I know you're hating it. I don't know if the Lions can do it on the road though. Ravens or Bills should be able to beat SF though. KC, no chance.

We'll see. I'm all about anything different and seeing new teams in the big game. Anyone but SF or KC.

This was his first full season as the starter. You're nuts!

Careers are short in the pro game. You don't get past 5 seasons as a starter playing like that in the clutch moments of a game. Reality. Not many chances in the NFL. Can never have your QB do that if you want to win a championship. That's why Purdy is the QB & not Jimmy G or Sam Darnold.

Man. GB lost that game more than the 49ers won it. I'm not sure it matters though. I know any team can win a game, but once Baltimore knocked the rust off today they looked unbeatable. 

 

They already smoked most of these teams once.

Look, I'm a Lamar guy, but they did not look unbeatable. I picked them to win it all back in October, mind you, but if Lamar's telegraphed throw in the end zone is picked, like it should've been, the game is close, and possibly in doubt.

Idk. I just hate that franchise ever since we had to job to them in the 2013 playoffs. Can’t let it go lol

Hopefully you'll get there. That was a looooong time ago. You're better than FrankW though lol. We haven't been in the NFC West since what ... 2001? 😉

Exactly. Even if you can get past the rivalry we had with them through the Cam years. How can anyone hold their nose long enough to find themselves happy amongst one of the most blatantly full of bandwagoners fanbase in the entire league? They're neck and neck with the Cowboys and Steelers for worst of the worst. Some Panthers fans here have no self respect.

I think they couldve ran the ball 2 times with Aaron Jones and got enough for a field goal lol. Horrible throw yet again. Id be beside myself if i was a packers fan

That throw with two timeouts in your back pocket is just brutal. Hell, even if you had no timeouts. There was like 50 seconds on the clock. Just chuck that thing into the third row and go to the next down. He was in panic mode but with the time on the clock and two timeouts in the back pocket only needing a FG for OT there was no reason to be in panic mode.

True, he could implode. They just seem like a very complete team. They already dog walked the 49ers and I'd trust Lamar (or any of the AFC QBs left) over Purdy. I thought Purdy was pretty bad today and the 49ers always seem to get their QB exposed (or hurt) in the NFCCG or SB recently.

Why do y'all care who wins these games? Just let it go and just watch for the love of the game. Trust me, it makes for a lot more entertainment and a lot less stress. This season has made me remember the joys of just being a general NFL fan. Yeah, you don't get the super high highs of being a fan of a team doing well but we're Panthers fans here. Do we actually have any realistic hope of that in the near future? Just watch for the entertaining the game and let the results go.

That being said, I think they over achieved for it being Jordan Love's first season starting. If they had actually won this game (easily could have imo if their kicker doesnt miss that field goal and they get a field goal on that last drive to win) and gotten the NFC CG, that wouldve have been bonkers for such a young team and a QB starting his first year.

    • They addressed D in free agency in a big way (Edge, ILB) and they signed a starting OT and a player they think could be a swing OT in reserve.  They have claimed to be adding "Weapons" to the offense.  I think that will be their focus.  I agree 100% that we need a T, but a reserve, developmental OT in a weak (at the top) draft does little to address that weakness in 2026.  If they are telling the truth, a reserve developmental OT is not a weapon.  The will draft a WR if that statement and their actions in free agency are accurate.  That does not mean we ignore OT--I just dont see where he takes a T if he is filling holes. As a coach, I am concerned about OT, but when I look at the roster, I see bigger immediate problems. S: We are OK if you want Scott for another season. Not ideal.  There is also talk of Smith-Wade being moved to S.  If so, we need a CBN. DT: Who took Robinson's job?  He played a lot.  All DTs (NT-DE) were average to below average, including 280 lb wharton.  We need a DT (my preference for the first pick, to be honest)  I am guessing a DT will be our third rounder? ILB:  Unless we want Wallace out there in coverage, we need a compliment to Lloyd.  I think Lloyd's starting mate is the second rounder. (speculating)  This pick is likely to occur in the second round because it is for a starting position. WR:  Some are fine with what we have.  sIn 2025, Coker had 3  TDs on 394 yards.  Legette had 3 TDs and 363 yards--and only 1 drop.  I love Coker, but neither should make us feel secure about WR with those numbers.  A lot depends on both stepping up in 2026, but Canales has been screaming weapons.  Could he mean Tight end?  That depends on how good they feel about Coker and XL. Center:  You can get a player ready to start relatively early in the middle rounds.  Very similar to the OT situation but I think C may be more of a priority right now than OT.   Tight End:  They seem to like Delp from Georgia who projects round 4. CB:  There was some talk of moving Smith-Wade to S (to learn for a season with Scott, maybe?) and that might require adding CB depth inside. Tackle?:  I agree that we need one, but this draft is simply not strong at the top at T.  The ONLY way to get a quality OT that is still developmental is to take one in round 1.  Canales has all but said we are not doing that.  But after the first 40 picks or so, they pretty much level out for a good while.  The fifth rounders and the third rounders are about the same.  For that Reason, I am guessing (It is all guesses) that they
