Am I the only one who thinks yesterday’s loss could be a good thing?

The media is going to be calling us trash all week and are going to completely dismiss us from beating the Saints. This belittlement is only going to motivate Cam and everyone knows he plays best when he’s pissed off. 

If we had steam rolled the Falcons everyone would be praising us and our team would have no animosity to fuel from.

Also, I really don’t think the fact we have to play in New Orleans is going to have much of an effect on the outcome of this game. We have a 24-22 record all time vs the Saints with a 12-11 record both Home and Away.

This team is the epitome of being Jekyll or Hyde. We could beat anybody at any given time but we could also just as easily lose to anyone.

Two of our five losses were basically us beating ourselves. The Bears and the Falcons (yesterday) were cases where we just came out and made fools of ourselves on offense. Cam had lousy days and everyone collapsed around him (except for the defenses both times).

The other three (Saints, Eagles, Saints) were against top tier teams and we were toe-to-toe with the Eagles until the very end.

I hope this embarassing outing will get them knocked back on track, because you are right, we can beat just about anyone. Now it's time to do just that.

The poor showing against TB was supposed to be the wake up call and a good thing... Another terrible loss with bad momentum going into the playoffs AND blowing the chance at the division and a home game to kick it off is not a good thing... We are by no means out of it and I'm sure we won't roll over against the Aints -- it'll be competitive -- but yesterday gave us some serious cause for concern.

The Saints are very good but let's not forget they just lost to the Bucs with playoff positioning on the line similarly to how we lost to Atlanta.

This is going to be a serious grudge match. But only if our run game shows up. Otherwise expect more of the same, and Cam Newton taking all the blame.

There is literally nothing good about having to play the Saints on the road next week instead of the Falcons at home.

A demon is on one shoulder and an angel is on the other.  I don't know which is which. 

Both good points though.

      Brown on BY9 while talking to Chris Long

      I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 2 Rd 3 7pm

      I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
