Their defense also is another questionable spot at DE. Ealy isn't the monster they thought he was, and their standout rookie Derek Rivers is also out with an ACL.

Pretty sure they never thought Early was a "monster".

 

But this at least gives us just a glimmer of hope now instead of no chance.

Wise and Rivers are out.  Ninkovich retired.

We have a better two deep on paper.  Sounds insane to the national hacks, but our core was 15-1 two years ago and is substantially better now.

Brady was a 6th rounder so I get it-where you're drafted isn't the end all be all, but if it's even a smidge true we've got a more talented team.

That's supported by stats. Per ESPN, the Patriots haxe a .810 win percentage in games he's played, and they're.600 without him since he joined the team in 2009.

Regardless, it sucks that the guy went down like that, especially in a preseason game. I'd rather get a win over them at full strength, but of course will take the W....period.

There's been a lot of talk about Cam's chemistry with different receivers, and how to build more, particularly with the new guys. If you want a peek at a great example of why Brady and Edelman are so good together, check out the Sound Fx videos of the last Superbowl. There are a couple of moments in there that will make you stop and think. Examples: Edelman pumps up Brady by pushing him to get the win for his mother (who had cancer), and he essentially predicted the comeback, telling Brady they were going to make a great story, and afterwards said, I told you so (in a nice way). Opponents or not, Pats or not, it was good stuff.

We won our last head to head.  Our arch nemesis had a 25 point lead on them.  We always had a chance, and a good one at that.

      With a better coach we would have 10 wins already With better receivers we would have 10 wins already With better pass protection we would have 10 wins already With a better defense we would have 10 wins already

      27th in PF 25th in yards May not be bottom 3 but it is still close to the bottom.    2024: 23th in PF 29th in Yards Still bottom of the league even after Bryce came back.  I am pretty much resigned that if the Panthers want to win a SB with Bryce they are gonna have to build an elite defense, kinda like what the Broncos had in 2015 or even this year. Because I doubt the Panthers will ever be more than a 32-20th ranked offense with Bryce at the helm.  Even with that a SB is gonna be hard to reach. I mean the last time a defense carried a bad offense to a SB was 2015.
