“We look better”

I mean sure, it’s reassuring this team isn’t total ass and isn’t getting blown out every game.

But now we’ve gotten back the “find EVERY possible excruciating way to lose” team and that’s also not a fun team to root for either. Are we ever going to see a winning team again? I genuinely believe the team is cursed. We’ve all seen it so many times that I don’t think it’s just crazy nonsense anymore. Even when this team is “good” they have found ways to rip your heart out. I guess that’s just what being a sports fan is all about but the Panthers are uniquely adept at losing when they’ve exhausted all possible ways to win.

We do look better. This is good. Bryce might actually be our long term answer, defense looked really good today even without the best player on the team, we have plenty of weapons for Bryce and they’re only going to get better (and healthy). Losing sucks, but looking like this when we lose sucks a LOT less than the Rhule years or Bryce’s first 18 games.

Truth is this was the best outcome. Bryce was money in the 2 min drill and was clutch all day. And losing like this doesn't hurt our draft position. We weren't going anywhere. And it exposes Everos prevent zone which has resulted in us giving up more points in the last 2 minutes of a game than any other team. 

This. Not enough attention has been placed on our defensive coordinator. Yeah, we’ve had injuries..but let’s not anoint him as a defensive of genuis. Tens played well today overall. Result sucks. But BY looking like a franchise QB and maintaining a draft position is positive. The improvement is there. Team is growing. It was an entertaining game.

We're seeing growth. Considering what weeks 1 and 2 looked like we've made huge strides.

Still need some pieces and time for our young players to develop, but I'm more optimistic than I've been in a long time about this team.

They’ve just returned to the level they were under Matt Rhule early on and Steve Wilks briefly. Not the worst team in the NFL but still a miserable garbage team. If they can ascend past this point I will be pleasantly surprised.

    • I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy. 
    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
