I am starting to get excited about this team taking the field on September 13th at home against the Raiders.  I have a feeling we may be a tougher out than most people think.  We'll take a bunch of L's but will have a lot to cheer about and watch some young players develop into future stars.

I’m excited to see what we’ve got with Rhule and Brady and Snow for sure. Have low expectations for wins but I do think we’ll have some exciting games and our offense will be fun to watch regardless of our record. Defense, oh boy. Just hoping to see some improvement over the course of the season there and young players showing good potential being realized. If the whole is greater than the sum of our parts on D I’ll be really happy, our D’s talent equals 32nd in the league. If it’s better than that credit to Snow and it bodes well for the future.

Pretty much this. Everyone things I'm being negative saying we're going to lose a bunch of games, etc. but that's just being realistic. It doesn't mean you can't watch the games and enjoy watching a young team and staff develop together. It's just gonna be a miserable experience if you're expecting wins.

Yeah I mean it would be just dumb and delusional to expect us to make the playoffs or anything like that. I wouldn’t be completely shocked if we do scrape up 7+ wins but that would require a whole lot to go perfectly for us and I think is very unlikely. More likely we’re in the 4-6 win range, though with our D I couldn’t rule out 1-3 wins. Either way as you said, best to have lower expectations, and just enjoy it for what it is.

I am excited and anxious. 

 

I plan to treat every game like it is the last of the season. 

Same, this pandemic has made me appreciate sports more.  Every game is precious.

      Get ready for ‘SUPER MEN: The inside story of the 2015 Carolina Panthers’

      By Mr Mojo Risin · Posted

      I live in Indiana and took a trip that weekend to watch my two friend's teams play (Chiefs and Vikings) IN Minnesota when they were playing at a college field, I think TCF? Anyways, our plan was to watch the game (noon game) then do some shopping at the Mall of America, I wasn't planning on watching the Panthers play Seattle since I was out sight seeing and walking around after the noon game had ended. By the time we were walking back into the Mall the Panthers were down by 2 scores in the 4th or going into the 4th and we were all thirsty from walking around for 2.5 hours after the Vikings game so we decided to postpone shopping until after we ate. We found this nice little sports bar inside the mall that had the game on. Man, I'm so glad we skipped shopping because that was probably the most excited I've been in some time for a win. Beating Seattle in 2015 felt like the "monkey off the back" sort of feeling and I knew we had finally arrived as a team. The entire bar erupted when Cam hit Olsen for that walk off TD. Literally one of the greatest moments of my life. My friend wasn't so happy though lol, by the time the Panthers game ended ALL of the stores inside the mall had closed and he wasn't able to get any souvenirs. It was his first time watching a Vikings game live and making a trip like that so he was legit upset lol. I on the other hand couldn't have been happier.

      This is the Buc's division to lose.  We come out on top only if the wheels come off if Tampa.  I agree we can be--and should be--better than the Saints and likely the Falcons.  A 9-8 season would be nice, but it isn't great.  It's mediocre and that something the Panthers haven't been in nearly a decade, but would be reason to celebrate.  Heck, the Steelers will likely fire Tomlin over a 9-8 season because they are tired of being mediocre.

      First game was a awful stat line. 2nd DNP due to ankle Summer league doesn't help what hes bring, its dang near YMCA pickup game level.  I heavily question the type of player he is and his future was NOT, not not not what you use #4 pick on. Hornets got him on visit and still made the pick, they better hope he has some Larry legend in him. I maintain huge questions.
