Least excitment before any season?

Ever since Tepper bought the team we have been hyped as "play-off bound" by somebody, Starting with RR/MH [95%MH], then MR/MH, then MR/SF, then the super-max hype from FR/SF. Tepper is guilty of falling for it along with a lot of Huddlers [even those that will never admit it] We are hardly the first team to have both a bad HC & GM. When we get to 10-20 years of such then we'll fit in with the worst. As far as next season goes: I am looking for improved play pointing to long term success. If Bryce proves what I think wrong & turns into a NFL QB great. But right now I'm looking at the other players proving themselves for 2025 & 2026 & beyond.

Agreed. It's about trying to salvage what we can of the last 3 or so drafts. If we can scrape more than two or three solid starters out of that bunch, it's a fuging start. And we gotta start somewhere.

I’ve never cared less about this team.  These last 7 years along with SB50 just took something from me that I’m not sure I’ll ever get back.

Yeah I feel this way as well. Maybe it comes with age. I was in my 20's back then. For some reason my passion for the Panthers is not the same.

 

Losing a lot of games and having the worst owner in the NFL doesn't help either.

I remember looking at him after they drafted him and thinking ... maybe (if I squinted I could almost see it). Then he got hurt, after looking like dogshit his first time(s) out as I remember it. That doesn’t help you.

I’m very excited about this season. I think this coaching staff is the real deal and that Bryce is gonna shine in this system. 
 

I also think Tepper is learning to back off.

I am excited because I think Canales will get his guy in 2025.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
