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

    • The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at. 
    • If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep
    • I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
