I think we're significantly better, mainly due to an upgrade at QB and a huge upgrade in the coaching staff. 

People look at this team and focus 9n the fact that we picked first overall, but we bought that spot. We didn't earn it.

And once the team was handed to an at the very least competent coach, we were quite a bit better with no upgrade in QB. I think had Wilks been given the gig much earlier, we would have been a 9+ win team. That's my belief. Luck or not, we would have pulled it off.

And i think we're going to be much better with this staff and QB.

And yeah, Young might struggle, but I don't think his struggle will be as significant as most rookie QBs. Mentally he's ahead of the game and mentally is the is the area that they have the most challenge with.

I actually don't disagree that if Wilks had this team earlier we would have won more games.   But I think that is largely the competition we drew that year.  We were competing while not exactly doing what I call playing great NFL football. 

Which I mean, it could happen again.  Schedules to an extent make teams.  Good teams largely have weak schedules.  Best teams last year did. Really bad ones, tough schedules.  And the prediction on SOS more times than not is hard to predict.

      Bryce might be the most frustrating player we've ever had.

      On the page it shows sacks given up and playing time among things, Im not familiar with their market value history or how close they are. I just seen it while I was 'arm chairing GMing" and was like "holy lee *** 12.5?!?!?! for Mays?!?!"  Im totally guessing about both christ and Corbett, just think the OL group as whole really enjoys it here with the coaching staff. Everyone came back last year and that never happens.  Yea for me its too easy- edge and QB are the clear want&needs.  I've very guilty of being a "under dog" fan, its one of my biggest weaknesses. I follow the PS and nearly always pick a UDFA to "declare" the next panther ring of honor.... The feel good stories are much rarer since everyone has gotten better at finding talent, but I can not help myself.... Just to add, I am aware of this. I also know the NFL has a 35% turnover and its a true meat grinder. Now I am super happy about Simmons adding to the PS, then I recall watching him avoid contact in many plays....Thats nearly impossible to overcome as a MLB, should have been a kicker.....

      Tampa's remaining schedule

      I both did a bad job of explaining what I was trying to say and also being disingenuous. Truthfully I would love the Panthers to make the playoffs no matter how and no matter what ultimately happens in the playoffs. But I was trying to say, I'd like to see the Panthers make the playoffs because they put it all together, play great football and dominate the Bucs in a sweep, rather than get gifted the division because the Bucs completely implode and lose all their games. Cause in that situation, we just look like the beneficiary of a historically bad division and the outlook isn't quite as bright. But the last thing I want is the Panthers to just lose out and get a better draft pick.

      Okay gentlemen, REAL talk...

      I want to ask you.  Did each of those TD passes Young threw Sunday meet this criteria?  Young's swing pass to Chubba was perfectly placed and quick.  Both Coker and T-Mac's TDs were well placed touch passes.    Bryce has had many small window completions.   Analytics are a great source of knowledge but in the end game time situations call for quick deceive decisions and analytics go out the door.
