Um ok.  In other news. Ive been telli g people all season it was weird that rivera kept comparing the panthers to the broncos that went to the super bowl then needed a year to regroup so to speak.  He mentioned that quite a few times.  I firmly believe this was tbe plan all along.  Get the rookies some experience and not waste money on high price free agents on a throw away season.  It would explain the non urgency by rivera and staff to win.

That makes sense, but do you think they would honestly "throw away" a season. Cam and Luke aren't getting younger know what I mean.

Don't think it was intended to be a "throw away" season but I don't think they expected to be back this year. If things bounce our way in those close games we'd be in great position to make the playoffs. That didn't happen, which sucks but there's definitely reasons to be excited about the future still.

I wonder if the thinking was that with KB coming back the offense would be more potent, so it could make up for the decline in the defense with throwing rookie DBs and scrubs out there. Or who in the hell knows what Gettleman was thinking, but I can't imagine he thought we'd be marching into the playoffs. Anyone could see the Remmers was easy to exploit in the SB. None of the o-linemen in the draft would have been an upgrade over Remmers? C'mon. We just had to have Worley and Sanchez? I was pulling my hair out in the off season. We CANNOT have another off season like 2016 or we're finished. Problem areas have to be addressed. You can't just close you're eyes and rub you big belly for luck. The decline has been shocking but you could see it coming. Not spending, letting a superstar walk, starting rookies, adding scrubs, you had a bad feeling. Still I wanted to be extremely optimistic. Nope. If it looks bad in the off season, then it's going to be bad in the regular season.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
