We kept it within 7 in the 4th quarter. It may have just been me, but I felt as if we had a (albeit faint) glimmer of hope. Up until the 2 defensive TD's by the Ravens (thanks St. Pierre). It shows how the defense has been playing to keep the game within reach. Ultimately we were outmatched, but it means something to me that the defense was able to hold the Ravens for that long.

Yeah, I'm searching long and hard for positives. Outside of Goodson, that was about it.

I don't think he had the option... I think they were limiting his field to half... remember it's a guy who had only a few snaps in the NFL and only a week on the team... with all that against him, he did okay up till the end of the fourth quarter... he should have never been in then position.. but I think atleast it might open some jobs for him.

I missed the Gettis and Smitty being wide open. But what I did see was 2 perfectly thrown balls to Ravens defenders that was taken back for 6

Kind of represents our season. As soon as we get a glimmer of hope, something comes, swoops in, takes that hope back to the house for 6, and spikes it to make us feel worse

What koolaid is everyone drinking? Yeah, those ints were terrible. I saw an outstanding Raven defense playing. Who'd a thunk there'd be anything like that from the Ravens? But IMO our defense failed to hold them early and we paid the price late. Last Sunday vs Bucs our D was exposed and the Ravens just took advantage of what they saw on tape. Most of the afternoon the Raven WR's were wide open. Rice could run where ever he wanted to. How about walking into the end zone.

This was a player loss. Not coaches, not JR, not refs, players failed to execute. Period. This to me was the worst loss of the season. Ravens attacked every one of our weaknesses systematically. We are not better than we were in game 1.

That is what concerned me the most. It isn't difficult to point out our weaknesses. What remains to be seen is how the coaching staff tries to mask those weaknesses (o-line, offense, QB, etc...). Knowing Fox, we will end up finding ways to expose those areas even more. I don't have a good feeling about the Cleveland game, seeing all of this.

      Game Observations

      Unless the league decides to rollback the rule book 30 years, that player at QB isn't winning any Super Bowls.  QB has to elevate those around him.  QBs that are carried by the team are always exposed in the playoffs. Closest thing to an average QB that has won the SB recently is Jalen Hurts.  But he's so unique with his legs and the unstoppable tush push that I don't think it's easy to compare him to anyone.  Certainly not someone who is subbed out for QB sneaks.

      You absolutely can have hope. You can’t convert people though; making advocacy posts are kind of … not reading the room.   I had a small hope that he would be able to at least manage some games and that they could make it work in some kind of no fun to watch fashion.  But honestly I had 100% determined he was not NFL starter material, and I had conviction. So to root for him to marginally succeed goes against the best interest of the Panthers long term, according to my beliefs. I wanted him gone the minute he got here if I am honest.It was up to him to prove otherwise.  He has rarely shown me anything to think I was wrong on his ceiling.  He did show me some courage last year, standing in the pocket and stepping into his throw in the face of pressure - but that has gone somewhere. He made some nice throws last year in places too, but they invested in him on the level of the Atlanta game should be his norm. Good luck seeing that again on Sunday. Still, he did it once, so technically it could happen again.

      Damn that was a longer post than I intended, Maybe I should have started a new thread.
