How I Felt After the Game

This year has been different for me. I honestly did not have the emotional ties to this season, and was not totally distraught after the game. I thought the game ended better than expected with us having a chance in the end. 

Same here.  After the Super Bowl loss I removed myself emotionally from this team and game. I actually see the team clearer now and it’s not so hard to admit they are mediocre and have been forever.

Agreed. I did not think we had much of a shot and the boys played their guts out. We just simply aren't as talented as the Saints, but nearly beat them anyway. Take away a very questionable IG call and we had a real shot there.

I took this one hard. I guess because it was the first playoff game since SB50. I wonder if I will ever get over that game. Anyway, it was a tremendous effort to rally at the end. Lets plug some holes and make another run at it next season. A big chance to have our first back-to-back winning seasons next year, and I really don't think we are that far off from being elite again. Heck, we beat the best teams remaining in the playoffs (NE & Minn). Keep Pounding folks!

When they were 21-6 down I had pretty much resigned to them losing, but after the CMC TD and the quick stop on D, I really thought they'd pull it out, especially after they were moving the ball down, although I was half expecting to score and then suffer Brees getting 70 yards in half a minute for a game winning FG

    • Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances. 
    • If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
    • I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?
