@CRAbelieves we should jettison Sam because "Why should we give him another year?"  

absolutely.  If a QB is horrible starting QB for 4 consecutive years.  It would be foolish to make it 5.  That becomes the definition of insanity. 

 He is a backup QB.  No shame in that.

At a minimum we need to sign a C (I'd give Elflein a run at C for the rest of the season to see what he's got), at least one OG and realistically a LT.

Beyond that I'd look for another option at TE and a competent backup QB.

Well simply stated its cause we have paid him already. We should not have taken the 5th year option in hindsight. But be as it may, we did.

Im not saying he is QB 1 next year, but cutting him would compound the issue. Bring in more oline help. Bring in competition.

If we rebuild the OL and actually get a better scheme we will be ok. OL and ST is the biggest problem on our team. Followed by LB and S. We have skill players but they can't make up for a horrible OL and bad play calling. 

We are literally missing starters at S, so that is less of a problem, IMO. The defense just needs some additional depth and an upgrade or two. The OL is a complete fuging disaster. Literally almost no salvageable parts. That is the five alarm fire that has to be addressed. 

After that, we have to upgrade to a starting caliber QB. You get both of those problems solved and we are probably looking at a winning team. Not a contending team, but a winning team.

Pretty sure Brady takes the LSU job if it’s offered to him. 
 

Our offense will continue to struggle as long as we have subpar starters on the o-line. I have no idea who will be free agents this off-season and what college has to offer in the draft but I have faith that Fitty will do everything possible to get talent.

We have a starting QB. We just don't have a starting OL.

Until the Panthers can win consistently without CMC (either to injury or ineffectiveness) we are the 90's Detroit Lion's offense that was completely dependent on Barry Sanders.  We look competent, at the very least, on offense when he's healthy and heavily involved.  Without CMC we look like a D-III college team out there.

They haven’t won consistently with CMC

Here is how I fix the Panthers in one offseason:

One) Sign Terron Armstead this offseason. IDC what it costs. Sign him to a ridiculous three year deal. 

Two a) Explore but don't break the bank for Rodgers/Wilson. I would not do anything wild but if a Stafford like deal was there pull the trigger. I'm excluding Watson for obvious reasons but should he be cleared of any legal wrongdoing I would explore that as well. 

Two b) Draft Corral or Malik Willis. 

Three) Trade Sam Darnold to the Broncos for a fourth rounder. (TBH I'm just willing this into existence)

Four) With every remaining draft pick draft OG.

Five) Convert Christensen to Guard fulltime. 

New O-line

Armstead-Christensen-Paradis-Rookie/Daley/Brown-Moton

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
