We never had back to back winning seasons in days of yesteryear but damn Panthers football was at least really fun to watch from time to time.

We were a team you had to respect, winning or losing. Also, our lows during a lot of those times were often 7-9 seasons versus these 2-5 win seasons that so routinely happen now.

Tepper so thoroughly dismantled every aspect of Panthers culture, it is no wonder that we remain a laughingstock.

When I think of why Gruden hates Carolina it goes back to the 2003 season, Bucs were defending SB champs and the young Panthers block a PAT attempt and beat them in OT to best them in Week 1 and beat them again later that year.  It signaled the end of Bucs dominance in the division. Even though Panthers were up and down every year, the 2008 double trouble game was just the culmination of dominating the Bucs (9-3 vs Bucs from 2003-2008) and ending Gruden’s tenure as their head coach. He never recovered.

It's impossible to overlook Richardsons sins but I remember when all we needed to do to improve for many was a new owner and GM.

What sins? Dude got cancelled for commenting on women’s jeans

Yep, because of strong o-line and D-line play that always meant our bottom was 7-9. We just need a center and were good on O-line. D-line is next up.

    • Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though. 
    • 13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • Because this DL is completely reliant on Brown being available and being a stud. Without him we were the worst D in history. The Wharton signing last year reeked of desperation. He just isn't a great fit for us schematically and I think we panicked a little bit when we missed out on Milton Williams who would have been a great fit.
