They will have to score forty points a game.....

[Jmac]

The defense is totally decimated now with Shaq out for the year and Josey with hamstring issue.

Even the Red Rifle can't put up enough points to help this defense. If they win three more games this season it will be amazing.

A top five pick is almost a given at this point. Hopefully they can sign Dalton for at least another year and stack the defense in the draft and FA signings. Maybe go all D.

Hate to have to pass on Cam Wade if he is available. Definitely have to get a decent QB from somewhere.

To many balls to juggle at one time. This is the worst defense they have ever put on the field.

LOL now is the time to suit up Peppers, Morgan, Luke, Rucker, and TD.  Seriously - this defense is worse today than at the start of the season:  No Brown, Thompson, Jewell, Fuller.....two of these guys are not coming back this year.

Honestly reminds me of 2011 Panthers. I think we forget how bad that defense played overall even with some players.

Sione Fua woof

Please don’t panthers this one up. No stopgap washed up has been. Just roll with what we’ve got. Keep our draft capital. 

[Wolfcop]

Travis Hunter, please.

I knew the defense was going to struggle to play consistent.  Injuries have decimated the defense to the point, I'm notnsure I'll be able to enjoy watching the games.

Numba one pick....should be Dee...2nd pick should be Dee....3rd pick should be Dee...4th pick should be Dee

It's beyond repair this year. The blew their wad giving Young no excuses and they are going to have to coach up someone. The DC brought in Jewell at 7 a year. Robinson at a little less. Jackson is solid at about the same price which is good IMO. Fuller at 5. They actually chose these guys and spent more than I thought on them. That's a GM and DC issue IMO.

As long as the offense is scoring I'm fine. Everyone gets to prove themselves this year or get gone. Winning would be nice but looking competitive is so much fun still that I'm not sweating it yet.

I remember watching us play the Cowboys in '09 I think. Watched Nick Hayden get blown off the LOS on runs and pattycaked on passes and being so damned frustrated that we had that for a DT.

It's why when Gettleman drafted the two DTs 1 and 2 I fell in love with him. Which didn't last a long time but it was nice then.

I think you spelled sixty points wrong...

[Daeavorn]

At least we have a watchable offense this year? Dalton almost put up 30 points on the Bengals.

lol I completely forgot about Nick Hayden. My name is Nick too and historically Nicks on the Panthers have not done well:

Nick Hayden, Nick Scott, Nick Thurman. (some might put Nick Goings). 

Score 40-60ppg? I believe in Andy.
