Loved Nick Goings. He will always have a special place in my heart... Dude was all heart.

I still wonder what that 2004 team could have done in the playoffs. We had some real fight on the roster that year to overcome so much adversity.

They were in the 'playoffs' for about 8 weeks before the season ended, so I think we saw it. They just ran out of gas vs the Saints in week 17. Loved watching that team though and how they all came together midseason, with Moose looking absolutely dominant during that back stretch and Goings just getting it done.

To be fair, we had no answer for Michael Vick before Thomas Davis so I find it hard to count that, but yeah. I think they could have made a run in the NFC at least.

People really tend to forget just how good Moose was that year, too. He led the entire league in yards and touchdowns outright and was 6th in receptions. Got shockingly close to a triple crown a year before Steve Smith got his.

I feel bless to have lived through that era of football as well as the Newton Kuechly era... I remember sitting at the bar the after winning the NFC Championship game and thinking, I need to cherish these days because they aren't going to last forever... And now here we are in a constant state of suffering.

You never know how good you had it until it's gone. We went from only a handful of sub-7 win seasons in our history to wishing for even a few.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      Nobody on the huddle is saying we have an elite group offensively across the board. They aren't great. They're young. If you are expecting someone to agree with your position of blaming everyone around Bryce Young nearly three full seasons into his career you are going to be left holding the bag save for a handful of people who act like they are paid to defend his honor. Bryce Young is not a guy who has had to claw and fight his way into starting jobs in football. He's had the best to work with and been gifted roles since he was a teenager. The Panthers have one of the youngest rosters in the league and with us needing an infusion of young defensive talent in the upcoming draft we're only going to get younger. We need a QB who possesses the ability to elevate those around him. If you can't agree with me on that then there's nothing further to discuss.

      All Bryce and the Panthers had to do was split with the Saints and a rookie QB. The bar was so low. They even had a whole bye week to prepare. The time for singing kumbaya was before that game. Anyone still talking about Bryce earning a second contract 43 games into his career is living a fantasy. He might get one from the Tepper owned Panthers but he's damn sure not earned it.
