I am not sure if it is OK, so I'll wait for mod approval, but I watched Locked On Panthers podcast yesterday on Youtube and Jonathan Stewart was the guest co-host. 

#28 has some really interesting comments about the team and made a lot of sense.  He also repeated what many of us have said throughout the preseason that Rhule didn't give our O-line much time to Gel.  He also said this team didn't have an identity.

Mods please let me know if it is ok to include the link.

Thanks, sorry about the duplicate post.  I didn't scroll all the way down on the front page.  

This was very interesting though because JS has been in the locker room and his insight of what's going on or in our case what is not going on.  

I was very interested in his take on our identity.

The team has no identity. The 1st Rhule year they tapped into a little of that scrappy underdog that would be difficult to deal with, and was not an easy win on the schedule. They showed some promise. It never came to fruition though, and now we are looking at a perennial loser that bumbles and stumbles though games. Unfortunately its time to face the facts, we are that perennial loser, working on 4 straight seasons of 5 wins or less, and that makes us the Jets of the NFC. So that can be our identity now. It fits.

You have to put the blame on Rhule.  Someone posted the Panthers walking out of the tunnel the other day.  It was like a funeral.  There was no emotion, no energy and pretty much no nothing.   Hell, an LBGTQ parade has more energy.   It was a sad sight. 

Stewart made the comment about the talent we have on this team.  Those guys have to step up in Rhule absence.  Show some damn fire, emotion even pride.

Under Rivera, we may not have had the best team but damn there was some fight to them.

      Xavier Legette is the face of the NFL at the Kentucky Derby

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
