The division was already trending in the positive direction and this afternoon solidifies that. And here we are. With hurney. And Ron. No DC in sight. No changes after a failed campaign. Got a feeling tepper is following that hurricanes model. And no hiring wilks doesn't fix poo. We are fuged. Tank mode.

I certainly do not have any faith in management and coaching.  Ownership's inaction has left me scratching my head.  But it is what it is, and more so than anything else, its just to depressing to spend the long dark offseason believing we're going to be horrible.

So, before we start talking last place, lets see what happens with the draft, FA and Cam's shoulder.  You never know, a few things go our way and the skys the limit.  We do have bright spots on the team that we tend to overlook in our commiserating.

Then some of you should take next year off from football then..

Go spend more time with family, catch up on some house work, read a good book, catch up on some TV series, develop some new hobbies, or do some charity work..

Stop wasting your time here since you've already given up on the team...

Another embarrassing thread...

I sincerely hope some of you are not this defeatist in your personal lives...

Just a ridiculous thing to post at this point. We are months away from free agency and the draft where we have 4 picks in the first 3 rounds of what is projected to be one of the best drafts for defensive lineman in some time which happens to be our biggest need. On top of that, this team just had one of the best drafts in franchise history. Samuel and Moton showed elite potential in their 2nd years. CMC showed he could be arguably the best combo rushing/receiving back in the league...

If you are truly that pessimistic, you really should sit a season out or pick another team. Do yourselves and everyone else a favor...

  I hear you. It’s hard to read through doom and gloom posts. But in a way I have to agree with OP. On a day when the Bucs grabbed a successful head coach, and rumors that Todd bowles a very good DC (not HC), will join him. Atlanta picked up Koetter from TB as their new OC. Again good OC terrible HC. NO obviously doing ok there. Meanwhile crickets in Carolina after an abysmal 7 game slide. I look at our team and we haven’t got any exceptional younger talent. I hope for the best but the Panthers need some good news to pick them up. Coaching, draft, FA, trade. Something.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm one of the ones that won't let it go because it didn't solve the problem. We didn't address the center position which was a huge mistake. We were in position to easily take 2 or the top IOL. Instead of drafting JPJ over XL or Frazier over Brooks, we relied on an oft injured guard to center conversion and lo and behold, it failed as predicted. XL looks like a 1 year college wonder and an injured Brooks hasn't even surpassed Eric Shelton.  Bryce was also benched for poor performance, so the issue that many claimed was solely bad oline play wasn't. It didn't fix him bailing out of tight pockets because of being unable to see the field or him refusing to work on his atrocious footwork. Then there's the $$$. Lewis got a good guard payday. Hunt got a tackle payday. Pay tackles, draft guards, if you can.  I have no issues addressing problems through FA. It was not addressing C at all that's been the issue and still has been. Ryan Kalil was the anchor of our offensive line. We had years of solid center play and it showed. Now we're still piecemealing the center position with an expensive oline and it's still a shitshow. Why? Because the player responsible for what happens on the line presnap has little to no experience doing it. Spending on a center, whether it be through draft or FA is not bad. It's not a position that can have anyone just thrown in with no drop off in performance. A great center lifts the play of the guards on each side.  I don't like how we've built the line because we've ignored the hinge pin that everyone counts on every play. And the reality of the situation is, it didn't solve the actual problems with Bryce because those have nothing to do with the oline.

      Haha!!! That's true. Also carry Tomahawks, ballistic missiles, fighter jets, VSTOL aircraft, etc., but none of them clog up the crappers.
