Do we even want to talk about the Falcons game or are we just chalking up another loss?

I'm sorry, my guitar playing friend, but I'm not giving up yet.  Rhule will put some fire under some asses and we will win.  21 Panthers - 10 Atlanta.

If the game was at home, I'd have more optimism, but even our 15-1 team dropped the game in Atlanta. I hope Darnold bounces back from a bad showing against the Giants and can move the team.

Falcons 20

Panthers 13

But why win, hell might as well take CMC out for another year and trade him?

That’s loser talk we’re a competent qb and solid off-season away from being a playoff team you don’t trade your best player just because. If you want to limit his reps a lot more (which we should do regardless) and let Chuba get more run cool but I’m of the opinion that *next* year is the year we should be a playoff team. Rhule inherited a disaster of a roster and he’s significantly improved it I just think Jerry Jones was right when he said when you hire a college coach  “You pay a price for somebody to get up to date.”

Mike Davis revenge game…..he got less than a handful of carries last week, so I fully expect him to put up pro bowl number against us.

Did you not see his "revenge game" last year against the Bears?

Fumbled for the first and only time in some ridiculously crazy stat and did a great Mike Tolbert SuperBowl edition impression by doing that and generally looking like a fat and slow slob.

I think this next game will be very telling about the identity of this team. After losing to a lesser Giants team and playing uninspired. If Panthers lose next week, it will tell a lot about Coach Rhule and his staff. I refuse to believe that we have a less talented roster compared to the Giants and Falcons, if we lose it's because of the coaching staff. As head coach, you are paid millions of dollars to get the best out of your players and put them in position to succeed.

Rhule is done and we’re not even done with year two. We’re getting worse, sorry but can’t agree with you there.

Yeah he looks really bad right now, and it’s looking like he will be cut next year. With that being said I bet he gets 200 yards and 3 TD’s this week against us because the defense it on the field 95 percent of the game.

This sounds EXACTLY like you are talking about last season with Bridgewater. Its just the same poo on repeat.

So we bottom out like the Eagles and just don’t try and lose even more fans? I was at the Eagles game it was damn near a home game for them. We’ve got to at least try to win I’ll never want to root for a team that actively tanks.

personally I think it’s time we start tanking…but to be honest I’m not sure what they can even do to win if they wanted to…so is that really tanking?

who cares really, what we don’t need is a Rivera trademarked 7-10 season getting fuged from all directions 

I'd prefer they keep trying. Because it's apparent they can't coach for poo. If we start trying to lose, Rhule might fug up and win a game or two.

      Which Round Will Carolina Draft Sawyer Robertson?

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      No matter what we still need a QB2 with potential to be a QB1. Keep throwing QBs at the wall until we find someone who sticks.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      By strato · Posted

      Lot of different agendas dictating opinions.  I don’t think it was the best use of money with Hunt, specifically, but the concept of OL, I am a fan. I didn’t complain a ton because I am a believer in winning up front, on both sides of the ball. I’d rather have stout fronts than fancy WRs. I have complained some about Hunt not being worth his deal, after seeing him get pushed around in a game or two. It’s no crusade. And have complained in the context of shorting the defense.   They have leveled out the FA imbalance with the dual big signings this offseason, and it has always been the draft picks I am most protective of. Anyway The picks are the real imbalance. If you did a trade chart value of the picks we directly gave up for Bryce, and added the support picks invested for skill players, and put that on one side… then put the little 3 3rd rounders and a 2nd that the defense got over three years on the other it would be hugely out of balance. I just want the balance restored. Defense is still owed.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm one of the ones that won't let it go because it didn't solve the problem. We didn't address the center position which was a huge mistake. We were in position to easily take 2 or the top IOL. Instead of drafting JPJ over XL or Frazier over Brooks, we relied on an oft injured guard to center conversion and lo and behold, it failed as predicted. XL looks like a 1 year college wonder and an injured Brooks hasn't even surpassed Eric Shelton.  Bryce was also benched for poor performance, so the issue that many claimed was solely bad oline play wasn't. It didn't fix him bailing out of tight pockets because of being unable to see the field or him refusing to work on his atrocious footwork. Then there's the $$$. Lewis got a good guard payday. Hunt got a tackle payday. Pay tackles, draft guards, if you can.  I have no issues addressing problems through FA. It was not addressing C at all that's been the issue and still has been. Ryan Kalil was the anchor of our offensive line. We had years of solid center play and it showed. Now we're still piecemealing the center position with an expensive oline and it's still a shitshow. Why? Because the player responsible for what happens on the line presnap has little to no experience doing it. We did acquire a FA center this year finally. We'll see how much that impacts the line.  Spending on a center, whether it be through draft or FA is not bad. It's not a position that can have anyone just thrown in with no drop off in performance. A great center lifts the play of the guards on each side.  I don't like how we've built the line because we've ignored the hinge pin that everyone counts on every play. And the reality of the situation is, it didn't solve the actual problems with Bryce because those have nothing to do with the oline.
