What’s your overreaction hot take???

It's always felt so unnatural to me, obviously it's worked for several teams who've won it all with a 3-4, none more obvious than Denver against us but I completely agree. I hate the 3-4, I do (for now) trust Evero to make it work for us but I think it's easier to have a successful 4-3 than 3-4.

The 3-4 was the base defense for most of this team's worst seasons, sans 2010. It just doesn't work here.

Hah!  I'll see your Jordan quip and raise you:

Cam Erving validates his first round selection status by solidifying Panthers O-line.

Cam Erving proves to be a valuable piece in the panther's Offensive line room by having the flexibility to play all 5 spots on the Offensive line and sucking at every single one.

The part I've always thought but some would consider a hot take: Reich is an average at best, Rivera-esque coach that was a safe, boring hire steeped in nostalgia.

No real on-field hot take beyond that. It was the first week of preseason in the first year after complete turnover of staff, scheme changes, and picking up a rookie QB. Of course it was likely to suck.

    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
