2024 Panthers defense

Evero to his red shirt army defense: I know most of you won't be able to do your job well or without going to IR and be replaced by another red shirt, but remember that your sacrifice will not be in vain, that you're here to save the most important thing.

My job.

For the 1st time in 7 years we look like a stable and competent organization that has a plan in place.  After all the chaos and instability over the last several years to finally see some stability and sense of normalcy around the team is a massive improvement. Hopefully now we can start to build this organization back up and get back to competing at a high level and no longer be the laughingstock of the NFL. 

 

LADIES AND GENTELMEN WE ARE SO BACK!!!!!

I'm still not buying that.  The whole fool me once thing.  Really the whole sales job of us now being a stable and competent is basically half of a season.   

and do we really have a plan? Sure seems like they had a plan this year.  And Bryce forced them to go to a plan B for the near future when he got a chance.

The plan this year was to find out if Bryce was our guy, establish a culture, and build the identity of this team. I'd say we accomplished our goal. Now of course Bryce didn't start off the season as we hoped but I respect the leadership of this team to not panic and to stay the course.

I would say some think we have accomplished this, but in reality we only partly accomplished this. We don’t know for a fact bryce is our guy, we just know he is the guy going into 2025. The culture hasn’t been built, but maybe the foundation of it has been. They still need to learn to win consistently. 
 

Honestly i think how the season ended has set us up to accomplish all that in 2025 though. But this is just my opinion.

I think we found our QB, and he was on the roster.

We found a starting Center

I think we found a starting LB (Wallace) and we may have found a starting CB (Jackson) and I think a possible depth or nickel CB (Bartholomew).

An undrafted Rookie because a key part of our offense (Coker).

We seem to have gotten good play from our 2024 draft's third and fourth round picks. 

Our biggest weaknesses:

DL  (I think DT/nose is a huge weakness that can really make us better if addressed properly)

DB  (We have 1 safety returning; need to re-sign Jackson and add some CB help)

WR  (We could use an alpha)

Edge (A rookie to play with Clowney and Wonnum for a season)

LB  (Jewell and Wallace were below average--but playing behind a below average DL--I think we need an ILB)

TE--A stud would improve this offense.  Give Sanders time, but we could use 2

Call me crazy but I think they can get by with Tremble and Sanders as long as they stay healthy, assuming they resign Tremble. They need another for injury insurance for sure but I see it as 90% set for now. You are spot on with the rest.

If we attack the Defense the way we attacked the Offense last off season, we could be competitive next year. I would love a #1 wr, but I'm fine trotting out the same Offense. If we get a brand new Defense. If we had a middle of the pack D we win 3-4 more games easily.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
