Positives from the game

I’m extremely negative when the Panthers are losing games and this one makes 10 in a row dating back to next season. This team is bad and we should all feel bad. But here’s some positives a noticed:

Perseverance. During their first two gamesthe Panthers have trailed by two scores in the 4th quarter, and have shown fight and battles back in both games. That at the very least shows this team is unlikely to get completely embarrassed off the field despite being outmatched in every game this season.

Waiver Wire Win: Yet again Rasul Douglas, a guy who joined the team two weeks ago, is clearly the best defensive back on the roster.

WR Strength: Usually the worst position group on the team during Cam’s years on the Panthers, now we have a WR duo of Moore and Anderson that are easily the best pair of WRs since Smith and Muhammad.

One Loss Closer: Another loss brings us one loss closer to the end of a third straight losing season and hopefully the future at QB.

Hell i'd rather take chances on picking up some random dood like we did with Douglas than have Bostons sorry ass out there. Just throw a dart at the waiver wire board and bring somewho in and literally couldn't be any worse.

You know this is a horrible team when dudes picked up off the waiver wire play better than the dudes on the actual roster.

Mike Davis showed he's likely worth the $3M.

Early on I was really thinking he was nothing special back there. In the second half, and especially after CMC went out, the guy answered the call and played with a lot of heart. Yeah, he's a pretty good pick up. Rasul Douglas is certainly making the most of his opportunity. Chin looks like the real deal. 

Brian Burns had some flashes of talent there. Was beginning to worry.

Chinn was good, but let's not fake a punt like that again. 

Charlton looks a lot better in the game than he did in that one pre-season video. That's not necessarily good, but that's at least a relief.

    • the one thing this post has suprised me with is how much support there still is for young.  i dont understand why.  we had qbs before him that went to superbowls that lost support way quicker.  thr only qb we had had that started any number of games that played worse than young is clausen.  allen and moore played better and yet people still support him makes 0 sense to me
    • Again, can’t have a serious discussion if constantly wading through hyperbole. And you say that’s not really what was meant, but I tried to at one point get some folks to concede that he was physically capable of throwing a football 20yds just so we could get to a real discussion and they stuck with it. So I’m not sure your characterization is entirely accurate.
    • And this is his third year. As far as people not understanding things, I am not sure people accept how difficult it is to remake yourself from the ground up. Which he absolutely has to do to compete successfully at the NFL level.  He takes a step forward with the footwork and a step back when he is stressed and reverts to what always worked for him before. I will say it yet again, anyone that reached a level of success with their self taught technique but needed to rebuild to break through the limitations that imposed, will understand this. I don’t care what specific activity it is the same challenge. Muscle memory and comfort level fight against the new moves you are trying to train yourself to do without thinking.  He is there. There is a ceiling with his technique that is too low for the NFL. He has to retrain himself.  We are in the third year and I guess we are supposed believe that he will be so good  when he finally gets to where the new will be second nature, that we have to wait (how many more years) for him to finish doing it. If he ever finishes.  The sad fact is he will not succeed at the NFL level with his horrible college footwork and compensation moves like the tippy toe drop backs. He just won’t.  If he can’t put that on the table for us, we would be foolish to not seek an alternative plan.
