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?

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      Well, he either plays well or we suck again and get the #1 pick and get our new QB for next year.  Im not stressing.

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.

      Least excitment before any season?

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
