It is just preseason.

And it will be just Week 1.

I've mentioned it a couple of times already. You won't get an accurate sense of what the team truly is until around midseason. If you doubt that, just look back to a couple of years ago when we started 4-0 when were talking playoffs.

Every single season there are teams who start off looking bad but finish strong and other teams who start strong but fade. This year will be no exception. If you can't see that, or can't handle it I can't help you.

My only hope is that we fall into the first category, but I'm not putting any lofty expectations on anyone given the circumstances.

Talk to me next year...

No change...

Yeah I’m not surprised by what I just saw. They looked terrible in the preseason. I think people confuse the final score of a preseason game for the notion that the preseasOn games don’t matter. Because they do. They didn’t do anything positive in the preseason that made me think that a 63 year old washed up coach was playing his cards close.

When they needed it down 14?? Just stop.. They played great the whole game until it was clear we had to pass.. Run game had big holes and BY had all day to throw.. WR need to get open By needs to stop throwing Ints and RB need to protect the ball.. This game was is on BY and the weapons..

If you actually watch the preseason ppl were more worried about the  Oline and defense .. The Oline was a strength today and the defense was got pressure all day.. BY and the weapons were not showing they couldn’t get open or turning the ball over.. Did BY throw 1 int in the preseason??

You are the one claiming Atlanta could 'pin their ears back' but it was a 1-possession game for most of the second half and they collapsed. It was not a complete performance and not good enough, therefore was not a 'great game'. Pointing that out is not prohibitive of also acknowledging that the receiver gets sucked, Young was a young QB in his first NFL game ever, and the play calling was suspect.

I'm sorry, but it's this kind of nonsense that keeps Carolina in mediocrity. They were decent but not good enough, and the OL can improve just like everyone else.

Overall, no, OL wasn’t a problem. At least not in the game I watched. He generally had plenty of time to throw and receivers weren’t getting open.

Then you must not have watched most of the second half. They were not good enough, like the rest of the team. Still plenty of weeks to improve and I expect it will.

Literally didn’t get touched until the 4th quarter and they were down.. Other then that BY had all day and the RB had holes..

      Panthers will play starters in first 2 preseason games

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers coach Dave Canales said Friday that starters will play in the first two preseason games, stopping just short of admitting he made a mistake last season holding them out. The plan includes playing quarterback Bryce Young, who got off to a historically bad start to the 2024 regular season that got him benched after opening 0-2. Carolina opens their preseason schedule Friday at home against Cleveland, followed by an August 15 road game at Houston and August 21 home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.   Canales said he will evaluate after the first two games whether starters will play in the third game. "Kind of going through it last year, we had a mix of veteran players, but [this is] predominantly a pretty young team,'' said Canales, who has at least six new starters to the defense that was the worst in the league a year ago. "I just can't pass up the opportunities. The reps in games are valuable. "[But] it goes to the night before, when guys know they're going to go out there, they've got to make a decision to play football. So it starts the night before with the prep. You start thinking about your plan, taking care of your body, making sure you get your rest.''   https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45880676/panthers-starters-play-first-2-preseason-games-says-coach

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      You call the Cowboys purely for information, but we don't have the assets to pull off any realistic trade. Also, even if they would consider any trade, it's more likely they want to do it with an AFC team.
