sure they are obtainable, but its not realistic, that was more of a generic type coach speak and I suspect you know this.  Of course he is going to say the goal is to win, why wouldnt he say that?

I think if our schedule was hard it wouldn't be realistic, but it is honestly just so soft after the bye, like I was just saying, we have Houston, Indy, Chicago, Tennessee, Tampa. we could easily be .500 by just beating garbage teams and stealing one win when we enter December. And from there we have our run game, defense, and talented rookie with another college football season of time under his belt.

I'm more optimistic about the schedule than the offensive roster at the end of the day. No way does our run game get worst after what they did last year.

Noted and we have discussed and acknowledged that.  However there is also a possibility that we go into the bye something like 1-5, 0-6.  That would be tough to turn around.  No true easy games before the bye

I see it as the exact opposite........Panthers will start out strong and do well through through the first half of the year and fall flat through the balance of the season lucky to end up even. 

Reasons?

Simple.........the wear and tear of injuries.............and no depth with the offensive line is really going to bit them in the ass. 

That is the reality of the situation.

here's the thing about this season, yes we have a brand new coaching staff and a lot of new young players that's going to take some time to develop 

but, our division is trash and our schedule is somewhat manageable

we don't have a first round pick next year, so our goal should at least try to win the division and build from there

The coaches, the players, the team wants to win now, but their keeping their expectations realistic, with hopes of exceeding them. Can't ask them for more then that, no.matter how we personally feel. 

It's just reality. When you have to blow an already mediocre team up to rid it of years of bad coaching, player development and drafting, what do you think is going to happen? 

No amount of pumping themselves to think they are SB bound is going to overcome that. 

I laugh when I here that "this team almost made the playoffs last season so thay better this season or everyone needs to go".  Fool, that's what they just did.

Fans are not known for patience, but that's what they are gonna need this season.  You cannot turn a turd into a diamond necklace overnight.

      I swear, I don’t watch hardly any college ball and hadn’t watched him. When I went to the videos I swear it took me 10 minutes. If that, to see the future with him.

      That's only one of the posts you've made trashing DB my guy. At least half your posts since the season started all revolve around complaining about others opinions and complaining about the huddle and every single time it is about Bryce Young criticism. If you're going to go well out of your way to bash cornerstone players and leaders like Derrick Brown while not offering the same scathing criticism for the guy who had THREE turnovers in that same Jaguars loss then you are fully a clown who deserves to be ridiculed into oblivion.

      I honestly don’t know. I think he can be a good QB. At the very least he deserves a real chance with some actual WR’s and a TE worth a damn  Our TE room is straight ass. Our pass blocking his rookie year and this year has been ass. He’s never had more than 1 reliable target on the field with him at a time.  And some f’n how he’s we’re 9-8 since he’s come back from the benching. This team is starting to win and he’s part of that. His ability to extend plays and maneuver around in the pocket is overlooked I haven’t made a decision on 5th year option but if the option is 30 and the franchise tag is 40… I may roll the dice and see what year 4 has in store. However let’s see how we finish this year first
