Have you accepted that the season is over yet?

Yesterday was officially it. Cam getting sacked on 4th down is a microcosm of 2016 in a nutshell. A giant letdown with hope in place and an opportunity. With literally everyone winning in the division, including Crab Legs beating the Seachickens. We play that same Seachicken team this week. There is a very good chance we finish 4-12, and with a top 5 pick, i'd let Stew go and get Dalvin Cook b/c he's worth the price of admission. I don't know how well tackles stack up in the draft, but knowing DAVE, he'll reach on another defensive tackle.

Just snakebit this year

I've realized the playoffs were out for a while.  I mean, I've hoped and lied to myself.  Deep down, I knew we were just not good enough this year.

I agree 100% with us being snakebit.  Last year, those plays came our way.  This year, when it was time to make a play, we didn't.  The ball was just inside the defenders fingers, the ball bounced a few inches the wrong way, the move was just short.  It's been an entire season of being close, but not close enough.

But, maybe we can finally experiment with the playbook now.  Bring in some young guys, loosen up, and just try some new stuff.  As fans, let's enjoy the games for what they are.  It's a heck of a lot better than not having a team!  By a mile!

I threw in the towel on this season after watching us lose to the Saints.. I got intrigued to come back until Kansas City happened.. I said we have to win against Oakland and Seattle for me to even give myself a glimmer of hope.. When we lost last night - it gave me a peace about the year.. I still support the team no matter what, but I won't be getting sad about a loss or happy about a win.. we are dun this season

No, not really. Are playoff hopes dead? Yes. But I still enjoy watching football and playing the role of spoiler. Sure as hell beats long months of zero football. 

Exactly.

I sometimes wonder how long some of these fans have been following the Panthers and sports in general. 

Dissapointing and mediocre seasons happen more times than not but there is ALWAYS something to cheer for and look forward to.

    • Their use of the phrase questionable QB situation fits perfectly. He is stuck, for the moment at least, in a situation with Bryce that he can't really get out of. There have been improvements for Young, but he hasn't been a world changer. He had horrible coaching first year and was saddled with a broken down remnant of what had been an afterthought team anyway. There's one year left to keep him on the cheap with the idea that if he cranks out a great season, we've got first dibs on him for the next. If he tanks out, then off to free agency Young goes to either a QB whisperer-type situation or becomes a fairly battle tested back up QB. And we get something to add into our compensatory picks formulation. This is a make or break year for Young, but not for Morgan or Canales. 
    • If they lose the ECF in wimpy fashion, like anything less than a Game 7, its time to can Rod. 
    • Do you people really give no credence to the fact that Carolina’s went almost two weeks between games while Montreal played an intense seven game series that just ended Monday? That break was too much to be ready to go, and it showed.   The Canes pressed in the first, likely from overzealousness to prove the layoff wasn’t too much. once the Canes settled into their game without pressing, the game was much tighter. Every year, posts in the Panthers forum question how little the starters play in the preseason? Why is that? Because we all know not going at game speed against an opponent can lead to a slow start when the games turn real. Even with prior ECF disappointments, I’m going to hope last night was more akin to starters not playing in the preseason.
