Do you give a sh*t about the rest of the season?

Here we are, another meaningless end to a Panthers season. Make it 3 bullshit seasons in a row, and 8 out of the last 11 seasons ending in a losing record (yea I know they’ve only lost 8 games as of now but we all know this team has more losses in them)

Anyone still care at all? Today broke me. I really can’t keep hoping this team wins. I hope they lose the rest of their games in blowouts like they did at the end of 2019 to get a high draft pick to get a new QB. I hope they fire Teddy Bridgewater into the sun and let Will Grier throw passes to nobody so we definitely lose the rest of our games.

Yes of course. This season was never going to be any good. I enjoy watching our coaching, and the development of our outstanding rookie class. The future is bright, bro, look at the big picture. We need a franchise QB, and that will work itself out.

I’ve enjoyed watching them all season. Not surprised how this season has gone, well I thought we’d be doing worse... so yeah, I’ll continue watching. It’s fun to watch a team grow. Here is to year one. 
 

we’ve done this roster reset thing once per decade, and we are starting a new one now.

So tell me your plan of this franchise QB and how to obtain such....

The coaching will probably get better with time and experience as will the younger end of the roster, I am not sure some of the older players will get better with time though.. Having said this the roster turnover in the off-season will tell us a lot about what to expect next year and onwards.

This thing called the  NFL Draft. Perhaps you’ve heard of it? We’re going to have a pretty high pick in this next one. Lots of very good QBs coming out.

I offer this advice honestly and without snark. 

 

Find something else to be emotionally invested in on Sundays.

 

Its a game that you have ZERO impact or influence in its outcome regardless of how many superstitions you keep up.

Its clear that its causing you stress.  Let it go.

I care that the Panthers lose the rest of their games this season in hopes that they are in a position to find a franchise QB. Without a franchise QB mediocrity and worse will continue to be the hallmark of this team. I hate being in this position but denial will not change reality. The reality is that the Panthers can win by losing and lose by winning. The other reality is that this was all predictable and, in fact, was predicted on this board right after the signing of Bridgewater and extension for McCaffrey. This would have been the perfect season to go with youth, struggle, save cap space for the coming decrease, and then build for the future.

What might have been.....what should have been.....and what was......

    • Absolutely. Despite the turnovers and the terrible slips we only gave up 17. If the offense could have mustered a single productive drive after the start of the game ...
    • I think Tepper (and owners in general) have  more influence on team personnel than most of us realize. Remember how Brenton "Sunshine" Berson was a roster lock when JR owned the team?  Frank Reich didn't want to draft Bryce, Tepper did. I remember him saying in an off-season meeting that the team wouldn't have to break the bank on WR's because of BY's processing ability and his ability to distribute the a ball to like a point guard to the skill position guys. Frank quickly realized it was almost hopeless situation. And, why are we running a 3-4 defense? We ran a 4-3 for almost two decades. One year after Tepper takes over, we went to a 3-4 and continue to do so despite never drafting the appropriate personnel to run it after Rivera was fired. Owners have a lot of say on what happens on that field. Look how Al Davis tried to ruin Marcus Allen's career essentially benching him during his prime years. Canales got this job because Tepper wanted someone who could "fix" Bryce; and Canales was overly eager to get his first coaching job and felt up to the task. No top coaching prospect was going to want to come to Carolina with our track record since Tepper bought the team and having their destiny tied to Bryce as his QB. A top GM candidate from outside the organization would feel the same way. In theory, it was too early to cut bait with him after only one season Dan and Dave knew one another and both wanted to be "the guy" in charge as coach and GM. Carolina provided the ideal opportunity. On the surface this hire, if successful, could validate Tepper's decision to give a fool's ransom for Bryce and he could fill the GM spot with a body but still have someone in power that he was familiar with. In all honesty, it we had a good QB and a capable back-up on the roster I doubt we'd be having this conversation because we'd probably be one of the top teams in the NFC.
    • Just reeks of bullshit. Good college QB but when you were watching him as an NFL prospect the physical limitations and playing style concerns were very obvious. Teams across the league almost certainly evaluated him as a backup QB prospect and the last thing you want out of a backup QB is a distraction. Strip away the media hype job, add in all the reports that Shedeur essentially completely blew off the pre-draft process and turned teams off essentially cementing what many already thought and nothing about his draft plummet was surprising. Watch the Browns draft room as the pick was announced. It's very obvious that wasn't their pick. The owner stepped on and said get me that press attention. Why would that have happened if there was a directive from the league not to draft him? It just doesn't pass the bullshit litmus test.
