Alright...lets get to it.

1) Delhomme DID NOT lose us the game!!! I am so fricken tired of hearing how its his fault because of his 1 pick on a 4th down. Honestly guys, im very very proud of his performance. Its not easy to do that after 2 horrific games.

Plus, usually fox would kick the field goal on 4th down. if we did then everyone would complain about being to "conservitive". Hell, all the atlanta guy had to do was knock the pass down and then no one would be complaining. Stats are becoming to important to people when they shouldnt.

Why blame delhomme, when he had 1 TO? Williams had a TO during a big drive too but no one blamed him? So who is to blame?...

2) The blame goes on the Defense....No Pass Rush, Horrible Coverage, and even our special teams on kickoff hardly helped at all. Idk how many times Ryan threw a 5 yd out and got 9 yards out of it.

3) This was a horrible Ref crew...im not blaming our loss on this...but it could help if there wasnt that BS PI call on Gonzalez. I also don't know how many times the refs were generous in spotting the ball for the Falcons, also the numerous holds/false starts that wern't called.

4) Look guys..i know a loss isnt good. but take a look at this...Last week we had hardly over 100 yards of offense...delhomme threw for over 300, and williams, stewart and smith all were on fire. I felt deangelo and stew should have gotten the ball at least a couple more times. but still, our offense Rebounded. thats big. Also, we are forgetting that losing by 8 to a 2-0 Atlanta Falcons team with new additions on Offense and Defense isnt that bad. We played very hard against a playoff team.

So basically...In order for us to get a must win before our bye week next week against Dallas...our D needs to step it up. Jake has his swagger back, and williams and stewart are on their way back to shape.

Let us all try one thing...Stay positive for this whole week. It helps. Remember...its only Week 3 for us now. We could go 14-2 for all we know. its the nfl...anything can happen. go panthers!

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      Tanking in the NFL isn’t really a thing and anybody wanting to bring the rigged lottery to the NFL has an ulterior motive.

      Ravens safety out for year. Torn Achilles… Panthers may need to do something

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I understand where you're coming from, but we need another safety IMHO. Other positions, especially on defense, dont have ideal depth, but to me at least S is the one position we can't stand pat at even when thinking about the future

      100%. Nick Scott was awful last year. Like, even for a franchise that hasn't historically invested in that position, it stood out for how awful it was. If he sees meaningful snaps at S again we're cooked.  Maybe he has value for ST, but I certainly hope we can upgrade. Jordan Fuller, who was by all accounts an Evero guy, was almost as bad. Xavier Woods was bad, but not complete garbage. Still did not want him back. Those 3 guys seriously may have been the worst S group in the NFL. And they all were brought in, especially Fuller, as good fits for this system. Everyone knocks the defensive line, and they deserve a lot of blame, too, but so, so many times our safeties inability to tackle let 4-5 yard runs turn into 10+. And it happened over and over and over again if you watch the film. Honestly, Demani Richardson was the only S by the end of the year I remember making positive plays. I have no issue with Richardson being in the mix and/or competing to be a starter, but we still need another S desperately IMHO who has actually played meaningful snaps in the NFL. The only caveat/excuse for our secondary was the fact our pass rush was nonexistent for large stretches last year. Maybe that helps with coverage, but I dont see how that makes any of these guys better at tackling.  I know it somewhat feels like piling on at this point, but I feel 100% confident in saying this was the worst tackling team in franchise history. The 70ish yard pass play we gave up to Jamarr Chase where he ran through and past everyone in the secondary has to be up there in terms of most embarrassing plays I've ever seen. I can't imagine how embarrassed Kuechly must have been watching from the booth... I think bringing back Evero was a mistake, but for a team that has had nothing but change over the past 5 years, I'm willing to see this through. I definitely think we added significantly to the floor of this defense with the additions we made. I dont think Evero has any further excuses if he cant field a unit that can at least somewhat hold their own. Fixing the safety play is going to be a big part of that.
