None of the teams below us other than Jacksonville got the advantages that we did starting out.

Even once you get past the extras that the league gave us, many of those teams were created long before free agency became what it is today.

Teams that started new before us were true expansion teams. Their road to relevance was way harder than ours.

Like what?

 

honest question i was a small child when we got started up.

After over two decades of Carolina football under the leadership of owner Jerry Richardson , his win/loss record was a very average...

 

192-192-1

Cant get more average than that, hopefully Tepper can do a better job of ensuring that we field teams year after year that are competitive.

This is more on the GM then JR

Dude can't we stop with these threads they are getting really old. Quit trying to throw the guy under the bus. Same as with the threads about kneeling. So tired of hearing about this crap.

It's not that I disagree with you. 

Just I can't help myself.

Technically...you're reading this crap.

Tampa and Seattle also had an expansion draft and received top 2 picks in 76. 

Sorry to Rain on Mister's Panther Hate Parade.

But free agency did start til 1993.

Once upon a time, teams like the Cowboys, Dolphins and Jets were expansion teams as well, all making it to the Superb Owl early on in their history. There are winner and loser franchises throughout the system. Heck, look at the Cardinals, a team of extreme longevity in the NFL that is second from the bottom in win percentage.

Teams founded throughout the decades have risen or fallen based on much more than advantages and disadvantages in their first season team makeup. Sure, the playing field was leveled just a bit for the Jags and Panthers, but that was a very short-lived evening as most of the "evening" players were at the twilights of their careers.

All teams must win and lose on the field based on their performance. And there are so many franchises that just mightily suck. We aren't one of them.
