Olsen joining Davis in return and retirement

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.

    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
