2024 - bad football team with the right staff and a few players

2025 - OK team with an improving roster likely including a new QB

2026 - wild card maybe?

This is pretty much bang-on my projection as well. I sincerely doubt Bryce is our starter in 2025. I kindly doubt he finishes next season as our starter barring a miracle. 2025 will be when we start to turn things around, and we should be a wildcard contender by '26.

This, of course, assumes Tepper continues what appears to be a Scroogian turnaround in terms of his involvement in football decisions. Otherwise, just copy and paste 2023 over and over.

And it's not a weak one either.  While Reich was here, we averaged 15 points per game, with him gone we averaged 10.  Not saying Reich was the answer, but the staff just didn't have chemistry at all.

...and got shut out in back to back games.

There's an argument to be made that the Thomas Brown hire is what doomed Frank Reich.

As much as I dislike the job Brown did, Reich did it to himself with his piss-poor attitude of doing what he wanted and not what was best for the team. 

This team did pretty much everything wrong and there is more than enough blame for everyone involved.

Good. 
 

He was the worst GM we have ever had as an organization, and during his tenure here, he was the worst in the league. I was scared they were going to keep him around.  Glad Tepper got him outta here. 
 

Continue cleaning house, and listen to what the coaching firm has to say.

Brown was reported to have been a Tepper pick, and ultimately a poor one.

He wasn't ready to be an OC. His play designs were bad, his playcalling off, and there's speculation he was one of the people complaining behind Reich's back. And that's not even mentioning his wife's social media stunt.

If there's an MVP for this season's coaching dysfunction, it's probably Brown.

One of if not the worst gm of all time.  Mrscott weeps

If he never gets another GM job, I think it would be safe to say his list of draft picks, trades and FA signings is top of the worst GM in history list.

So glad we are moving on and when you look at his 3 years of moves, it’s comical to think that he still had supporters this season because we LOL still hadn’t seen what he could do on his own.

I’m still upset that we didn’t toss him with Rhule and had a competent GM in place to review our trade offers and make the necessary moves to rebuild and get in range to get a top QB without a trade.

Damn, you really can’t get off the wagons of the guys you thought were solid. Reich’s gone, he did a shitty job. Has Brown done better? Nope, but he’s not going to be here anymore either.

I haven’t read this whole thread but I really hope you didn’t post about how Fitterer never really got a shot either.

Until Tepper stops throwing his dumb ass into football operations, I have no hope for the future.

Of course not, but you’re still in here talking about Brown’s offense getting shut out twice to defend Reich.

I will say yesterday was the flukiest shutout I’ve ever seen. One TD wiped away because of a fumble inches away, a missed FG after a terrible taking of a sack and another TD wiped out because TMJ lined up wrong. Heck TMJ’s awful blocking attempt likely kept Chuba from another long TD. WTF he even played is beyond me.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Yeah he's the reason we weren't up by td's at that point lol, DC having to get creative just to get into field goal range and then immediately trusted his rookie kicker. to kick a 48 yarder in the wind rather then let Bryce try and complete a couple 5 yard play action passes to get in better position when Green Bay had their whole fuging team in the box to stop Dowdle lol. Twice in a row. If it was already under 40 I'd get just running to set up the hashes but jeez..

      Meow Mix podcast cancels plans to return after players tell them not to

      By Mage · Posted

      JMO, I think it is lame as hell to publicly give up on the team and then crawl back when they win a few games. Like, how can you run a PANTHERS PODCAST and then give up on it during the season? Yes, you can argue the Panthers prior to Week 3 hadn't done anything to deserve fanfare, but nobody made them run a Panthers Podcast.  They chose to.  So stick with it.  Instead they gave up and did so publicly.  Which is well within their right - but you can't then turn around and bring it back the same season.

      The crazy thing about football is it’s a team sport. But one position can make or break the game. And one of the best ways in doing that is by not giving the ball away and being able to run at 4-5 yard clips. Throw in a couple passes and next thing you know you’re in the red zone. Playing this way limits possessions to other(more dynamic) QBs too. And if your defense plays well that could equate to between 4 and six series. If you’re running that efficient, you can say, split the offensive production with the run or the pass. So by attempt byce accounted for his half of the yardage and Rico did too. Rico also managed to punch it in at the goal line. And you gotta give it to our oline and they’re running blocking and that’s without TMO! so the truth is, Canales and management figured out how to use Bryce’s strengths to compliment this run game to cover up his weaknesses in a way that is efficient. And our defense showed improvement against pretty formidable opponent the week after andy dalton gave it to buffalo. They are putting winning football on the field more often, and we are slowly becoming better each week. I hope they can keep it up.
