This is how many times we ran the ball the whole game. Even with the three and outs in the second half we are only down 6 points. We seem to abandon the run so quickly and I don't understand the play calling.

DWill will run the ball once, then they take him out, out JStew in. None of it makes any sense. DWill proved last year he can run the ball 25 times a game. That is why we won 12 games last year.

It's like the coaches just got out of coaching 101 class and have already forgotten everything they learned.

I can't imagine the anger and frustration that has to be growing in the locker room.

Also, the defense looked very aggressive the first half, then came out very passive. I mean WTF.

What is going on?!?!

I still don't understand the series in the 3rd quarter. Dallas punted the ball and we were down around the 8 yard line. Deangelo makes a 16 yard run on first down. The next play? A friggin bomb down the left sideline to Smith followed by two more passes and a 3 and out. Why not continue to run the ball? Use up some clock and run the ball. We were only down 6 at the f*ckin time. Frustrating stuff man.

Run the fuging ball.

Run the fuging ball.

One of the better RB's last year who is perfectly healthy and we don't use him... amazing

Not to mention a 1st round back up that gets 3 runs called.

2 weeks in a row now this team has been out coached. Dallas is a very average team.

There is nothing more demoralizing to a defense to know the other team is going to run the ball and the defense not be able to stop it.

If they just give the opportunity for DWIll and the OLine to get into a rhythm, we might see some progress.

Pathetic. I have always been a loyal fan and still will be, but something has to change. If I were DWill, I would be demanding the ball on the sideline. "Give me the Fcuking ball"

Agreed. That was the point in the game when I lost it. Totally disgusting.

Hey, they can keep rotating DWill and JStew, it works great. As long as you keep running. And running. And running.

There's the old adage that when you're behind, you pass to catch up fast. But haven't we seen both of Double Trouble break off 50, 60, 70 yard and longer runs? Aren't those just as effective in making a comeback?

Yanno, on paper, we have a fantastic game plan -- run the rock, run it again and take a shot at the end zone once in a while with the passing game. Why do we toss it out the window so often?

Why do we toss it when we're winning?

Can anyone tell me if Jeff davidson was this type of play caller in Cleveland?

I'm new to the Panthers, so didn't know Davidson came from the Browns. Fox also hired Scherer as his QB coach. Scherer is a Brown's cast-off. In case fox didn't' notice, the Brown's stunk.

    • Games been a snooze fest of sloppy play
    • ESPN's David Newton: QUARTERBACKS (2): Bryce Young, Andy Dalton A preseason muscle injury to Dalton's right arm could force the Panthers to keep Jack Plummer if the issue gets worse, but that currently doesn't seem to be a concern. For the first time since going No. 1 in 2023, there is no question that Young is the starter after winning two of his final three games last season with 10 touchdowns (7 passing, 3 rushing) and no turnovers. RUNNING BACKS (3): Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne Selecting Etienne in the fourth round out of Georgia makes veteran Raheem Blackshear a likely cut. Etienne has shown in the preseason that he is a capable option as a runner, in addition to being a returner, which has been Blackshear's primary responsibility since 2022. WIDE RECEIVERS (7): Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen, Jalen Coker, Jimmy Horn Jr., David Moore, Hunter Renfrow This is the most improved group on the team, so keeping seven initially makes sense. If the Panthers go with six it could make coach Dave Canales' favorite, Moore, expendable with Renfrow showing he's close to the level he played in 2021 when he made the Pro Bowl with the Las Vegas Raiders. Brycen Tremayne, who's had an excellent preseason, will be a tough cut. TIGHT ENDS (3): Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders, Mitchell Evans There is anticipation Tremble (back surgery) will be ready for the regular season after coming off the PUP list before the preseason finale, though he could still miss a game or two. Keeping him on the 53-man roster makes sense so she doesn't have to miss the first four games. OFFENSIVE LINEMEN (10): T Ikem Ekwonu, G Damien Lewis, G Robert Hunt, C Austin Corbett, C Cade Mays, T Taylor Moton, T Yosh Nijman, T-G Brady Christensen, G Chandler Zavala, G Jarrett Kingston Injuries to guards Lewis (strained shoulder) and Zavala (knee) plays a factor in keeping 10 instead of the nine predicted going into camp. The starting five returning from 2024 had a solid preseason, but the lackluster play of backups showed depth remains a concern. DEFENSIVE LINEMEN (6): DE Derrick Brown, NT Bobby Brown III, DE Tershawn Wharton, DE A'Shawn Robinson, NT Cam Jackson , DE Jaden Crumedy A shoulder injury that has kept fifth-round pick Jackson from making an impact means Crumedy could make it here. The biggest cut will be Shy Tuttle, who has 32 starts the past two years but little to show for it. Moving on from him will create $2.4 million in cap space that can be used elsewhere. LINEBACKERS (10): OLB D.J. Wonnum, OLB Patrick Jones II, OLB Princely Umanmielen, OLB Nic Scourton, OLB Thomas Incoom, ILB Christian Rozeboom, ILB Trevin Wallace, ILB Claudin Cherelus, ILB Jon Rhattigan, ILB Jacoby Windmon The release of ILB Josey Jewell (concussion protocol) at the start of camp required immediate attention, but Rozeboom has stepped up well. Depth remains a big question, particularly inside. Moving on from draft pick Bam Martin-Scott means he'll likely end up on the practice squad. It was time to move on from OLB DJ Johnson. Look for turnover beyond the starters here. CORNERBACKS (5): Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Chau Smith-Wade, Shemar Bartholomew, Corey ThorntonJackson has played well enough at times to ease the concern opposite Pro Bowler Horn. Thorton's play during camp has been a big surprise, but the overall depth of this group means there likely will be turnover. SAFETIES (4): Tre'von Moehrig, Nick Scott, Demani Richardson, Lathan Ransom The big question is how long it will take fourth-round pick Ransom to replace Scott as the starter opposite Moehrig. Also, don't rule out another experienced player being signed. SPECIALISTS (3): K Ryan Fitzgerald, P Sam Martin, LS JJ Jansen Big-legged undrafted free agent Fitzgerald out of Florida State may have solidified his spot over Matthew Wright with a 52-yard field goal in the second preseason game against the Texans. The other two spots are solid, but Carolina likely will keep an eye out for dependable veterans who end up being released.
