a legit ground game and a Top 10 Defense- we went to the Superbowl..

2003 - Delhomme/Smith/Moose, Davis/Foster & #8D

2005 - Delhomme/Smith, Davis/Foster/Goings all injured & #3D

2008 - Delhomme/Sh!t, Double Trouble & #18D

we NOW have Matt Moore (with more experience), one of the best rushing attacks in the NFL (if not #1) and a Top 10 Defense..

if we make a #2 WR the main focus of this offseason, resign key players and add another DT/DE- we are definitely Superbowl contenders.. i think i am in the camp of lets keep Fox for one last go round..

Cowher will still be there waiting for us next year- for those of you wanting him.. he basically our b!tch begging us to hire him.. we know he wants to be here- so we have all the leverage in our favor when it comes to Cowher..

Still say if we go and win Superbowl 45 Fox can write his own contract pretty much and will stay in Carolina. I mean why leave a winning team to rebuild another? He really can't blame JR for not giving him a new contract this year, can he? With a potential lock out in 2011. This is just smart business on JRs part and if Fox can't see that then maybe he does need to leave.

I'm certain that Fox is smart enough to understand that.

The Cats flew under the radar in 03, Won most games by the skin of their pants and choked on a kick off to spit it all back out!

Don't take that the wrong way, I loved that Panthers Team, Loved watching that season! I still had football drinking buddies and lots of crap talking all week.

For me a season like that will probably never be repeated, even if we do win a superbowl.

However, In 03 Everyone else in the league was like "who are these guys"

Thats no longer the case, teams have been prepping for Fox style ball for awhile now.

The truth is this last team was better than the 03 Cats.

If the Best chance players and the play calling had been anything like the last 5 games, even with injuries for the full season.

That team had a shot at least!

Hopefully they don't "fix" too much for next year!

Well ALL IMHO that is :idea:

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.

      Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
