It would be embarrassing for people who hang out on message boards and Panthers Twitter. Otherwise, what difference does it actually make in terms of the future of the team?

Well, it would mean we suck worse than anyone else and our #1 overall QB wasn't good enough to keep us from being the worst team in the league. That would seem to bode poorly for the future.

You're not wrong, but the way I view it if you're picking top-5 it really doesn't matter if it's #1 or #5 if you've traded the pick.

I wouldn't be surprised if the defense continues to look....the same. 

I am actually sort of impressed with what Ejiro has done despite the injuries to Horn, Jackson, Thompson, Chinn, Bell, Woods, and Houston all at some point this season- he hasn’t done a bad job. 
 

- The GM gave him Brown, Tuttle, a back up from the Broncos, and two guys from the Patriot’s practice squad to be his DL.

-Same GM signed a 34 year old Houston who has 4 tackles and .5 sacks as his Edge. 
 

-Same GM didnt shore up any positions with depth that he knew were filled with injury prone players.

- Offense is doing him zero favors sustaining drives and keeping them fresh. 
 

Defense held the Colts to 13 points, the offense gave them 14.

That GM seems to be an issue.  At some point Tepper might realize it....

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
