With the emergence of BY, what looked like 5 years looks like two years to me

 

healthy, good drafting and FA this team should be knocking on the door next year

then 2026 season the Panthers should realistically return to the playoffs with the Saints, Falcons, Tampa aging out

The division sucks. It's sucked for the better part of a decade. This team makes the playoffs next year.l

Agreed. Without pineros shanks and a better d were in the hunt this year. I don't see the bugs, saints or falcons getting better. 

I'm still hopeful x and brooks will be solid contributors but Bryce is slowly turning into the cornerstone we need. 

We have a ton of picks and still need a sticky handed speedster but the foundation is already there. 

And we get brown back next year and maybe shaq

We are a few plays away from being 6-7 and in the hunt this year but just don’t have enough talent to finish these close games. 
 

Next year we will legitimately compete for division but that depends on injuries, our offseason draft and FA activities.

Talk to me after next season. There is still a boat load a crap to fix on this team. I'm encouraged by the way this rag tag group is still fighting even though they are outmatched in every game. They are no longer an easy W going forward and it's getting noticed around the league.

I was just thinking about this. 

Add Tee Higgins, extend Horn, get Brown back, and work on pass rush and o line depth and this is an 8+ win team next season in contention for the division. 

This is the best secondary I can remember us having in a decade. Think about that. Opposing QB are double and triple clutching balls because dudes are locked down, but our rush doesn’t get consistent heat, and they can only cover for so long. Horn has to be retained. His skill set is perhaps the most difficult to hit on outside of a QB. He is the glue back there.

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
