Roster has been improved on the O-line and DB side. 
Weaknesses are potentially D-line and definitely QB. 
A bad D-line can bring down even a good DB group. 
Same with a bad QB can bring down the entire offense. 
I agree and disagree with 5.5 wins. This team could be a playoff team or be competing for the number 1 pick.

I think our dline will be ok, but i am a glass half full person on this board. This article likes us too:

Fantasy article but still....

The Panthers' defense was underrated in 2021. Yes, the team struggled, but the offense holds the majority of the blame. The Panthers' defense finished 15th in DVOA and was middle of the pack in sacks. The defensive line did a good job getting pressure as they finished second in pass rush win rate. 

This unit has a ton of upside heading into 2022. Brian Burns is a star in the making, and Derrick Brown and Yetur Gross-Matos have the potential to break out. There is not a ton of depth, but watch out if the starters stay healthy.

He was perfectly healthy in 2019, in fact he had a record breaking season and we still won 5 games.  Running backs dont win games anymore in the NFL.  Its a new day.

Yeah, that's another thing.......

It's fine to say you want to be a road grading, run it down your throat offense but name the amount of teams in the NFL that have great success with that strategy.

Regardless of our running proficiency, we will need some competent QB play.

We've won 5 games the past 2 seasons, the question should be....What the fug are you watching? 

The key word in my op was “HEALTHY”, you know free of injury. I mean damn man, he’s the best RB and receiver on the team, the best dual threat in the league. So yeah, when your best player is out you’re going to lose most of those games. What happens if CMC plays in the Dallas, Philly and Minnesota stretch last year?

Honestly, I'm looking at our schedule, our coaches and our players.

I've got three maybe wins, New York Giants, Falcons, Falcons. I'd throw in one win to a team that will be surprisingly bad (not sure who it will be, but there's always one of them). 

I can't get behind even five wins. Steelers? Nope. Even with questions at QB, they're a better team and better coached. They can just keep handing the ball off and run us over. Detroit? That's a bad team getting better. We're a bad team spinning its wheels. Seahawks? Better coaching and they take us after a bye wherein we may have just lost our coach and folks are making January vacation plans on the team.

Yeah, I love some of our additions this off season, but I just have no faith in the coach. That being said, I'd love for him to prove me wrong, wrong, wrong, but that ain't going to happen.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!

      Inappropriate relationship with a team staffer, followed up with some stalking behavior, and ultimately a felony home invasion charge from a visit at her apartment that culminated in him threatening her life and his as well.
