This pass went 30 yards on a rope and hit his receiver in the facemask before being dropped. That kind of otherworldly athleticism translates to 32 of 32 teams. 

I think you missed the point. They lost the game despite this because the situation matters.

Situation absolutely matters. Mahomes would have been running for his life here, just like Cam. Imagine Cam or Mahomes behind Dallas' billion dollar offensive line a few years back. Imagine a healthy Cam with Andy Reid or hell even Joe Brady. It makes me so angry to know the Panthers squandered a generational talent on hacks like Mike Shula, and that Rivera/Hurney/Gettleman let him get beat to hell because they were too stupid or stubborn to properly invest in a legit o line or weapons for Cam.

Marty loved his vets and paid them way more than the market on new contracts when they were past there prime .  He made mistakes when he let Bradberry leave . He hurt the fans when he let Steve Smith go . The Cam Newton for Teddy Bridgewater deal wasn't handled well . Teddy got way more than his worth .  It was time for new management .

This comes as absolutely no surprise:

CAROLINA PANTHERS: ANYTHING AFTER THE SECOND ROUND

Marty Hurney wasn’t fired for his draft record, as he did fine in early rounds. It was Rounds 3-plus where they simply have struggled to find competency. Arguably the best one of the bunch has been Corn Elder, who earned a 68.5 grade this season on 411 snaps as a slot corner. If that’s your biggest mistake, though, it’s been a solid span of drafts.

When one of Marty's best post-2nd round picks is a throw away pick from Gettleman, that says a lot.

Marty wasnt responsible for Smitty.

I'd argue some of his 2nds are why we were always so up and down.

His "hit" % in the 2nd if damn near unbelievable, and then toss in the trade ups...whew.

Agreed. I think Reid deserves a TON of credit for Mahomes because he's worked wonders with every QB he's ever had, but I don't think there's many situations where Mahomes doesn't become an elite NFL QB.

SEATTLE SEAHAWKS: WHERE TO START…

Go take a look for yourself. I don’t think there’s been a worse drafting team over the span. D.K. Metcalf in 2019 and landing Chris Carson in the seventh are really the only saving graces for what’s been a messy five years of picks. It's almost incomprehensible after how dominantly the Seahawks drafted from 2010-2012.

This is precisely what has me worried about our new GM. 

We've potentially jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
