reason even the most impressive wins from Bryce Young have always been within one score. The limitations of his game are what they are regardless of how talented the moving parts around him may or may not be. Nothing in that regard has changed or will change. It is what it is.

      Big win for the Tarheels today.  I think they already have more Q1 wins this year than they've had the last three years pre-conference.   Still need to learn to close out games, but their size and stretch ability is going to be a problem in April.  GDTBATH
