84 guys on the roster, only 7 remain just from '05, 11 from '06

Sounds about right. We have 8 guys on our roster who were in the league in 2005.

Even Detroit has more guys with experience than we do with 18 that were in the league in 2005. If they are in rebuilding mode and have more experience than we do, then what mode are we in?

Rebuilding...but with some good young players to start with.

Beason, D Will, Stew, Clausen, Otah, Gamble, Kalil.

And some aging but very capable players.

Smith, Gross, Wharton, Davis.

But make no bones about it, we are rebuilding, and preparing for the next head coach of the Panthers to be able to hit the ground running.

So is that a good thing or a bad thing? I don't understand the point of you posting this.

Do you wish that we still had Morgan on the team instead of Beason or Mitchell on the team instead of Kalil? Because in general turnover is a great thing when better players are coming in. Is there a risk involved with younger players coming in to replace vet? Of course but that doesn't mean you don't do it.

    • They oughta be more pissed about Coen lol bowles is old school with an aging defense and has lost two OCs  …. The fan base always wants the shiny toy.  
    • Please don't tell me you just averaged the QB ratings of all of Shough's starts to declare his QB rating as better 😂 I hope you don't actually believe that's how it works.  Otherwise please show your math on Shough's QB rating as a starter. Thanks for including Shough's 2.6 more Rushing YPG in this comparison, really doesn't feel at all like you're desperately grasping for as many straws as you can here. The truth is, it takes a statistical bottom-tier starting QB like Bryce Young to make Shough look simply OK by comparison.  And that bottom-tier starting QB still, by your own admission, puts up more points for his offense than Shough.  You're framing this as damning for Bryce, but in reality the fact that him and Bryce are so neck-and-neck is shining Shough in a very poor light. Yes Shough is a rookie and Young is a 3rd year starter, which is why I circle back to my position of Shough having a "pretty solid, encouraging rookie season" whereas you're fanboying over him.  Never mind that Shough is 2 years older than Bryce though.  Normally yes a QB's experience in the league is invaluable...but Bryce is kind of a unique situation considering the biggest complaint with him is he is too physically limited to succeed in the league.  Do we think a QB can overcome severe physical limitations simply with experience?  Also I remember wayyyy back (/s) when we cared so much about DJ Johnson being an older rookie and our standard for them being that they're more NFL-ready and able to contribute sooner rather than later.  But now all of a sudden Shough is just a poor little 26-year-old rookie on an awful team.  Seriously...the way you frame everything around Shough is straight out of a fanfic.  Constantly referencing with tears in your eyes how he's succeeding against all odds on such an awful team.  Meanwhile the Saints' D is 14th in PPG and their offense (led by Shough) is 29th in PPG.  Telling me how the Saints managed a win on Shough's shoulders against the Jets last week who put up...*checks notes*...6 points against the Saints' D.  Yes god bless the savior Shough who willed his team to victory against those juggernauts led by Brady Cook.  Never mind how Taysom Hill threw as many touchdowns in 1 passing attempt as Shough did in 49 passing attempts.  Yikes.
    • Who's gonna drop the gloves? I can't think of a single player on this team that can fight. Period. Much less get the best of an opposing player. Please.
