"Aggregating several rankings, the Panthers come out to an average of No. 27 (last week: No. 27) in the 32-team NFL."

I didn't post much from the article. Feel free to click on it to view the entire thing. No one had us ranked higher than 26 (CBS.com) on the power poll. We received our lowest grade (30) from NFL.com. We averaged out as the 6th worst team in the the NFL. Based on the way last season ended, I'm not so sure we'd beat any of the 5 teams below us if we played today.

I know we just have to be patient and realize that Rhule's process is working, we just don't see the results yet. 🙄

No way there are that many teams worse than Carolina. From week 10 on they’ve been a dumpster fire on a train wreck in a nuclear holocaust. 

I agree.

Can anyone on this forum name 5 teams worse than we are at the present time?

JAX, DET, HOU, NYJ, and NYG are in front of us in the draft. We beat two of them to start the season, but both teams got better as the season progressed. The Giants handed us one of our worst defeats of the year. I honestly don't think we'd beat any of them if had to play them this Sunday.

We havent shown life since arizona TWO MONTHS AGO!  Literally blown out every week.  Jacksonville beat Indy who was playing for their lives, could we beat them, Nope, Next Detroit...did anyone in the poll see how they played down the stretch for Dan Campbell?  No way on earth we beat that team, they atleast had pride and were wanting to build something.  Houston and Jets are MAAAYYYBEEEs, I think Jets at this point would smash us, but Houston we could go toe to toe with.  Giants?  They skull drug us.  Falcons?  Same.  We MIGHT not be the worst current team in the NFL, but we're for fug sure in the bottom 3.

JAX, DET, HOU all played with heart at the end of the season.

Jets have a talented rookie QB that will get better if he is supported (OL, good WR)

The only team with a poor record that I think might be behind us would be the Giants.  And that's only because their starting QB got a neck injury and his health status is up-in-the-air.  

If Daniel Jones comes back fine next season, I'd say the Panthers are #32.

There should be a tournament where the bottom teams get to play for the #1 draft pick. This helps avoid tanking and gives fans a reason to watch their losing team play for something!

      Morgan & Canales

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers

      I am actually really excited about this kid. One thing that really jumped off watching his highlights was he almost is too fast or almost over pursues. You can get away with that stuff in college but the NFL these guys are stronger and more "slippery".  Little things that can be corrected but he seems to have a motor which is always a plus!

      Many teams looked at the drop-off as a reason not to select him in the first round.  Going into the 2024 season he was listed as a potential first round pick.  Morgan, IMO, based our pick on what he did in 2023 and expects him to play at the weight he played at Purdue. Morgan did this twice in this draft.  Scourton and Evans.  saw one stat on Evans that he had 58 ypg in one of his previous seasons.  Plus Notre Dame has a history of good TEs that can catch and block. Canales will 3 good TEs that all will see time on the field.
