How far out do you think this team is from being Super Bowl caliber ready

I firmly believe SBs are a mix of quality of roster, coaching, luck, and timing.  Two of those things are largely out of our control - when does the team get hot, when are people getting healthy, etc.  Roster is partly there... We are close to an elite defense... Good skill players on offense... but real bad at OL and QB.  And yet, OL is an interesting thing, because a couple great additions can change the entire look of a unit.  QB, tho...

And then there's coaching.  Last year, I thought it was a strength... This year, fug, Rhule looks as lost as our offense.

If that Watson trade had gone through we would have been a bonafide playoff contender this season and as long as you're in the dance anything can happen. 

The defense is good, they would be even better if they were able to play with leads and not constantly on the field due to 3 and outs. 

Both Watson and McCaffrey have put up MVP caliber seasons before behind not so great offensive lines. 

And I know Robby's gotten fat and lazy DJ Moore's making business decisions 🙄 apparently. But they were one of the best 1-2 threats just a season ago.

Trade for OT Cam Robertson... Not Newton We desperately need a Starting/ Franchise Offensive Tackle. Taylor Decker is also another Legit offensive Tackle to get. 

DRAFT- First round pick OC- Tyler Linderbaum. 

 A Starting QB...

And a safety to pair with Chin

Just for starters.

I’d say 3-4 seasons at least

 

 this team will need to rebuild their o line

 find a franchise QB

 learn to move on from CMC

 

 THANKFULLY the team has very good young building blocks but realistically we’re no where near being an upper echelon team in the NFL for the foreseeable future

2 years IMO. Basically a year to acquire and develop an offensive line. Also, if we draft a QB it's not uncommon for year 2 QBs to be ready to take their teams deep into the playoffs. In the meantime I think we will flirt with wildcard status similar to what the Bills did their first 3 years.

      Jaire Alexander Released

      By CarolinaLivin · Posted

      The #Panthers explored the possibility of adding Jaire Alexander, but there was never an offer made, a league source told @theobserver.   https://x.com/mike_e_kaye/status/1935436577649401872?s=46

      Young, been named Top Riser for 2025

      Yes I agree, the future RT could easily be christ. When he shocking re-signed here for the cheap, he said part of the reason was the OL coaching staff.  I've already thought too much about 2026. The RT has all the options, including resigning Motown. I was never a big fan, but he's solid and peptides and stem cells can fix a gippy knee. If he makes it though this year and wants to return, why not for 2 years 16 million?? Or like you said give the job to Christ or draft your RT...... that I feel is the best current method. With both OGs in the 20 million per cap range and Icky......ooooooooooo boy he could be the first 30 million per OLmen in NFL history. That's a huge portion of cap space for the OL, which I agree with, but in order to offset those 20 and 30 million deals... you need cheap rookie contracts. (unless Motown would take a huge pay cut and whoever the C will be).  This is the deepest OL I can recall in Panthers history.  I believe Morgan should try and trade either Kingston or Zavala.  I didn't even talk about Yosh, Tarquin, or Walton. Yosh is same age as christ and why not him as RT after good swing tackle years? Tarquin is a UDFA on the prayer program, 150,000 in guarantees and why not him in 2026? Walton seems to be a OL coach favorite, he followed the Tampa Bay staff here after 2 years there and add in one year here, he's stuck around for some reason. I think they need to spend very light on RT and Panthers have lots of options, I love it.
