Adjusted Expectations

At 4-5 with a stretch of winnable games ahead of us, we could feasibly have 7-8 wins by the time we hit Buffalo.

Playoffs are a hot topic again now that QB1 is in the building, but I wonder if securing the front end of back-to-back winning seasons might be the best of a bad situation?

Say we win 9 games and miss the playoffs.  That would still be some decent mojo going into 22 with Cam and Co.

A chance for Cam to be the first Carolina QB with B2B winning seasons and a playoff berth?

The story is writing itself.

Here are some facts that people are forgetting:

1. Cam lost a starting position to the fourth rookie QB taken in the draft.

2. Cam seemed to have throwing issues and was incapable of hitting the deep ball.

3. Cam was not picked up for a half season. 

Cam has 8 games to show the world he can still play.  That is where we are.  Forget 2015---forget 2017, the last good year he had.  Lets pull and pray for Cam to be fully recovered and back to some resemblance of his former self.

He played well in the preseason and training camp I a pretty sure. Pats just wanted to see Jones right away because they were impressed enough with him. Also, he had multiple offers that he turned down and was also un vaccinated for a while.

I can't tell of the line was that bad or it was sam or a combination of both.

To be honest that was some of the worst poo I have ever seen.

It was both. What’s going to happen the next few weeks is the offense is going to get a little better but still have issues.

All the Darnold people who bitched about the line are going to blame Cam and all the people who blamed Darnold are going to bitch about the line.

    • at some point, though, you just have to suck it up and accept it and deal with the bad deal you got.  you go through funks where you keep making mistakes and hope that you get it figured out sometime soon, but in the learning process you realize you could have done some things better but you're stuck with decisions you make. you have two choices...whine about it or just brush it off and hope can make the situation you put yourself work. i know a lot of people in here have probably never experienced or dealt with failure much in their lives, but i have and i learned to just suck it up and try to make the best of the situation you've got yourself in because you realize that you're stuck with it for a while. doesn't do any good to keep harping over what you wish you had done better. you already know that. now it's just about moving forward from here and making the best of it and hoping you can make something of it. it's the easiest thing in the world to look at where Bryce falls short...and yes, that was intentional. everyone knows that and all that is done is beating that horse laying on the ground. what takes some work is trying to see how it can work and if they have done and are doing things to help the situation get better. 
    • I completely agree. Guys like David Carr and Darnold have all the potential in the world but really could have benefited from sitting for a few years.
    • I will go to my grave thinking that some qbs simply need to sit for a spell and not start immediately and that having multiple head coaches and oc's in the first few years is a sure fire way to ruin a qb.  Having to learn new schemes, new terminology etc while having to learn to lead in the nfl is simply too much for the majority of qbs.  I know it sucks for the fans but look at KC situation.  That had a great vet mentor to mahoomes and simply let him learn with absolutely no pressure in his rookie year.  Not sure why more teams are not following that model.
