Carolina is 2-12 in the division since 2019.

Atlanta was last in the division last year.

When someone says that they are last in the division, that is what they mean. Last in the division.  Not discounting non-division games across a 2 year period.

Why do you redefine division standing to make us look worse?

I get the sense you are dragging in a feud from a previous disussion. My opinion is that Atlanta was not worse than Carolina last year. If anything we were neck and neck. Despite them having a higher draft pick than us we still split with them and we got swept by the Saints and Bucs. I guess we were a hair better than the lowly Falcons. Yay?

You said we were dead last in the division. 

I corrected you. 

That was it.

We both know it's spite. The least we can do is be honest this is an anonymous chat. The point of the post which you glossed over was to stop popping champagne bottles over having a top offensive skill player while we are playing musical chairs with the bottom team in our division. Not everyone is satisfied with fawning over the highest paid running back while watching the team falter each season. It's all hands on deck for '21.

Indeed. Hopefully they do better than their win percentage of .313 in both '19 and '20.

We get it.  The implosion of 2019 and the 1st year of rebuild 2020, we weren't good, with only 5 wins each. 

Its good you're here to remind us.

I mean, talking about better between the 2020 Panthers and Falcons is basically a sinking and floating turds discussion. 

Even being "better" than the Falcons isn't much consolation.

Well the good news is there is nowhere to go but up. Still waiting for that left tackle though...

Yep. Both teams had only 3 wins by week 10. By stroke of luck or a little tanking sprinkled in they finished on a 5 game losing streak and outdueled us for worst. I guess that's a silver lining if you are that hard up for a little optimism 😂

Our division futility is pretty rough. This has been one of the darkest periods in franchise history, without a doubt.

    • I see progress and improvements. We aren't the same team we were even at the beginning of this year. You want to harp on the past while I am all about the present and future. Do I know thinks are going to be great moving forward? Actually I don't but I prefer to look at the good instead of the bad. Since he is surely going to be the QB the rest of this year barring injury, I am going to root for him to succeed instead of fail. I always said if we are going to finish at 500 for the year I prefer we win at home since I will be there and want to see wins and crying opposing fans like the cowboys. So far mission accomplished. Now we have to show we can win on the road.
    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
