2016 Panthers = 2004 Panthers?

Honestly, what this season has really been deciminated by is injuries. 

2004 is a season I bet most of you remember. It began with Steve Smith breaking his leg, Stephen Davis IR'd, then the RB fiasco, down to our 6th string tailback. Our oline was in shambles trying to reorient themselves, and was a disappointing end to a season after the '03 superbowl season looking poised for another run.

2016. Right now, our Oline has taken the RB curse of 2004, with Norwell the lone man at his natural position/not a backup. We lost our MVP QB for a game. Our RBs have taken a toll early on with Stew out a lot of games. Our secondary was down to special teamers and people signed off the practice squad. Luke wasn't in for Oakland.

Really, injury ridden seasons after a superbowl run. Now, sure, coaching is garbage, but still some have to consider what we could be if healthy.

    • My comments go back to what I would have done in 2023. That is really when everything veered off of what I thought was good and well. I wanted to keep Wilks, re-sign Darnold and Foreman, and trade down in the draft to take Torrance, Kincaid, Charbonnet, or Mims obviously depending on where they fell. Knowing what was coming the next draft class, that was the prudent thing to do.    I’d still take Warren over Tet, or even Matthew Golden over Tet. Bryce needs guys who get open because right now, no one on this roster creates separation forcing Bryce to be a pinpoint passer which is insane because he’s 5’9. Give me receiving options that create space.    they called him a Mini-Mahomes yet have done nothing similar to what the Chiefs have done to capitalize on those “traits”. It’s absurd. Give me a tight end who can back yard ball, a slasher at running back, a power back, and two 4.3 receivers with exceptional route running.    That’s how you build around what Bryce has done well. 
    • We should have traded down, taken Torrance, taken Charbonnet and Mims. Then gone defense. Re-signed Foreman and Darnold. If we sucked again, then you get a shot at Daniels, Maye, Williams, or Nix. You get to keep DJ Moore and stack a core of talent. 
    • What is it that Cam is supposed to do differently? He is a running back. Dart will learn to slide, and eventually he won’t be playing with PS elevation receivers so he won’t have to run nearly as much.
