Yea because the defense in those Darnold shitfest games actual played good enough to be ranked 2nd in the NFL coming into this game.

The defense today was bad so your comparison doesn't even make sense. 

 

Maybe the defense isn’t as good as we think. After today, I have a feeling other teams are going to exploit it just the same.

I’ll urge you to question how many top starting offenses have the defense faced this year? 

I’ll save you the trouble, the answer is 1.

2 if you include the Cardinals without their starting QB and #1 playmaker.

Tom Brady lost worse to Washington a week ago, are they not contenders?

To this point, a exception to the rule was a bad game. A blip. That’s what it was for them.

This loss was the rule for the Panthers.

It’s not just them. Plenty of good teams lose to bad teams in todays NFL.

True.

But what about urgency? The Panthers had to win this. Everyone knew this.

Just how much better does cam have to play for us to win? Because honestly it won’t get much better than this. And it certainly won’t get easier except playing the Dolphins.

Oh stop everyone and their mama was in here praising the defense as being ready for a playoff push last Sunday night.

Not true. There have been a few posters that haven't jumped in saying the defense was playoff caliber or the team as a whole for that matter. The majority of fans have said the defense was super bowl worthy or whatever though.

Someone pointed out in the game thread that anytime the Panthers have faced decent to good teams and/or QBs, the defense has been exposed. That's largely true.

Hold up. You think this is the first time the defense hasn’t performed well? We’ve invested heavily there and it still falls apart. 
 

Edit: And what the hell is the “aren’t hiding their true intentions?” People can’t have the opinion that the coaching isn’t sufficient or that the roster still has critical holes to fill?

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
