Eh, wasn’t that bad, kind of like the Miami game, we were never in it and we were already on the downturn. The Cowboys, Eagles and Vikings games hurt. We legitimately had a chance to be 6-0 if things fell our way on just a few plays. Amazingly, with Sam and yes I know Sam helped lose but we were weren’t dead yet. After those 3, definitely felt like we might win a few more but we weren’t building on 2020.

Depends on what hurts you.

We had a stretch there of teams that we absolutely should have or at least potentially could have beaten.

That made my head hurt 😕

God, Ron drove me insane. He somehow thought it was virtuous to try to milk a 10 point lead for three quarters. He seemed to enjoy blowing leads. He even alluded to (paraphrasing) "liking close games where he relied on the defense" in an interview one time. 

Playing not to lose = Mr. .500. Ask John Fox. (However, Fox or Rivera would be preferable to our current 'playing not to win' regime.)

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
