Is this the most talented 7-9 team we’ve ever had?

Your kidding yourself if you think this team is talented. Yes, we have some very talented starters in guys like Cam, Luke, CMC, Olsen, Davis, but this team is completely devoid of talented depth and role players. 

We’re actually really talented if there were no such thing as defense or a kicking game

The 2004 team was destined for greatness and should have repeated the Super Bowl,.. been there to beat Phily and face the Patriots again,. Serious divine intervention at some of the injuries that torpedoed that season,..

No way this team minus Cam even compares

Defense is really effing rough right now regardless of coaching. Let's just get that out of the way.

But this team has tremendous Super Bowl caliber talent on offense.

It's basically John Fox all over again with the propensity for being way too reliant on a conservative play it safe style of game management. Except that Ron Rivera, through what I can only assume at this point nearly a decade into his head coaching gig is either sheer ignorance or arrogant stubbornness, simply will not ever fully embrace a more aggressive style of game management unless his back is completely against the wall when it's too late. Like going for 2 against the Lions.

      Two Athletic articles about QBs

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Bad teams with new coaches that want to make a splash with big passing games kill young QBs. Solid teams that can lean on the run and play-action give a chance for QBs fresh out of college to grow and learn how to dictate a game. A lot of these guys, and maybe even Bryce, aren't horrible but they are being asked to go in and be something unrealistic. They are expected to be able to put out raging dumpster fires after being handed a bucket and being told to go find some water.  And I think we see some of these guys who were labeled as busts eventually developing into serviceable, sometimes decent, sometimes quite good QBs when they land at a well-built team with good coaching and a solid identity. Mayfield, and Darnold are two that come to mind right now. And the two Joneses are certainly showing more in Indy and San Fran than they'd ever really shown before. But we're a shoddily built team that has been weakly coached into a softer style of football that puts crazy amounts of pressure on young QBs. Heck, even Andy Dalton with his experience really couldn't sustain any results here.

      Smitty goes off on CLT on WFNZ

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      1. Charlotte has been very good to Smitty and his comment is out of line.  2. XL is Smitty, just 180 degrees out of phase. He is the quintessential anti-Smith. Give 89 the ball and he will win a game for you. His high gear was terrifying and he was fearless. He was the bully on every snap he ever played here.  XL is Mr alligator arms who lives in fear of contact. He gets boxed out by guys he outweighs by 40 pounds and looks generally clueless.  Why he has chosen to defend someone he would have BBQ’ed as a teammate stumps me.

      Fake outrage from an entertainer... And yes he would have absolutely chewed him out on the field for that kind play.
