This is what ive noticed the most.  Even earlier in the game when the score was closer chubba would consistently run for 5-10 yards a carry and Canales would immediately start passing the ball. Bizzare play calling considering Chubba has been the only productive offensive player we've had thus far

I'm listening to the game because of work. Is Diontae Johson playing? He hasn't done much this game for some reason 

This is so baffling to me. They were beating these dudes up running the ball. Right up the gut. Chuba goes the distance…. They haven’t found a way to slow him down yet. He could easily be at 75 yards already. And then they go full on air mail? 

Did Tepper insert some plays he wanted run? This is so opposite to the last 2 weeks. Something is very different.

It’s the Fitterer bowl. It’s basically the Panthers (team he built) versus the Bears (where he sent our trash). It’s funny that we would would take each individual piece of that trade over Young now:

2023 pick 9, 2023 2nd rounder, 2024 pick 1, DJ Moore and 2025 pick 33.

Somehow we traded it all. SMH.

Remember Fitt's motto? In on every deal!! He was in a lot of deals but there isn't a single deal that he got right. What a buffoon he was, he set this franchise back decades.

Ejiro Evero talks about Panthers’ familiar free-agent signings (usatoday.com)

Quote

 

Defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, who was retained through the transition into new head coach Dave Canales, spoke with reporters on Thursday afternoon. He was asked about a few of the front office’s free-agent signings, particularly the ones he has a history with.

“The first part is that those guys are all very, very good football players,” Evero said. “They’re smart, they’re tough, they’re instinctive, they play hard, they’re great teammates. So from that standpoint, they uplift their team.”

Evero will be reunited with linebacker Josey Jewell, whom he coached as the Denver Broncos defensive coordinator in 2022, as well as defensive lineman A’Shawn Robinson and safeties Jordan Fuller and Nick Scott—his guys over from the Los Angeles Rams days. They’ll all look to add to the defense that allowed the fourth-fewest total yards in 2023.

They gave him a miniscule budget and told him to make it work - so he picked up players from the absolute bottom of the bargain bin that had played for him before. 

You don't think he actually wants his starting LBs to be Thompson and Jewell, right? I can't even name the starting DL, they're that poor. 

Lets not forget that we passed over Ryan Poles, their GM in favor of Scott Fitterer because Fitt was able to joke back and forth with Rhule and Tep. And he Fleeced us on the trade that now has us devoid of talent. FUGGG Lol

You cant make this crap up

Yeah.  He got guys he wanted within the structure and budget we were operating under.   

we went into the season knowing we had zero pass rush and were questionable across the board.  Evero being able to have influence of which items in the discount bin he preferred….isn’t roster control.

Dan Morgan went into the season with this roster.  The plan was to get the O out of the gutter.  If they did that….the D was always setup to be the fall guy. 

This is a historically bad defense. If you don't think the man in charge of it deserves some blame then I don't know what to tell you.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
