If anyone has read any of my posts, I'm the first person to say our 1st and second team have looked like utter trash as units. Not saying there hasn't been individual performances but very dissapoiontting. Some people never expected much anyway which looks to be the good call but for us that we're a tad more than cautiously optimistic do you see us possibly getting to our goals of let's say max, this division, anything can start clicking by end of year right? N the preseason means nothing Panthers queens, stay out, the coaches said they have been disappointed. I'm going to walk into week 1 with my head in the clouds and probably walk out trying to pull it out of my ass for breaths. Someone shine hope.

Atlanta is further a long at this stage. They’re also the home team and the overall feeling right now is pretty damn cloudy for us. I’m not sure this roster is there yet going into this season. Way too many question marks , new coach , new staff new QB etc. Too many bad players on the team in my opinion and not enough game wreckers. We pretty much have only 1 guy who teams have to account for in Burns but he isn’t anything like what Peppers was for us back in the day. There’s just not enough juice on this team right now. Before preseason I thought maybe 8 or 9 wins, 10 if they’re really lucky. Now I’d say they’re a 6 or 7 win team after seeing guys compete in preseason. They’ve gotten their asses kicked 2 weeks in a row.

I won't really panic until week 5 or 6 if the players look like trash out there.  All 11 have to understand a new offense/defense and be in position every play.  All 11 on defense have to understand assignments or offenses will torch them.  I would love for this team to start out looking like world beaters, but I'm expecting a slow start.

That makes sense though... early season games the spreads are the most better friendly. Basically vegas is predicting a tie, meaning they dont have a favorite.

Yeah, I will take your word for it, and again this is why I dont gamble, if you randomly asked me what i thought the spread should be for week 1 knowing what we know (rookie qb, new 3-4, new coach, on the road etc) I would say Panthers +6

 

But I dont know poo about gambling

Maybe it will go up, but normally it only goes higher bc the bets are one sided. I have only bet at the begining of seasons bc my win rate is much higher, especially with prop betting.

You guys couldn't let my drunk thread die. Guess it's a little less gloomy than GOATS. Lol. I do get his sentiment. I'm so tired of sucking I am full guilty of reactionary posts even in the preseason. I'm holding out hope they can fix a lot of things but much more skeptical after the first two piss poor practices.

      Dan Morgan interviews this week

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Another thread where the Huddle melts down over a Bryce comment.  "Conversations" and "Bryce Young has been signed to a new long-term contract" are still far away from being the gospel.  For a fanbase that has watched two top-3 drafted QBs come here, and us move on, only to see them elevate their play elsewhere, I find it comical. Bryce is flawed but this org is damned if you do and damned if you don't with BY9.  Why would our GM and HC say anything other than supportive about their QB1. Yes, he's extended, but I truly do not think if he goes out and has a repeat of the previous seasons, that he is here beyond 2027. They're giving him every opportunity and surrounding him with a ridiculous amount of assets on both sides of the ball. If he continues to pitch 110 yd/ game and cough up the ball while everyone else is busting their ass, no way Dan keeps him beyond the extension.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Ooof, I was not a Proctor fan. I agree w/ a lot of smarter folks than me that he's more of a guard and think his weight fluctuation is going to be something to navigate. I liked Lomu a lot, but figured there would be more talented guys there at 19. I also wasn't big on bringing in a TE via the draft. If it's not a vet (Njoku) or a trade for Mayer or Kmet, I'd just as soon see what the youngsters have. No need cluttering the room with more of the same.

      Sam Darnold & Bryce Young are two very different Qbs ..just saying the last 25 years approximately 2/3 of ALL  first round Qb's  in the NFL were or are bust.so for everyone who makes it like a Sam Darnold you have two that don't make it or are a bust
