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.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
