I sense this season like the past couple is gonna be focused on getting better and establishing an identity. Saying that:

looked good - Dillion Johnson, Trevon Wallace, Jordan Matthews, JT sanders, Coker (potential there) 

need to be cut: all the backup DL, Plummer, ISM.

Dillon Johnson showed a combination of speed, power and explosiveness we haven't seen at the RB spot since Stew. 

Never went down on first contact, decisive in his cuts and turned several 2 yard losses into 3-5 yard games. 

More importantly, he wanted to be out there. Looked like he actually gave a poo and wasn't just going through the motions during garbage time of the 4th quarter.

I would not think twice at putting him on the 53 especially if Brooks starts the season on IR.

I did not watch last night's game but from the sound of it I am frightened we will have another season where it's not even watchable play in person or on TV and that sure is disappointing. Still though I'm going to hope (yet be a realist) that when the starters come out, it will look like a complete different team. I think we are in for another rough season but not judging any players or coaches just yet till I see the regular season.

I can’t remember a game as boring and uninteresting as the one tonight. Oh yeah, last week’s game. 
 

I’m honestly worried about how detached I am from this franchise, what the fug.  On a bigger scale, it’s impacting my excitement for NFL football overall. First time I’ve been like this going back to day one, 1995. 

I want to tell you, I’m looking for what you said that deserves someone shitting your post. 

I think maybe you committed a Bryce Young thought crime.

It's so funny how most of the people claiming they didn't watch it or only watched a small part are commenting the most about how they feel about the game.   I thought it was fairly positive.  Much better than the first game.  No big offensive explosion but what do you expect with Plummer who looked bad in college and some oline players who signed to the team in the past couple days.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
