Tom Talks: Panthers sick of losing -- to themselves


Laetitia

Defensive end Everette Brown said after the game that Carolina has one team it can't continue to lose to -- itself. Now that I read the quote, it doesn't seem particularly deep or meaningful. But it did when he said it. So I'm using it. Thanks, Everette

The Panthers are so young that there is a temptation to call them the Young Panthers. But age doesn't matter. You win or you don't. That's what matters. They will be good. But not yet.

Tom, I believe we need to sit down and have a discussion on the concept of "experience" here.

There is plenty of blame to go around. The bottom line is we look like Detroit or St Louis right now. That is what happens when you replace nine starters and have so few veterans on the team. Anyone who didn't know this is what would happen was simply being naive.

Now that the path has been chosen, there is nothing else to do but hang in there and see what happens. I would hate to see what will happen if we actually had a tough schedule.

Hey Tom, Panther fans are sick of paying an increase in ticket prices as the quality of the product they paid to see decreases.

Write an article about that. The more this team loses, the less the fans are going to give a poo about what the players think.

    • Why don't we just say they can shove the late round draft picks up their ass? If they want a player they will be starting at WR in Week 1, I want a MLB in return that we can start Week 1. Starter for a Starter Not Starter for a draft pick we'll be debating whether or not they should make the final 53 man roster in 2026.
    • Why?   No. This isn't a situation of a player we want to trade because we have no use for them.  He's our starting slot WR, our leader of the young WR room, Bryce's safety option the last 2 years who he has good chemistry with. If the Vikings didn't run into WR trouble, we'd never have been even considering trading him, so why in the world should we give him up for fair market value in a vacuum for Thielen and disregard what losing him off our roster will do for us this year? A 5th round pick in 2026 is a negligible draft pick, especially with this season being so make or break for Bryce and Canales.
    • The Vikings acquiring all these late round picks has me feeling like we're about to see another CMC situation play out here. Trade a player we really like for the equivalent of what we want for them on the draft pick chart, but because of a bunch of late round picks instead of the one pick value we actually want. Which will do the same thing in the end, nothing, because 6th and 7th round picks rarely work out to begin with, or we're just going to use them to move up 10 picks in the 3rd or 4th round to take another DJ Johnson
