Panther's biggest problem this year and solutions

I know that people are commenting on topics looking for problems and scapegoats. We all know how bad Sunday night was and as a diehard panthers fan for the first time EVER I turned off a Panther's game. I was disgusted with how we played and coached. The only people that cared were Kuechly, TD, and Olsen. As a HS football player who has been to a state semifinals and gone 1-11 the year after. I have a very good feeling what the problem is with this team this year. It is definetly the lack of leadership in the locker room from the players and from the coaches. It is also the awful coaching that has cost us. You know there is a problem when an injured player is the one who has to talk to the referee about a bad call. Rivera is an AWFUL coach. Yes an AWFUL coach. His lack of knowledge for the HC spot is obvious. He has/had Cam, Smitty, Kalil, TD, Kuechly, Gross, and Olsen's greatness over his tenure. He has been very lucky to be where he is. The 12-4 season was all player leadership that led it and complete luck down the stretch of games. 7-8-1 season was a bad schedule, luck, and a 3rd string QB in the WC round. Last season was a lot of great plays and moments from the PLAYERS. Not coaches, PLAYERS. Bad coaching caught up to us against Denver and almost caught up to us a lot last year. This year we aren't getting away with the coaching mistakes and bad gameplanning like we did last year. Call it missing Norman and Oher. I call it bad coaching. Movements and injuries happen to everyone. You can't pull out excuses for those you have to deal with the hand you've been given. The KB injury didn't affect us last year on offense. Why would injuries do different this year? Bad coaching. Shula and Rivera needs to go. McDermott needs to be on the hot seat at DC. I see solutions but we will need to wake up the locker room in the offseason by cleaning some players and coaches out.

1: Clean out the locker room of cancers and bad players. Simple really, Toblert, KB, Oher, and Remmers all need to go. (Nothing against Remmers he is just not talented at tackle.) KB needs to go 100%. He has a bad attitude on the field and doesn't put in effort at all in any plays. I say trade him for a draft pick or 2. Oher is retiring so we don't need to worry about that I say he needs to go just simply cause he needs to reitre. No reason in risking your life over another year or 2 of football. Tolbert is pretty self explanitory. He is just plain bad and has no want to play football. You can tell whenever you watch him on the field. 

2: Clean out the coaching staff of bad coaches and cancers. Fire Shula and Rivera. Put McDermott on the hotseat for DC since his defense has been trash all year. Sign Norv Turner for OC and Go after Josh McDaniels for HC. He awoke the Pats offense again when he got there. Maybe he can do the same for a talented Panthers team as HC. He also is a stable coach who can let Cam be Cam and not be nazi about anything (Like Rivera.)

3: Address simple needs in FA and Draft. Resign Norwell and Turner. Tag KK. Release Boston. In the draft we need OT's, a WR, RB, and a S. DE isn't a huge issue but can be fixed temporarily in FA. Also a OT signing would be good. Start D Williams at RT and an asset we aquire at LT. (Make sure that it is a good LT.) Maybe also sign a WR for depth and competition. 

4: Put the Panther's logo at center field instead of the NFL logo. Richardson needs to let the NFL know that he ain't taking no more bullcrap. Also I would love to see that perfect Panthers logo at the 50. 

These solutions may take a year or 2 to kick in. But at the end we will be a contender again (Hopefully.)

take Remmers for example.  Our problem isn't Remmers is on our roster, it is we ask him to start.  Biggest issue is we have depth level talent we expect to start.   If we have depth level caliber talent starting that also means our depth is weak too.

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers
