Are we missing veteran locker room leadership?

This is one of those intangible gut feeling theories, but I really feel there is something to be said about the presence of stand up dudes like Roman Harper, Jerrico Cotchery, Jared Allen etc.... In the locker room.

All of them were the type of dudes that would have stayed for peanuts, would have came off the bench and also played any position you asked them to.

What do you think

personally I think its a mental issue with the players.  I think they believe when the team let Norman walk and replaced with 3 rookies, and hardly made any moves to make the team better than last years, not for the future, just better than last years, that management was not concerned with repeating as NFC Champions.  They may feel, as some fans do now, that management sold them out.  Just like us, players do not always understand long term plans.

We have all the veteran leaders we need.

Next.

It's a mindset. Every team we face will give us their A game. We have not brought our A game to any game so far this season.

We are now the hunted. We haven't figured out what it takes to get back to the level we were last year.

They're missing leadership in their coach. 

We have leadership in that lockerroom. They may have checked on the coaches and management for whatever reasons. I agree with the above poster, once they let Norman walk without a solid replacement it came off as if they didn't care. They did nothing to help what was already here and its showing. They feel played.

On Panther Talks tonight they were talking about how, just need time to gel...never hear that from the Patriots. It's becoming an excuse I'm not buying anymore.

Ron gets so many passes it's making my head spin.. he literally has become john fox 2.0 now.. he will milk the poo out of his superbowl appearance just like fox did.

Coleman is not in position himself to sit there and line up the secondary. CJ has checked out on the D-line as he has stopped playing for a big contract. Cam Newton has shifted focus to the food truck, clothing line, UFC, Nickelodeon business, it's as if he is preparing for life after football despite having 10 years left in the NFL at minimum. 


Just log off, would you?

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.

      I mean, our TE room does suck but we had other pressing needs and no surefire upgrades in the draft. I was surprised at how many TEs went in the first three rounds. I think most everyone was. You want a guy who projects at least as a guy who has the potential ceiling to be a starter in those rounds and I didn't see 11 of those in this draft. Off the top of my head, I think that's how many TEs went in the first three rounds. It was in that range. That's roughly 10% of the overall picks. Definitely did NOT see that coming with this TE class.
