This. If we had a promising young QB everyone would be frustrated about the abysmal D but the overall hope for the future would be completely different. Again, just like Cam's rookie year.

And since apparently some of the apologists have forgotten . . . this is EXACTLY what you SHOULD expect from a number one overall draft pick of a "franchise" QB.  You should look at the field and go "Yea, I see where this is going.  We're going to have a chance in every game."  Go watch Cam's first season again.

Cam was unique.

 

I don't think people realize just how dominant he was during his MVP season. That offense had no business being in the SB, but because we had Cam who was easily the best player in football that year he damn near went undefeated that year. 

 

We loss 2 games all season people. 

 

15-1 in the regular season is insane!

 

My biggest regret is us not seeing a healthy Cam and Luke finish out their careers the right way. We were robbed early of 2 generational players!

 

That doesn't get talked about enough on this board. We had arguably the best player on offense and defense. Cray Cray!

The one great season ended like that. I'll never forgive that play. 

 

Yes, that was one terrible play.  Yes, it's hard to look at it and think "What if . . . "?

However, that game turned much earlier.  It was the Cotchery catch where the game turned.  That one play and call completely and almost irreversibly changed the entire game.

Our D gave up 47 to a likely mediocre offense. Put prime Cam on this team and we're still bad. It's be like his rookie year where we put up enough points to compete but the D would consistently find a way to give up more.

We averaged 4 yards for the first 5 drives.   The D probably isn’t as bad as it seems.  Every D is going to give up points with literally no O for that many drives

Anyone that acts as if Super Bowl 50 came down to one singular play is just being a disingenuous fool. The entire team was in a funk. They lost focus. That includes Cam Newton. Our head coach being stubborn didn't help matters either. We lost that Super Bowl as a team from top to bottom. Although I will point out coincidentally Kony Ealy of all people seemed to be the most fired up about trying to change the course of that game late. That pretty damn well sums it up.

They're as bad as they seem. The Falcons would've had less opportunities if the Panthers offense could've maintained drives but they would've still scored like clockwork when they got the ball.

Well, being down 17 sounds better than 30 at the half.

If he just jumps on the ball we probably won that SB. Fools gonna fool I guess

I also blame Kasey for the first lost SB. Probably being foolish there too.

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      By TD alt · Posted

      I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo.

      Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
