Why is most of the focus on Allens QB performance today?

I think Allen was the victim of his own head on this one.  Once every other phase of our game started to crumble in ruin, he tried to do too much and forcing things which didn't help as we all could see.  Hopefully this was a good learning experience for him.

Two things hurt us bad.  Because once they got up it was over. 

defense early was a disaster and not enough CMC early.  I get what Norv was trying to do early but we should of been going with CMC early.  

I don't know if it would have mattered.

They were just better than us today.

Absolutely you can talk about the fact that we have a defensive minded head coach who has been in place for nearly 10 full years who has watched his defense give up 40+ points in a potentially season altering blowout loss in consecutive seasons now. There's no spinning that into a positive unfortunately.

Did you not see our defense get raped?

The focus was on Kyle because it was his first real true test. On the road against a solid defense. If he would have looked above average we would be talking about sitting Cam the rest of the year. Because he didn't look above average, or average, or even slightly below average it makes people realize the league has figured him out and he isn't a QB in 2019 who can take us to the playoffs.

The blame needs to be on Ron.  He had ample time to get this team prepared and as usual he failed.    We can talk about excuses for Allen or excuses for Cam but Ron is the one that continuously has excuses.     It is time to realize we aren’t going anywhere with this coach.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Panthers sign OT Rasheed Walker Terms: One year, up to $10 million Grade: A The price of this deal might be the most shocking of free agency thus far. Walker was widely considered the best free agent tackle this year and was expected to receive a large contract. But his market developed very slowly, so he has signed a one-year deal with a maximum value of $10 million -- meaning the base value is below that -- per NFL Network. For context, my free agency contract model projected a deal averaging $21.8 million for Walker. Instead, it's a short-term commitment for less than half that. And the Panthers are the beneficiaries. Carolina entered this offseason with a possible need at left tackle after Ikem Ekwonu suffered a patellar tendon rupture in the playoffs that put his 2026 season in question. It's also the last year of his contract. The Panthers signed Stone Forsythe as an insurance plan already in free agency, but once Walker's market fell it seemed like they felt adding him was well worth it, too. Our win rate metrics consider Walker to be a solid player. Last season in Green Bay, he was in the 85th percentile among tackles in pass block win rate, though only 22nd percentile in run block win rate. He was in the 69th percentile and 48th percentile in those two metrics in 2024, respectively. Given that Dan Moore Jr. received $20.5 million per year from the Titans last year most -- myself included -- thought Walker would walk away with more than that. Perhaps the struggles of Moore (who wasn't great last season) contributed to Walker's market being cooler than expected, a theory that ESPN's Jeremy Fowler suggested. Walker was also arrested two months ago at LaGuardia Airport in New York for allegedly trying to check-in with a firearm that he had a license for in Wisconsin but not New York. Either way, teams felt differently about Walker than most on the outside thought. But he's a heck of an add for the Panthers at this price. While his run-game contributions might be far from perfect, a weak pass protector at tackle can sink a passing game. Even if this is only a one-year arrangement, Walker should be able to help keep Bryce Young upright

      Fantastic signing. If he is good, this will make next offseason really interesting. I would imagine that Morgan would try to extend Walker and convince Ikey to move to the right side to replace Moton. This also opens up options at 19 at lot instead of forcing a tackle. I'm not a fan, but I'm definitely more open to Morgen drafting Sadiq now, but there is also Peter Woods, and even some like Dillon Thieneman is now in the mix. Hell, I'm still for another off ball LB.

      sure, but Panthers are theoretically in their win now window. Their first rounder needs to be a day one starter
