I agree with you.  There is enough blame to go around on the offense.  That's who lost this game. 

The defense did everything they could to keep us in the game but the offense just killed any momentum the defense handed them. But I will acknowledge the fact that the game turned on the blown play by Franklin.  The team never seemed to recover after that.

Yeah but that mistake shouldn't have broken our backs like that. The offense mustered a measly 3 points and less than 150 yards after the half. We have to do better than that.

The truth is likely somewhere in between. We aren't an undefeated NFL team nor are we as bad as 0-2 versus the NFC East.

Nah. Without CMC, I’d say we are 1-4 at best 0-5 potentially. Jets were mounting a comeback they just ran out of time. The Texans had a third string QB. Saints are slightly an anomaly, but without CMC who knows what would have happened that game.

IDK that I agree with that, nor do I agree that CMC might cure all our ails.

We have 12 more games to figure all that out.

CMC doesn’t cure all the ails. He gives us the safety blanket of a fighting chance. Something that can clearly be seen as missing currently. 

 

And I’m speaking directly about coaching. It’s been the same thing every game of the season so far.

The only thing Positive about today's game....

 

....is that it's over.  

Jesus Christ....WTF was that, man??? simon cowell facepalm GIF

At least our "D" balled out but we need an "O" to score more points than the opposing team and not fug things up!!   We got the opposite of the latter two.

A good part of it is once again....SAM.   But Brady did him no favors either.

The O-Line was improved somewhat merely for the Fact that Cam wasn't in while Brady was but that's the only positive from the Offense. 

I'm just....resigned at this point that perhaps....PERHAPS...the annoying Naysayers about Sam are indeed correct in their knee-jerk assumptions.

Have you ever considered that defenses get tired when they're left on the field constantly?

Didn't Carolina have the ball for like 35 minutes compared to 25 for the Eagles?

When that drive started it would have been 23 minutes. They got gassed in 23 minutes?

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      Same I think Randsom is a baller..... hopefully we don't have to suffer through 4-8 games of Scott blowing azz to get him on the feild.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
