A loss to the Saints on MNF would be as bad a start as the Panthers can get.

If this was a rebuild why didn’t we take 2 1sts  and 3rd for Burns?  

Because you still need parts for a functional rebuild? I agree we shoulda been paid Brian but but you need...some value you can't always think you'll hit on the mystery box.

Team went 6-6 under Wilks last year with Matt Rhule’s rejects. If this “all star” coaching staff can’t at least match that then the Panthers made yet another a major mistake. 

Not even close to the same offense as last year save the o-line. Losing D.J. and replacing his value with an oft injured wr and and old injured wr has been the biggest change. We also have a rookie QB. Say what you will abt Sam but at least at the end of last season he was playing he knew what he could and couldn't do.

We had what, 2 wins against teams with a winning record?  Can’t exactly compare win totals only since the schedule difficulty changes.

I've honestly tempered my expectations for the season when our GM publicly came out and told us to. Defense is ballin but the offense is playing like a unit that is brand new.

That said, I don't the Saints are as good as some have made them out to be, that defense is old,  but I also don't know who covers Olave so we'll see.

    • All these rankings have more to do with the writers love or hate for a team.  Morgan, IMO, has done a really good job at building this team.  Yeah, there are a couple of whiffs but for the most part he has done quite well drafting and signing free agents.  22 is a bit low but it's a stupid opinion based on how little a writer knows about the Panthers. 
    • When I saw that I was thinking the same thing.  If Evero does have a great season and gets hired as a head coach I wouldn't mind see McD as our DC.  If we do poorly as a team, I definitely would want him to be the front runner for HC.
    • But it's not about not upsetting a player under contract, it's about not causing a rift in the locker room. The players love Bryce, whether as a person or a player doesn't matter.  You can't spend a Top 10 pick on a QB and then still start your #1 overall pick in the last year of their contract. That act alone will cause a massive locker room rift/distraction that would be unavoidable.  Some players will question why you "wasted" a Top 10 pick on a QB you're not going to start instead of someone who can help right away.  While others will question why we are keeping Bryce around for the season when it's clear he's not the future guy at that point. It would just make for a bad start to the rookie's career while causing locker room distractions.  Again, I'd bet this has never happened in this league before with any 1st round QB, let alone the #1 overall pick, and there is a reason for it, which is that it would be epically stupid to do. And I used the Vikings as the example as they're the closest I can think of, because again, there isn't a direct comparison as nobody has ever done it because it's that dumb of an idea (no offense lol).
