??? Really what happen to Andrew Luck Bandwagon. I've see Bowers play some. He is impressive. But not worth wasting a number 1 overall on. We easly pick up a good pass rusher in FA. Our needs is more at WR and QB and DT right now. But Bowers can become a good pass rusher in the future. But not worth a number 1 unless we trade our number 1 and go down some for more draft picks.

Sidenote. You can get Bowers and have Johnson on the otherside and get a few stud DTs in FA and we got a solid linebacker core already and a good secondary. It wouldn't matter much unless you had a good QB who can move a offense down the field and score. Because sooner or later the D get tired and gets destroyed. Luck first choice and Bowers down the line. We ain't really in no big need for a stud DE right now.

I would struggle mightily to convince myself to support spending our first pick on anything but the offensive side of the ball. Our D, for what it was, could have been MUCH worse. I'm not sure the same can be said for our offense which, in order to be worse, would have to have played with mono while blindfolded all year.

Well even tho I'm not completely on board with the Luck idea yet. We need Luck more right now then Bowers. We have a decent D already. We can build our D in the FA market by find a 2 stud DTs and getting a good CB as a starter the otherside of Gamble. Our oline,WR core and our main problem is QB postion that needs addressing first thing.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
