When we weren’t getting screwed by Pineiro, we were getting screwed by the refs.

We have progressively gotten better the past three weeks, the team on the field today would have beat the team we had last week. This game would have never been close with Rhule. 

Winnable game next week and a rematch with the Falcons right after. Still 9 games left. I actually came away from this game with confidence, I haven’t seen this much fight out of the team in years.

You CALM DOWN!!!!

I don’t like to lose this way but what are the expectations? What is the long term vision? Fix the DNA disaster that was Matt Rhule, in three weeks? In the long run, this loss could mean the difference in a draft spot. Like how close we were to Herbert. In a perfect world, I’d love to win under any circumstance, but I understand that real, meaningful, future building wins aren’t really really on the table. Not with Pj Walker, Sam Darnold, or Baker Mayfield. Like I said, take any winning expectation and tamper it. If we get them, awesome, if we don’t , look at the bright side. It’s a positive when you look long term spectrum.

The expectation is to win. The team has been losing these kinds of close games for DECADES but really since the second half of 2018 the curse is really bad. I could list so many games that are a mirror image of this game over the last 4 years. Panthers have lost ALL of them. 

It is really more than just bad luck at this point. The team is cursed. Something is just very wrong with this franchise.

I was in a sea of red at this falcons bar. Myself and 2 others were in panthers gear. I want the tank, but when PJ hit DJ I damn near spilled my drink and knocked over my hoookahh jumping up. Today was fun. I’m not upset about the loss, but it was good to see us compete. The last 7 mins of the game were real fun

I’m not EXPECTING wins after ridding of a coach (albeit , the worst I’ve ever seen) and the teams best player. I was vocal last week when we beat tampa because it’s awesome to see the team fight and get a win. The way we lost was comical, but I’d just rather look forward with a positive lens than kick myself for the loss. Atlanta isn’t going FAR either, they can have these false hope wins, because they’re due for a real rebuilding, as well. Similar spot as us. They’re prolonging the inevitable more than we are.

I will also add that I think it’s funny that we blame a kicker and refs when we had to have a 62 yard TD with 20 seconds and no timeouts left to even tie the game. Are we really going to act like that Hail Mary is a common play? We got pretty lucky to even score before DJ pulled his helmet off. Also, Woods clearly interferes with Byrd well within FG range before the end of regulation. The refs swallowed their whistle on that play. Eddie blew it, DJ won it the blew it but we had some luck and ref help to even get to overtime.

I feel like we were the better team (pick 6), but we do look through rose colored glasses and miss that we got some help as well.

Bro, the refs missed not one, but TWO blatant calls (false start and holding) on the Falcons go ahead TD to even put them in that position. Not to mention the rest of the no holding calls when the Falcons were grabbing all damn day, but then called everything in their power against us where PJ had to complete multiple 3rd and longs to even get a go ahead TD. Make no mistake, refs fugged us hard today.

      How long do you feel it takes for a head coach to turn a team around?

      Canales has his msjor issue not doing the obvious regarding running Dowdle but with an average QB we would be in the playoffs with an average QB.

      1. fug TikTak, I ain't clicking that stupid poo. 2. This is really very situationally dependent. Coaching is a huge part but sometimes you step into a scenario where a lot of building needs to happen that is largely out of your control  Recent examples(Last season's hiring cycle): 1. Ben Johnson Johnson chose the OVERWHELMINGLY best open coaching job due to a combination of solid ownership, a solid front office and the most talented roster of the open jobs from that cycle. Negatives were, insanely stacked division. Results have so far indicated that this coaching change has been a massive boost. 2. Mike Vrabel Vrabel went a different direction. He went to a franchise that has solid ownership, a mediocre front office and one of the worst roster in the NFL. However, he has a track record of NFL head coaching success AND lucked into one of the easiest schedules in NFL history(I believe 3rd easiest). Even with that caveat, a clear indicator that coaching has been a huge boost. 3. Pete Carroll Carroll chose one of the NFL's most voliate franchises. Notoriously bad ownership, very bad front office and a terrible roster. But, Carroll is a HOF caliber NFL HC with success at every stop. At the moment, coaching has not been able to overcome the apparent obstacles. In fact, it's been a complete diaster to the extent that Carroll has already fired multiple coaches. One could certainly argue that pethaps Pete has lost his touch but regardless, this coaching change didn't result in a turnaround and Carroll's future there seems in doubt. 4. Aaron Glenn Glenn's first HC opportunity was a doozy. Near worst ownership, a mediocre front office(at best) and a talented core group of players on an underwhelming roster. This experiment has been quite the ride to date. Glenn's personnel decisions have seemingly led to multiple close game losses(2-5 in games decided by one score or less) and the FO decided to have a roster firesale prior to the trade deadline for a wealth of draft capital. The question will be if Glenn will be given the time to actually see this future draft capital realized, now that a significant chunk of the talented core is not longer there. Coaching has not made a difference but is the franchise now setting him up to fail further? 5. Liam Coen Coen picked a mixed bag. Terrible ownership, a remade front office he essentially had a hand in selecting(or at the miminum influenced) and a middling roster. The early results show promise even if the roster shows significant flaws(and Coen shows visible frustration with his "franchise" QB every Sunday). Could be close to turning a 4 win team into a playoff berth. Coaching has mattered. 6. Brian Schottenheimer This was resoundingly viewed as a bad hire but it's also under challenging circumstances. Bad ownership in the sense that the ownership is also the front office, a future Tepper dream I assume. Very talented but very flawed roster. The initial results have been...interesting. A Cowboys team that was a bad 7-10 after a previous streak of three 12 win seasons is now....mediocre? Couple that with wild roster changes prior to the start of the season and up to the trade deadline and it makes for an incomplete picture. It's not much progress but it doesn’t appear to be regressing either. TBD. 6. Kellen Moore Moore chose the most challenging of all openings. The Saints are in the midst of a simulateous roster teardown and attempted rebuild. Decent ownership, a mixed bag in the front office(great at evaluating draft talent, less so in free agency and in salary cap management). The Saints have been awful but, they were expected to be awful. To that note, they were net sellers before the trade deadline. It was reported that Moore secured an agreement that this is long term building effort prior to taking the position so his status seems safe even while the team flounders week to week. Difficult to grade this now as the entire scenario seems to be a long term strategy. TBD.

      I think he has started to build a culture here.  I think if we had a qb with no limitations we would be seeing a lot more with the offense.  I think most of the coaches that come in and instantly win went to teams that were underachieving previously based on roster talent level.  Based on our roster talent,  we werent underachieving,  we were just bad.
