Folks,

The writing is on the wall in Carolina. This off season has marked one of the biggest shake ups Panthers History.

This team still has some talent and some players who will compete.

BUT

From this point on, everything with this team is one big

?

...Some like it (the grass is always greener) Some dont (Doom and Gloom)

But at this point you have to expect 8-8 and hope for the best.

The thing that made made 2003 so special is that NO ONE expected it, we might see some excitement like that again in Carolina in 2010.

But one also has to think that we are headed for a repeat of 2001.

For the last several years we were only a few players away from a SB, now we are a lot farther from that.

Only time will tell.

One thing is certain, this is a Panther team that no one knows what to expect, and anyone who claims to is a blabbering IDIOT.

I think our needs are the same as they were a few weeks ago. Anyone thinking Lewis and Kemo make that big of a difference have to be out of their minds. It was Delhomme's time to go and although I didn't like letting Hoover go we didn't miss a beat with Sutton in there and Fiammetta should be ready to handle it. I think Diggs was 50/50 although he was diminishing, his skills we usually solid and he brought veteran stability. However Anderson and Conner are talented player and both are in their 2nd and 3rd years.

This is why we draft players folks. It's about time we give them a chance. When I look at Louis Leonard, Tank Tyler, Charles Johnson, E. Brown , Tony Fiammetta, Tyrell Sutton, Matt Moore, Dan Conner, and James Anderson.. I see talent not scrubs like you gloom and doomers think and apparently John Fox and Hurney think so to and they are closer to the players and know more football than any of us likely ever will. So can we stop bitching?

I know you guys all worry about leadership and everything but Matt Moore has sat behind Jake for 3 years now. Charles Johnson played side by side with Lewis for 3 years. TD and Beason are natural leaders and have picked up on Digg's veteran experience as I'm sure guys like Conner and Anderson have as well. It's time let these guys step in to those "leadership" roles.

I have to say I like the idea of making some moves this off season. How fast a year goes bye. Last year most people was thinking "great we have kept most of the team that made it to the Playoffs". Look at where that got the Panthers. I'm happy the over 30 crowd is getting replaced. I really like Hoover and wish he was able to stay, but at the same time it is not a bad idea to try to get better at each position. This board is way to fast at yelling the Panthers are going to fail.

Letting players go is not always a bad idea.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.

      Yeah, this is all projections of how it will turn out. Inevitability this list will look ridiculous in a full 2025 sesson hindsight, most likely. Still, I am pretty surprised that so many bristled at being thought of as having very, very lowly ranked WR and TE units. We literally have been for years. All you have to do is just have things stay the same and those are immediately bottom 5 units. It is easy to see why one would be reticent to have lofty expectations in the preseason. Gotta show it first when you are a perennial cellar dweller. That's just life at the bottom.

      That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
