Not that I think he’s done and I’d love to see him get back to form with a more normal off season and some actual NFL talent around him, but if Cam were thinking maybe it’s time to give his body a rest and sit at home counting his millions, it would be epic if he joined them on March 11. Three of the main architects of what success we had for a decade

I cannot believe we had all that talent and no ring to show for it.  These guys deserved better.  That's six Ring of Honor players right there, and probably two gold jackets.

Just out of curiosity, which 2? My rank, I'd say that Khalil was top 3 centers in the league for a long time, Olsen set several TE records playing, TD was the best feel good story in football, AND produced on the field. Luke and Cam were superstars, but had relatively short careers (I know, I know cam is still playing, but as a shell of his former awesomeness). CJ was a stud, but so are a lot of players.

Shame the NFL had to cheat them to give Peyton Manning his retirement trophy.

The problem is we didn't surround them with enough talent. 

There's a reason we've never had back-to-back winning seasons despite being able to roll out a lineup like that for 5+ years. They can't do it all on their own.

I believe Luke and Greg are the ones who will make it.  I hope that Luke's short career isn't held against him because he was CLEARLY the best MLB to ever play the game.  With Greg, he has the 5th most receiving yards by a TE.  Three straight 1000 yard seasons.  I don't think there should be any questions there.

Cam is hard to predict.  His passing stats are not even close to HoF, but his rushing was important.  He's a QB.  How does that get weighed?  If they take his rushing yards and TD's into account, I think he gets in.  If they don't, he won't make it.

Kalil was a great Panther, but he isn't close to NFL HoF caliber.

TD is just in a crowded room.  Wilber Marshall, Cornelius Bennett, Lance Briggs, Bill Romanowski and Ken Norton JR are all in the same sort of area as TD and none are in the HoF.

What it feels like to have an actual football team. How far we have fallen. I look at the Canes and then at the panthers and minus a handful of players i'm like what the actual fug is Tepper + GM + Rhule doing.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
