This forum goes into shambles when we lose.

It would be different if our secondary didn't play like absolute garbage and get owned by a TE over and over and over. We scored 28 points, our defense needed to make some stops, they didn't.

The rushing yards, I can understand, with Kemo and Lewis out, it hurt. But our overpaid secondary dropped the ball big time.

I'm not going to get too upset over a loss when the team is sitting at 11-4 and still has a chance to earn a #2 seed. If we lose to the Saints next week though, I'll be pissed.

I think that the reason this site goes to insane after losses is because of the team we have. The Panthers never just a lose a game because they were outplayed. They lose games by being horrendous in some way. Last night, it was by allowing 301 rushing yards to the Giants. A stat like that, regardless of who was hurt on the line, is just pathetic. Add that to the fact that our corners continue to play 15 yards off the receiver, allowing easy first downs anytime the opponent wants it, and our non-coverage of tight ends...it's easy to see how people would be upset. In our other losses this year, we were blown out and looked like crap again.

In my entire history of being a Panthers fan, the Super Bowl is the only game I can recall where I was still proud of the overall team effort at the end of a loss.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
