How do we feel?

  1. 1. Are we going up or down headed into the offseason?

I feel like I am back on the Riverboat with Ron picking in the mid teens and winning moral victory games. 

Proud the team picked it up, but they weren't clutch enough to get it done.

I think we are on the way up *if* we draft well.  Secondary was supposed to be a strength and it was a major weakness today.  I like our OL and think it will only get better if we keep the guys together.  Darnold as backup on a decent contract, otherwise be aggressive and see if you can land a franchise QB somehow and roll with Corral as the backup.

TE, DE, LB, and C are all needs IMO....especially when we aren't going to be able to draft Young or Stroud.

This is more of a just where we are now. Without any moves this offseason. I haven’t seen improvement like this since, at least what I feel, since our last trip to the playoffs.

I am in the same spot as before the game, waiting on those things.

When we see what direction we are headed, I will know whether to have hope or not.

I don't think the Panthers are hopeless, but we need to have a really good draft and add a few pieces via free agency to be more competitive. The only thing that is kinda depressing is that we still lack a franchise QB and it's unlikely we will find one this offseason.

Honestly, darnold has shown some growth. Not starter growth but stop gap playoff birth growth. Id really like us not to focus on a QB this draft and instead put all of the pieces around them in place. Unless there is a cam/mahomes candidate in this draft. I feel like this is how even good draftees go to die. They don’t have a good coach/OL or supporting body.

Pre built defense?  Due tell

It’s an outside opinion the pieces are there. It would be great to see what a full staff can due unlike our current patchwork.

Burns, Brown, Luvu, and Horn are great foundational pieces. I know you won’t agree but Ben has his ear to the ground about opinions around the league.

      NHL Olympics Thread (Or just Olympics in general)

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!

      NFLTR: Panthers Offseason:Team Needs, pending free agents, draft picks

      Tennessee isn't trading a QB on a 2nd round contract that has starting experience.  That's bad business.

      OT is the top priority as it is both an immediate and future need.  I wouldn't be past trading up slightly to get the guy we want.  You need that rookie contract right now.  Icky is a dead 17.5 million for the season.  Morton is 20+ mil for the season, Hunt is 20+ mil for the season.  There needs to be forward thinking regarding the future.   Caleb Lomu is a left Tackle, he's a solid prospect, he may be the best pick for us now and in the future.  I would seriously consider cutting Hunt after 2026, and let Lomu and Icky fight for the LT job, loser moves inside.  Icky's future may be at guard after this injury anyway.  If Damien Lewis keeps up his level of play he will need to be paid sooner rather than later.  Yosh and BC can be our top two depth OL at an affordable price.  You will need to look at OT again in 2027. Getting an EDGE for the sake of getting an EDGE outside of the top 10 is pretty risky.  I wouldn't be against eyeing someone like Cashius Howell, Derrick Moore, or TJ Parker in the 2nd (even if we trade a future pick to move up) or DDS in the third. I'd love to see us try to sign both Leo Chenal and Matt Millano in FA.   Chenal for the blitzing element we are missing from our LB corps and Millano for his elite coverage.  They could both work in tandem.  Remember, our FO has deep ties to both KC and Buffalo. I love thinking about the draft, but until Free Agency hits, we are clueless.  Looking at the strength of FA and the draft, OL is priority #1, LB #2, and EDGE #3.  We know what happens to Bryce when protection falls apart.
