The last two times the Panthers went 3-0, they ended up in the Superbowl.... 

Now I don't want to get hopes up but if this team can keep on the pedal and improve (especially on the offensive line) I can see a deep playoff run. I know it sucks losing CMC (and hopefully it's just for a few games) but we still have Robbie and DJ and I have high hopes for Marshall as well as the Arnold/Tremble TE combo. 

Let's prove these doubters wrong!

It's not like the NFC is unsurmountable.  

Wilson is proving he can't carry the whole org on his shoulders for Seattle 

Rodgers and GB are spotty at best and not some juggernaut anymore

And TB w/TB can beat anyone, but has shown they can get beat against the right defense.

It is AZ and LAR that are suddenly the cream.  But I think AZ is quite beatable.  The Rams are the tough ones.

I see no reason why we can't compete for the SB this year, even with the OL situation.

This Dallas game will be telling.  If we go to their place and win this game this Panthers team is better than I think.  I think we lose this one by a few scores.

They lost by 2 to the Bucs and beat the Chargers who just beat KC on the road today.  This game will be super tough without CMC

Both those teams had a top 5 oline.

We are…what…31?

It just doesn’t work like that. Weapons don’t matter cmc or no cmc. The defense is legit, but the oline will be exposed vs. competitive teams.

I only hope Darnold stays healthy for next year and they attempt to fix it.

If Rhule goes deep in the playoffs with the worst oline in the NFL and zero special teams, without a HOF qb, he will be smashing NFL records that have held for decades and should truly be considered the future and one hell of a coach.

TRUST THE PROCESS

if Rhule can pull off a deep run in the playoffs in his 2nd year of a rebuild, it should throw tons of support into the argument that what he did at Temple and Baylor weren't flukes - and Tepper may have gotten the deal/steal of the century with that hire.

If we pull off a deep playoff run this season, that will be so far ahead of schedule and with such an unbelievably young core that we might be a power for a long time.

AZ is annually extremely overated.

They look good at times and then look unusually god awful. Then when they are awful, they get defended all to hell. THEN wind up 7-9 (I guess 8-9 this year) at best, while still being defended as a "potential powerhouse" team.

I admit the 2015's offensive line was good (with the exception of Remmers) but that season started with question marks because we didn't know what Oher had left and Norwell was a undrafted free agent. Plus, it didn't hurt having one of the most athletic QBs at the time.

03's offensive line was serviceable at best. The only star was Jordan Gross and the rest were a 6 round pick and veterans.

I hope this year's line will surprise us but we won't know until we face some top tier defenses.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
