Fowler had a good game, but overall, the oline was pretty good.  CMC had some holes to run thru, and Cam had time for most of the game, he either just missed or the receivers couldn't get open.  Missing Samuel when he was wide open for a big gain was a heartbreaker.  

That was a tough miss. Changes the game. I believe Cam will make those plays as the season goes on.

The OL was ok. They were going against a great front four, so it could have been worse.  But Cam had pressure pretty regularly. If he wasn’t throwing quick passes all night it would have looked worse. CMC has to make a lot of his yards on his own with cutbacks and broken tackles. I’m not saying they were bad like the past few years, but scheming out one d lineman doesn’t mean much by itself.

Yep. One of Fowler’s sacks (I’m assuming he had at least one more) was Donald stunting into Williams and Van Roten couldn’t get free and even put a hand on Fowler. 

I remember that one, I think. If I remember correctly, Fowler actually brushed against Van Roten but Van Roten couldn't (or didn't) do a thing.

With regard to the line, I still think Newton getting the ball out early is helping them look better than they really are.

donald didn't show up in the box score but we were doing a lot of quick passes to avoid getting sacks and fowler dropped cam twice, including once on a stunt from donald and a second time when daryl failed to kick out. not a great performance from the OL on the pass blocking side of things.

congrats on this pyrrhic victory though, looks nice alongside your 32-13 prediction!

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      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.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      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?
