Draft screwed…. Season screwed…. Coaching screwed…. Future screwed

Actually it still is a good idea to draft a QB anyway (throw darts at a board, so to speak). 

I agree if there is one there they believe in.  I wasnt really saying not to take a qb, just that that seemed like the clear giant hole to make us competitive on the roster and some other holes may have shown up just as glaring if not more.

That’s the Carolina Panther way, forever mirrored in the 7-13 position draft board

Franchise QB hopes fade away

 a loaded draft board opportunity for a good but not elite DE we could have traded away will now hamper our cap as his agent knows he has us behind the 8 ball

 we’re not a hot prospect for a top flight coach


but I’m real glad for Hershel in Gastonia and WayneBobby in Shelby got to enjoy watching this team ‘fight’ for a playoff spot

 

this was our year to take then nose dive just like Jimmy C year was the year to take the nosedive except we totally botched it

 here’s to another 3-5 years with you guys as a semi mediocre franchise

Yeah, because no franchise QB has ever been drafted between picks 7-13

I disagree. Matt Rhule’s first year was the year to take a nose dive. We knew at that point that the other teams in the division were just a couple years away from being garbage. All 3 had old QBs they were trying to make one or two final runs with. We had a head coach who was new to the NFL and an OC who hadn’t OC’ed at any level. This was the year that we should have been winning the division with a young and hungry group, and maybe Trevor Lawrence had we tanked hard enough.

But no, Mr. 7 year plan thought he was the second coming of Chuck Noll. But I think I’ve finally figured it out. This whole time he was talking in dog years, which much better explains him blowing his load on retread QBs every year.

28 year old QB with NFL playoff success, a QB drafted in the 3rd round or later, and an undrafted QB that have turned a 2 to 3 star talent team around/taken them to the top at every opportunity (HS/JUCO/UNI/PRO) is the recipe for QB success. Ignore the combine and big school QBs without GWD.

If only we could sign aqueel glass, what a missed opportunity

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
