What is the identity of this team?

Under Jerry RIchardson, the identity was always clear (with the exception of George Seifert). Defense first, run the ball. 

Under David Tepper, I haven't been able to figure out who this team is trying to be. At any point. What is the identity? Are they an offensive team because of an offensive head coach now? Are they a running team or a passing team? Have they made any indication about who they are even trying to be? Dan Morgan said something about "needing more dogs" or something like that but they have no identity. 

To quote Andrew Carnegie, "As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say, I just watch what they do." 

What do the Panthers do? Lose football games. So I guess that's the identity.

Under Tepper there isn't one. Plain and simple.

But we still talk and invest like we're a pound the rock team. Chuba Hubbard is certainly a talented back for us and we paid him as such. Unfortunately he can't do it himself. And he definitely can't do it if we find ourselves in an early hole and have to dig our way out.

Clearly the Cowboys have been watching film of our offense in recent weeks and summarily took away everything that Bryce Young had success with. One step forward two steps back on repeat is all I see.

But at the end of the day when the game is on the line your first overall pick is who you turn to. What round was Mr. Three Touchdowns Cooper Rush drafted in again? Oh he wasn't? Interesting.

      If they lose the last three......

      By frankw · Posted

      I presented that scenario because this is a home game and we seemed to have improved in some capacity in that area as of recently. The problem with the possibility of sweeping the Bucs is this team has had a habit of quickly falling victim to momentum shifts. The Bucs are coming off a bitter loss the same as the Panthers but the Bucs have a much better proven track record this time of year and they have performed when the pressure is on unlike our Panthers. We have a shot against the Seahawks here in BOA but that is a matchup that could quickly get out of hand because they are a well coached team and that goes back to the momentum shifts I mentioned. I just don't see this team beating the Bucs in their stadium to close the season. Tall order to say the least.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      I’d give it another year for Sanders and Evans, I don’t much care what you do with Tremble’s spot. Let him have another year or maybe replace him. Haven’t looked at his contract so that may be the determining factor.

      Following the crazy up down pattern we finish 9-8 with an improbable sweep of TB, and lay an egg in the home playoff game.  I don’t know if I can sign on to sweeping TB but I suppose it’s possible, they aren’t really that good this year.    ps I can buy beating TB Sunday and losing to Seattle.  Then it just gets to can you fluke one game. Any given Sunday. So we’ll see.
