So the pendulum has swung back to this side in a matter of weeks... alrighty.

I don’t know if you’ve been told this is a week to week league. Only a real deal hater doesn’t take new information given to them and include into the equation. 

Over the last three weeks we’ve been first (1st) in Sack rate at 12.4% and an alarming 4.3 sacks a game. That’s vs 3 division leaders who are fighting for their playoff spot and two out of three have elite offenses. Ranking them around 3 and 6 offensively we’ve been doing this vs really really good teams but I won’t mention it when 

But maybe we should ignore as well because it would start to swing the pendulum and we don’t want to speak positives about this team they’re the exact same team from week one and two. lol yall kill me with ignorance when sht changes we change our view points it’s not biophysics it’s NFL football.

Opinions are changing so fast around here I’m getting whiplash. 

Naw it’s normal in the NFL to judge your team on where they are currently. You struggle for three weeks then win 4 in a row are you a hot team or you still judge as the team who lost 3 in a row? Are they considered a team who now on the right path or should your opinion stay the same just trying to understand you guys logic?

Duh. My point was that the pitchforks weeks ago were ridiculous, which is why the pendulum has to swing so far in the first place. No poo that things change over time.

So stats matter when we talk offense and how Young is not that great but the defense is great even though the stats are terrible.

We are 31st in yards surrendered at 384 yards  and 32 in touchdowns allowed at 44. We have given up the most points in the NFL in the last 2 minutes of a half meaning we aren't clutch.

. We are 12th in passing defense and 32nd in rush defense. We are 32nd in points allowed at almost 30 points a game. We are 26th in red zone defense.

I can't see anything that suggests our defense is anything but bottom five if you actually look at the numbers.

Yes we have had our share of injuries and that matters but let's be real.  Evero's zone defense needs pressure on the qb to work and until the last few weeks it was nonexistent. And that soft prevent defense he uses on third down and in the 2 minute defense is a joke. Truth is I would be fine moving on from Evero and finding something with a more aggressive scheme.

    • Just because all draft picks are a gamble doesn't mean you don't have a better chance at hitting on a better player the higher you're drafting. It would literally be like someone saying, I'll give you 1 or 2 free spins on a slot machine, and you say you'll take the 1 because you're not likely to win anything anyways with 1 or 2, so why bother? The Cowboys desperately wanted T-Mac, but because they were 4 picks behind us, they weren't able to get him.  If you told Cowboys fans that had they lost 2 more games last year in a lost season, that it would get them the player they wanted so badly, would they in retrospect go back and lose those games to get their guy? 95% of them would take that trade off in a heartbeat, and the others who wouldn't are the fans who would rather enjoy an extra win or two in a poo season to then set themselves up to be better for the next decade. I also think the fans who argue against this thinking, get too caught up in the "well that means you're going to be rooting against us late in the season even if we still have a shot at the playoffs." Which isn't true, it's saying if you're telling me right now we'd make the playoffs but lose in the first round, that I'd rather end up 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss the playoffs because in our opinion, the benefits that come along with that outweigh the benefit of the players getting 1 game of playoff experience.
    • In relation to tanking. I think you can count on one hand the number of people here who actually want us to lose football games. When accounting for it across the fanbase it amounts to maybe 2% of the entire Panthers fanbase. But you engage with some internet trolls and think haters are coming out of the woodwork and hey look at that it's all a conspiracy that leads to Bryce Young haters. Do you hear yourself sir? If it sounds ridiculous that's because it is. I mean at this point do you see Bryce haters in your dreams? As far as the culture of this franchise goes we seem to be doing better in that department via what we are building right now and with the people we have in place. But we also shouldn't just make assumptions just yet either. The rubber still needs to meet the road. And going back to previous seasons I think we can acknowledge although tanking obviously isn't a thing there were some times where we thought our culture was improving but really it wasn't. Yes I'm looking directly at some of those wins under Wilks. If the culture had truly changed we would not have lost to the Steelers who have been mediocre for years at home the way we did and they were starting Mitch Trubisky ffs. We did not change our culture for the better and we won games that ultimately meant nothing. It was just a brief mirage. We've done this for years now. The harsh truth of the matter is the Panthers have not had a winning season or been to the playoffs in going on 8 years but in those years they've been trying to convince themselves they aren't poo but in the process all they've done throughout most of that time period is squander better draft position and we were still the worst team in the league for our troubles. At the end of the day we should be able to just be adults and reconcile with that. And no that isn't being "pro tank" or any other boogeyman term it's simply recognizing reality.
    • He's an asset in a game manager role. But as soon as you have to ask him to go out there and try to make plays and not just take what the defense is giving him... well, Darnolding happens.
