The first 2 games the Panthers have absolutely dominated the first half.  We need to put together 4 quarters and get in the paint (still a big issue) and we can beat anyone.  Can we do that is the question.

This team will eventually have to play from behind.  Like Parchells said, its when adversity hits that you find out what someone is really about

Here is what Houston Texans fans are saying about their Thursday night game against the Carolina Panthers. 

 

On the Carolina Panthers

I really cannot disagree with much here. The Panthers struggled to beat a very bad Jets team and the Saints game could be an anomaly with them missing so many coaches during the game. Still, it is the Panthers defense that makes me think the Panthers are for real this season. 10 sacks in 2 games. That is difficult to argue against. 

 

On the importance of losing their starting QB

In what world do you automatically mark a W because of Taylor? lol. Unless Deshaun Watson was playing again this game was always going to be favored by the Panthers. The Texans are in a dumpster fire period of their history with perhaps the worst front office/head coaching combo in the league. 

 

On the prospects of their own rookie QB

Sounds like they have a Jimmy Clausen type situation on their hands. Texans may be picking 1 overall. 

 

On signing Cam Newton

This guy gets it. The Texans are on the decline in a big way. Why pull that bandage off slowly? Play your rookie, lose your games. Trade Watson and load up with lots of draft picks in 2022.  A proper rebuild is in order.

This is where we learn from our mistakes and get ready for the brutal second half.  If we can win the majority of these games we'll have a chance to make the playoffs and then all bets are off. 

Yeah, that last month of the schedule is brutal. It’s going to be portrayed as a collapse, but in reality it will be more of a “coming back down to earth” after playing the world champs twice.
I still think we’re a year away from competing with the big boys, but I really like where we are headed and a good season this year is just a bonus to me.

We will beat the Bucs once and I stand by that.

DISCLAIMER: The following is mostly pipe dreaming.

We could go into the last month at 12-1 and end the season 12-5.  I do not think that will actually happen, but from where I'm sitting, I don't see a team between now and then where I would say we probably won't win.  I see some difficult games, but ALL of them very winnable. 

We do not face a single super bowl contender (not the same as playoff contender) until those last 4 weeks.  I think our defense is playing at a championship level, and that goes a long way to winning games against middle of the pack teams and wild card teams.  Right now for me, the question is can we maintain this or will a team like Dallas or Arizona expose some weakness that I'm not seeing yet?

      Draft picks are better for cap management and production always outperforms athleticism over time.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Crixtala · Posted

      all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
