I mean, I agree that the D has looked better than expected and I hope that the performance carries over, but you can't blame any writer for refusing to put stock in the preseason. Chris Johnson had 10 yards on 8 carries - does that mean he's going to average fewer than 1 yard per carry in the regular season? Bottom line is our team is "unproven" until the season starts and it can be proven otherwise.

No, but you can blame him for assuming that the Panthers defense is gonna suck just because Peppers is gone. There hasn't been one sred of evidence to back up that notion, so far.

What I got from this "article" is that this guy knows absolutely nothing about the Panthers, aside from the well known players who are not here anymore.

I don't think the scamp mentioned any of this. He just looked at who was gone and what was acquired.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
