Why are we 0-4 ?

[Makish]

Because the FO never tried to develop a future QB in 8 years so now we are paying for it (I BLAME JAKE FOR THIS ONE)

[rico6]

Lame duck owner, Lame duck Front Office, Lameduck Staff, Lame-fuging-duck everything.

[Jackofalltrades]

Wait, so the QB is to blame for what the FO failed to do?

WTF?

[Jangler]

Start Weinke!

You missed one. Lame duck CBA :-p

[Jbro]

Because they have been outscored.

[rico6]

Dat Damn CBA!

I'm with JOAT. How the hell is it Jake's fault that the front office believed he was the guy for longer than they probably should have?

Panthers are 0-4 simply because it's a really bad group of players. Sure the Panthers have a handful of pro bowl capable guys, but the lack of talent at QB, WR, DL is just embarrassingly bad. The other problem is the oline regressed and if you lose the battle on both sides of the trenches you're not going to win many football games.

Fox and Hurney have been handicapped by a greedy owner who clearly no longer sees winning as profitable.

Were you watching the games?

We're 0-4 because we're not a very good team.

Some great logic there, huh?

[ladypanther]

Because, JR let Foxy make too many decisions. (JR tried to let his people work, without his interference......andd, he was likely sick for quite some time before his surgery.) Back in the saddle, JR is now having to clean up Foxy's mess. This young team will only get better, espcially with new coaches.

1) DL - Let opposing backs get to the second level and lack of a pas rush.

2) CB - Can't cover or tackle. Actually NO stopped themselves, when their TE and WR's were dropping passes. Never seen so many open guys in a game.

3) OL - Gross has just been bad and I noticed we starting rolling Clausen out the right side away from pressure, Bernadeau has been awful as well, allowing DT to run free up the middle. Even on Williams best runs, he's having to cut back because the OL is not making holes.

4) Stewart is running scared and not the same back from last year and IMO, the dwfense knows it, taking Williams out of the game has ended some good drives we had going.

5) Play Calling - The game managing was horrid before halftime and to end the game. The screen play works against a blitzing team, but we rarely use it. Once D'LO was tackled for a loss at the end of the game, everyone knew pressure was coming on second and 14, however we continue to run these long downfield routes that seem to take forever. I mean you are in 4 down situation, try picking up some positive yards on 3rd down to get those 4 yds back for a FG or a managable 4th down call. Clausen had no chance on that 3rd down play.

6) Blitzing - We have one of the best and quickest LB's in the league, why are we not sending them to apply pressure? At one point I showed my son a replay, where all 4 of our DT were spinning around like "ballerinas" and the Saints OL were just like watching them. You give any QB, that much time, especially Brees and he will kill you.

7) We are going to have to sign a veteran receiver, not a high priced vet, but someone who can work with Clausen and our rookie WR's and be a positive influence and mentor.

At this point it's all about development, It may be time to let go of Marshall, Jarrett and Bernadeau to name a few and promote some PS players.

It seems like we just let one of those go. Oh well, we've still got Dwayne Jarrett!
