We were 11-5 in 2017. We've had 4 losing seasons straight. 4 = 10? Also, 1997-2002 was a pretty bad run. Best season in there was 8-8. Are we worse off now then we were in that stretch? Maybe. But it's definitely haven't been no decade of losing. Put down the pipe bro. Or get a watch or something.

I think that right now, we’ve got the most talented team, top to bottom, we’ve had since ‘17. Time to make some noise. It’s put up or shut up for a lot of these guys. CMC included. If he can’t stay healthy this year he’s probably gone.

Shoot I was thinking today that if we had had Zylstra in 2017 instead of Bersin we probably beat NO.

Do you read idiot noob? I said almost a decade. But if it makes you feel better it's been half a decade since we were in the playoffs and almost a decade since we won a playoff game. That's 7 years to be exact. Unless we somehow win a playoff game this year that's a longer span than any other time period we have gone and yes there is a lot of mediocrity throughout Panthers history but this is shaping up to be the worst period. Even if Rhule is fired it will be another 2 or 3 years before we will see success. That's a good 10 years without a playoff win.

This will get taken down but yeah I trust Baker's handoff game over Darnold's possible fumbles. Totally different energy/swag for such a small thing as a handoff. CMC is the highlight obviously but it has a different vibe when you know Baker could roll out and drop a bomb on any snap

Baker was sacked more than Sam last year.  He played injured and still had 8 more TD's than Sam.

Here's how Sam does with plenty of OL protection.  Watch the first minute:

Wasn't  Mayfield's Browns favorite to win their division?  Or had enough talents to do so?  How is this apples to apples?

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
