I get that with preseason games but I feel these practices show a lot more overall such as talent and depth.

Its mainly to show dont overact, just 70 minutes into the first joint practice. Coaching should improve his troops and tomorrow be 180. Indy's D is one of the best in the league, we already knew the OL is lacking.... I just dont want injuries and maybe put a bug in Ballard's ear about trading for a LB...

I should know better than try the impossible tho, my bad.

Guys, no reason to flip poo. It's a process. Any reasonable person knew that "top 10 defense" talk was ridiculous. 

Baby steps. If we have across the board improvements on that unit over the course of the season, at least we are on the right path. 

Seems like a mixed bag overall but basically what I think the more reasonable Panther fans expected. Some good, some bad. Still a work in progress and that's okay.

Isn't the majority of Indy's starting DL sitting out today with injury?

Let’s compare us to the Patriots. Nice logic.

I believe the panthers also had a awful pre-season and went 12-4 during the season. Do you remember that? It have been the SB year, but they looked lost til the season started. I believe a joint practice was part of it too.

It wouldn't matter that much. Our OL was going to look shaky no matter what. 

This should literally shock zero people.

I'd feel better if we had some semblance of a lineup in place. These guys need to have as much time as possible to gel. That we still seem to be in the midst of figuring out who's gonna be playing and where is concerning.

There was a list of players eailer in this thread- Nelson, Wertz, Kelly, and couple other key players out. But I didnt see starting DL, but I dont know if the coaches gave them the day off or not. I wanted to see Buckner vs panthers OL, but no luck so far...

Unofficial final numbers today: Sam Ehlinger 13-16, 3 TDs, sack; Jacob Eason 8-11, TD, 3 sacks

I think those numbers aren't that good if our DL is allowed to hit them. We probably still have a lot of work to do on the back end of the D but that DL will be fierce all year long.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
