Fanfest...preseason...the offense has been pitiful since the start. I can't believe we are so surprised at how bad the offense is, I've never seen them as bad as they were this year at fanfest. I can't exactly put my finger on why but we definitely should have seen this coming. Hopefully jimmy can spark the offense.

Very true sir, it has looked like poo all along. We have to work in some more shorter quick slant/quick out passes. We run too many intermediate and deep routes which causes the quarterback to be under serious pressure by the time our receivers break on every pass play. With our sub-par O-line play we should run the majority of our pass plays spread out with those quick passes and work in the deep ones here and there.

I think most (myself included), saw it was a continuation of last season. We were so dominant the last few weeks on offense with Matt that we thought it would continue when we got Smitty back.

We were dominate because we played the Bucks and one of the worst D's the league has ever seen (by the end of the season)...Most were blinded by the wins instead of seeing why we got the wins!

I will give it to Matt we beat Minn and that was a good win; that said, every dog has their day!

There can always be excuses or reasons why we won or lost, but at the end of the day we won cause we were the better team on the field that day.

Then again some of us said that the real problem is that this team is no where close to the team at the end of last year. With all the new faces and lack of veteran leadership this team has to forge their own identity and develop their own chemistry. So far that hasn't happen. Now we will see whether we get it together or fall apart. Whether we still have enough leadership to dig ourself out of the hole or not.

Not even close. That team had great chemistry, got on a roll and both the defense and offense played with great intensity and passion. This year's team isn't close to that one with the loss of so many veterans. This team plays with no passion or with no urgency. This team has to develop the fire and passion that we had last year. Otherwise we won't win 5 games this year.

      XL makes a list of sophomore breakout candidates

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score.     https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By CRA · Posted

      my understanding is a big time throw, could be a 5-10 yard slant to Adam Thielen given AT isn't going to separate.

      It's a subjective stat that PFF made up. https://www.pff.com/news/pro-pff-qb-grading-most-effective-tool-there-is
