To their credit, the Panthers tried to make that very transparent from the get go with all the talk of a "five year plan" not looking for quick fixes, etc. 

I’m sure they’re even surprised at the success they’ve had this season record wise.

Ah the whole ‘equation’ mantra. If if if the saints do this and bucs do that and falcons don’t do this and we’re able to do that and not this...

lol how about just winning the damn division and not relying on the NFCS to suck to get in.

When we can be #1 despite what any other team does is when I’ll consider the Panthers arriving.

The NFL is chock full of sh-tty teams this season.

Even a mediocre team might look good by comparison.

With a lot of those sh!tty teams trending downward.

Teams with new coaching staffs looking awful still. Teams with rosters that’ll need a complete makeover. 

It certainly seems like we have a good one based on what we’ve seen and we’re trending in the right direction.

I agree. Cream has risen to the top quickly this year because other teams are falling apart in epic ways.

Teams like Dallas, AZ, CLE, CIN have newer coaching but aren't necessarily showing up or look good.  AZ's record won't stick. 

PHI, DET, ATL, MN, NE are on mega rocky ground right now.  Don't know about the longevity of their vets, coaching, etc. 

WAS, HOU, JAX, NYG and NYJ are simply falling apart. 

SF is the team having "that" year with the injury bug hitting mega hard.

None of those teams are trending up.

Then...

NO, Denver and Vegas are my TBD tight now/can't quite tell.  

We're trending upward along with LAR, CHI on the rebound and maybe LAC with Herbert.  There's not much but we're the one team trending with a new coach. 

Then...the cream:

TEN, PIT, KC, GB, TB, BUF, SEA

Voth doesn’t tweet a lot but when he does you should listen. 

So if you like what you’ve seen from Rhule and co. so far, be patient and... trust the process. 

But I’m sure come Sunday if we lose we’ll get more of the same reactionary threads 

 

I am absolutely happy with what I see.  Though we aren't a championship caliber team.  I do think the foundation is solid. Rhule has a plan and we need to be onboard with his plan.

Expectation for this season was 3-6 wins. Anything in excess of that is just icing for me. If they can find a way into the playoffs and get some playoff experience under the young guys belts, fantastic. But I have my expectations in check and have been very pleasantly surprised so far.

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
