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.

    • Not sure if they are happy but realize they can’t upgrade everything this year and are content with the group
    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
