Help me, I'm feeling optimistic.

I've got a feeling we're going to watch an improved offense only to see the defense go backwards.

Definitely think we're gonna have a repeat of last season (early start, right down to the QB getting revenge against his last team game one) until the real playoff contenders (Cowboys last year, 49ers this year) let the Panthers know whats up.

There's at least a reasonable path to potential success now when looking at the roster, especially in an overall weak NFC.

The massive hurdle to overcome is still Matt Rhule. He either needs to prove this year that he's figured out this college to NFL transition or he needs to get sent packing. No more free passes.

This is basically the whole reason I'm not all that optimistic.  With the exception of QB, some big improvements were made in necessary places (not at all sold on Baker). But as long as that guy has control my optimism has the mute button pressed.

Still more inclined to watch this year than i thought I would be.

    • No one is eliminated yet.   But some are in a race to the bottom, it is too early to call that one too. Where are we headed? Are the Ravens really gonna bottom out all year? would you really say they are in that race to the bottom?  The race really hasn’t started is more my angle. 
    • Technically sure we are in the race but everyone else is too. Will there even be a real race between us and TB - because a wild card coming from the NFCS seems unlikely.  I wonder if the head dudes really believe we have a shot or are we in a developmental year. And that evaluation is sort of fluid at this early stage. 
    • I think less for the top round people, everyone knows who they are and the GMs go in person to their pro days and stuff.  And in Marty’s case  specifically he didn’t come up as a scout, he moved from the newspaper office to the NFL front office, in contrast with a guy like Gettleman who came up the scout ladder.     The sheer volume of players when you get into the 3rd day and undrafted, I’d be leaning on them for a lot of help.  I am curious about it how that really works after they submit their reports and it gets into narrowing the players down to a smaller group.
