I feel like a loss will be a really really bad sign for the rest of the season for the Panthers.

Week 1 is probably the worst week to draw conclusions from. Teams work on Week 1 all of training camp. I'd give it until at least week 4 or 5 before you start full on panicking.

I wouldn't discount Saleh's influence so quickly. He's a defensive mastermind who believes in pressuring the QB into making bad decisions. Darnold better be ready with the hot reads or it could get ugly for him, painfully ugly. I see CMC and whoever is starting at TE having a major impact. 

We got this.

Christian McCaffrey's leap reminds he's a dynamic weapon - NFC South- ESPN

Week one rookie vs. possible shell shocked bust. If this isn't an absolute blitz fest from both teams I'd be shocked.

shell shocked?

How did Sam Darnold turn into David Carr all of a sudden?

He hasn't proven he's not. His career in NY resembled Carr's in Houston. Carr never bounced back. I'll believe Darnold will when it actually happens. History says it almost certainly won't. It's not what Panthers fans want to hear, but that's reality.

The exact same things were said about Carr. He has the talent. Houston failed him. It's not his fault. His supporting cast sucked. His OL sucked.  His coaches sucked. All of that was true, but he also still very much sucked outside of Houston.

Stopped reading right there because you just showed you did not even compare their stats at all. 

 

76 (rookie season), 49(3rd season), 68(4th season).   

Those are the number of times Carr was sacked.

 

Sam Darnold?  30, 32, and 35.

 

IT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE of a comparison.

Carr was sacked so many times, it ruined him permanently.

 

Sam, on the other hand,  still managed to make some plays with his feet and make some throws on the run.

Also, his first 3 seasons (as bad as they were) paled in comparison to Carr's level of  suckitude.

 

 

So his outlook is not going to be David Carr as much as you're obviously ROOTING FOR HIM to become like that so you can beat your chest while on top of your soap-box shouting "I told you so" to anyone who gives a sh-t what you say around here.

You're right for the wrong reasons. David Carr was put into arguably the worst situation any QB has ever walked into. Sam Darnold walked into a typical highly drafted rookie bad situation. Virtually everyone drafted high in the 1st is walking into a bad situation. Teams don't get high 1st round picks by being in good situations unless someone traded the farm to get there. I hope I'm wrong about Darnold. I hope he's great. I'd love to be wrong. I just doubt I am. There's too much history saying busts rarely recover.

So now you're trying to make excuses for David Carr because you want to be right about Sam Darnold.

 

Like I said "Beating your chest and yelling 'I told you so' like a little kid".    Pathetic.

Pathetic is being a fan of a team and then following that team's bust of a former high first round pick to another team because you were high on him.

Go the fug away. The guy busted and you're so butthurt about it that you're still beating your bird chest and following him around hoping to somehow be right because your pride is hurt.

I'll be cheering for Darnold this fall because he's the Panthers' QB. I want what's best the the Panthers even if it means being wrong. You're a butthurt bitch following around a bust of a QB because you're butthurt. Pathetic indeed.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By MHS831 · Posted

      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.
