We have the 3rd ranked total defense in the league. 7th in points allowed per game and this is with an offense that is horrificly bad and putting our defense in short fields from turnovers and 3 and outs. We have the pieces of a Super Bowl caliber defense. It’s why the GM made moves like we were a playoff team. And then Darnold imploded. This fanbase is reactionary from drive to drive. 
 

 

We also started playing better offenses... We've only played 2 decent offenses and both had huge games against us... And our D couldn't buy a stop in those games at critical moments.

Injuries have hurt us but we've invested a poo ton in D...  Shaq is big though so maybe his return will get that killer instinct back for the unit.

Offense is miserable... But I expect an elite defense to get stops at end of games and overtime.

Im going off what he showed us when he played which he was outstanding.

He didn't do much those first three games because the opposing QBs rarely looked to his side of the field. And it wasn't because he locked it down, but because they didn't have time to go through their reads.

Beyond that, you can't say someone is stepping up, which is the current tense of the word, when they aren't currently playing.

      It's rare enough for a running back to tear the same ACL twice. There's not much of a sample size on the recoveries. And of course Dobbins has missed a lot of time--he was injured twice. That number will drop as his career continues, and even if it doesn't, that doesn't necessarily mean it has anything to do with the prior injuries. Dobbins just started and played well for a playoff team all year until he was injured by a hip-drop tackle. Surely his ACL recoveries didn't contribute to his completely random foot injury caused by an illegal tackle? Again, I'm confused why everyone is being so definitive that there's 'very little chance' of any meaningful contribution ever when the greatest counterpoint ever played for us. Thomas Davis tore the same knee over and over again and was basically fine. As for the roster-building stuff, we'll see what happens with Chuba and Dowdle at the end of the year, but Etienne's not going to factor into this. Either Brooks comes back, in which case we've already seen more from him than we have from Etienne, or he doesn't. But Etienne's not forcing him off the team. If anything, Etienne's current role is his absolute floor.

      Then I would assume disingenuous. Why on earth would you consider this an "exciting" time to be a Panthers fan? Let me ask this, how old are you and how long have you been an NFL fan?

      An ESPN writer had a good breakdown of teams that were likely to come back to earth(KC and Redskins were two of them) based on outlier results in 2024 in close games. I think that has a lot to do with it. Found it: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts
