Fitterer and ultimately Tepper have given him all the resources to succeed

 

- All world coaching staff where Tepper could flex that wallet with no salary cap constraints

-Top 10 young defense

-Continuity solid o line with franchise LT

-very good cap space in 2024

-#1 overall pick to draft HIS QB

 

 this team is in way better position than any division rival and if he played his cards right he can flash onto the scene in a Brian Daboll’esque way

Your posting has gotten extremely lame and lazy. Maybe it's because of your ego. 

Frank didn't come here to coach a losing team. 

Thanks for your time.

You think fans worry about that? And strength of schedule is really overblown given strength of schedule is based on last year results not this year. With all the changes we are making we should be much better than last year so even though we could have a harder schedule we should still do better than 7 wins. You can make excuses already if you want but that is not the overall mood or expectations from most of the rest of us.

Well, I'm just referring to what our SOS ended up being after the conclusion of the 2022 season.  It was a weak schedule that we pulled those 7 win off on.  

Making excuses?  Our offense is literally in blueprint stages.  From new scheme all around to bodies.  I'm not making excuses.  I'm setting a realistic bar for what 2023 should be about. 

List our starting QB, RB, WR1 and WR2 right now and tell me anyone not a hardcore Panther fan would say we should be competing for a playoff spot this year.   I guess we technically might be given our division could be horrific.  But that would be byproduct of a bad division vs being a playoff caliber team vs the actual field. 

People setting a weird high bar for Frank on day 1 IMO.  Given him time to put together an offense before claiming it is win now time.

That is your opinion. Read the thread and you will find you are in the minority. Most times new coaches go to crap teams not ones that finish the season  7-10 and go 4-2  in their last 6 games. Truth is the division won't be strong this year and we play 6 games against division opponents. If we go 4-2 in the division you think we don't have 4 other wins in the next 11 games. Talk about a low bar and settling for mediocre.

Honestly if we don’t win the South this year there should be serious questions about Franks’ coaching. We are drafting a rookie QB who everyone thinks should flourish under the direction of this staff, we’re making the D better by finally moving Chinn where he belongs and we just added a pretty good TE who should open up the field for any WR targets we add.

yeah, we are on Panther message board.  It is going to slant optimistic. 

and sometimes it will slant crazily optimistic.  Like folks last offseason claiming Matt Rhule + Ben McAdoo was totally going to work out great!   

but yeah, I'm not the type fan that thinks Frank needs to compete for the playoffs year one.  Frank has to build his offense up.  That's my opinion.  Which is just as good as any other.   We could EASILY be breaking in a rookie QB with a weak WR1, weak WR2, okay RB and okay TE all in a brand new scheme.  Putting the bar of playoffs on the rookie QB and the team as a whole again, seems silly to me.

I'd keep my expectations low if I were you. Year one of new administration, rookie QB...Just saying.


This. New staff, rookie QB, not real offensive weapons.

Its a building year… Yeah, another one.

      Is Charlotte the worst sports city right now?

      By CamWhoaaCam · Posted

      Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.

      Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!

      You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
