Agree with the poster above me. Besides, we only scored 16 points. Not gonna win many games scoring just 16 points

You will if the defense can hold the other team to less than 16 points.

I think it's completely fair to criticize the defense for this game. They've played admirably throughout the season, and they've certainly had little help from the offense, but that doesn't take away from the fact that they played horribly today.

The offense played just as bad or worse than the defense, so the article is bunk anyway. The offense still isn't nor hasn't all year held up their end of the bargain.

Fumble leads to a TB touchdown. Defense gets a turnover on the 50 and the offense can't do poo with it...

Sorry but no, it's not fair to criticize the defense because the offense has, and probably will continue to blow balls.

Today's loss WAS the D's fault. Yes the O was weak, but Tampa just wore the D out. I don't care how tired they are. They signed up to be an athlete. Today even Beason looked like a high schooler out there. I doubt Clausen could've pulled off the comeback, but after that Cadillac run it didn't matter.

The O signs up to score points, more points than the other team.

And if Beason and CO. look like high schoolers, the OLINE looks like YMCAers.

The Panthers offense still sucks and could only get fg's when they started with great field position. That being said the defense never gets off the field on 3rd down this season, last season, and it seems like forever. This has been a problem on this team for way to long. Hopefully this changes when the new coaching regime takes over.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
