What have we done to get better since we were beat by Atlanta in Atlanta?

Is Cam gonna focus instead of hoping for a nice homecoming and looking for love from Atlanteans?

This is the classic trap game. 

 

trap game? We have not won enough to get trapped. This is a close contest that no panthers fan wants to admit.

Over confidence can lead to the exact same set of conditions as last year. Nobody wants to think of it as a trap game and that's OK but this team just lost to a team that just lost quite a few key starters. You can't mark this one down as a win. Panthers got work to do this week.

If they can't put Matty Ice on his backside, game over. If Cam is just too happy to be in the ATL and not focused on the task at hand, game over.

I think you are missing the point. You have to be above 500 for it to be a trap game. Truthfully we are more a trap game to the Falcunt than the other way around because they are 2-1.

The 2014 Packers started 1-2, including a 20-point blowout in Seattle and only putting 7 on the Lions. Aaron Rodgers told everyone to chill, the Packers blew out the Bears in Chicago the next week 38-17, and Green Bay finished the season 12-4. They narrowly lost to the Seahawks, again, 28-22 in the NFC Championship in a game they should have won.

The lesson?

I take solace in the fact that Ron Rivera led teams typically get off to a slow start (excluding last year).

I hoping more towards the 2013 regular season result then 2014. I think this season will go more towards 2013 results just because of the overall talent level of the 2016 squad and Cam was really beat up in 2014.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
