This loss is on the receivers, not Sam.

First play of the game interception set the tone. Need team leaders to play better.

It was a bad decision, because he threw it too Robbie. You want to talk about leadership? Ask the guy who called out the coaching staff last week and responded this game with the most uninspired effort of any Panther ever… including KB!!

Sam was sold on the idea he would NOT have to play hero ball.  He was told he would NOT have to do it all.  He was told he had a defense and a run game and WRs galore!

3 weeks in and they dump it all in his lap and send him out to the wolves behind that line with no CMC and a depleted D.

Im stunned his play has declined…(sarc)

Hell of a bait and switch.

Sam is one of many problems this team is facing;

terrible o-line

stud rb who can’t stay on the field 

OC who seems lost at times

 below average ST

talented D who are being asked to perform miracles because our offense is inept most of the time.

A HC who basically admitted he doesn’t know how to adjust during games.

Sam may not be the future. Sam may have shat the bed the past two losses.

But played good enough today for what he is. He led a last minute drive with precision passes. He side stepped poo blocking (once again).

Today we lost because of drops. Had the receivers caught those dead on passes, we would’ve won, guaranteed.

I understand the concerns of Sam but let’s keep this in perspective.

Exactly. 

People harped on last week's pass to Robbie saying "oh.  Well Sam should've thrown it at the numbers to Robbie 'cause that's why he couldn't catch it".

Well he threw a bunch of those today and they STILL DROPPED IT.

So yes.   This loss is on the WRs.  

But let's not also give a pass to the Defense or rather the -EFENSE ('Cause the "D" was missing) who gave up :

198 Yards RUSHING

370+ Yards PASSING

 

Jesus Christ that's bad.

We also need Wide Receivers to catch the goddamn football for 58 minutes after that, too.

We also need the Defense to not give up about 198 rushing yards and 370+ passing yards to the opponent either.

No team wins with 10 dropped passes. Yet Sam had them within a coin toss of doing just that.

 

 

Yep.   All the -EFENSE had to do was play some "D" and force (in the least) a FG to get the ball back and perhaps Sam would be clutch again.   But we'll never know because they couldn't stop a nosebleed today.

Sam is probably the second biggest problem on the team behind the raging dumpster fire at OL.

But this was just a game we were destined to lose. The stalwart defense wilted, our WR's got a case of the Crisco hands.....it was crazy.

At some level I am glad it is Sam out there getting drilled and not some promising rookie we drafted. It's pretty clear Darnold is going to be the future here so let him work out the kinks on offense while we keep building that OL in 2022.

      Director of College scouting should be next. I'd like to see the organization go after Senior Bowl Director Jim Nagy who's a good friend of Dan Morgan back in their time in Seattle

      Off season talk.

      I always just go back to what I said at the time. Trade Burns to the Rams because it's a fantastic deal. I was screaming it. I'm still angry at Fitt over that. Right after he turned down the deal I said he needed to get into a time machine and go back and make the deal. Hate that dude. Ruined our team. Trading D.J was a major mistake because what matters most in the NFL is the passing game, so you never unload a proven #1 WR when there are other options. Always trade a defensive player over a WR if you have that option available. Fitt was precious about defensive players when we had a passing offense that didn't function. That's how know he was completely incompetent. The passing offense is the top priority, so until that is functioning all defensive players are possible trade fodder. At this point we're in a rebuilding year under a new GM and a QB who looks absolutely horrendous. It makes perfect sense, if you follow all of our moves, that we would be the worst team in the NFL. Of course we are. You can't screw up as a GM that many times over the years and not ruin the franchise. We're exactly where we should be, dead last, or bottom 3. Whichever you like. But this is the here and now. Dan did a good job getting our 2nd round pick back, and we won't know about the picks until they take the field in regular season games. We're in dark until then, but if they suck the Panthers media will hide it shamelessly. Remember when Young was supposed to be a football genius? Yeah he was rancid turds out there when live fire started. There is some hope. Either Young improves and we win more games, or he stays about the same and we draft a new QB in 2025. Either way the NFL will help us out of this jam, but all we need is for Dan not to screw it up.
