I don't like the Bears but fug the Cowboys lol

If we didn't make that dumbass trade I could kinda go for the Bears in a random game occasionally

Saints will fall to 0-3 and just like that the Panthers are 2nd in the division

Imagine if we didn't somehow completely screw up Bakers potential lol.

Not really. If we had approached things the right way from the jump instead of making the splash trade up because it's what Tepper wanted we wouldn't have even been in position to draft him.

The Panthers have been where they are these last several years because our decision makers continually think they are the smartest in the room instead of just building with an actual plan.

While I give Baker Mayfield credit for his turnaround I wouldn't be surprised to see him brought back down to earth down the line. I mean yeah you're 3-0 but plenty of teams have started out hot and finished sputtering. Plus at the end of the day you beat the Tyrod Taylor led Jets by 2 points. And you use that as an opportunity to settle scores with former coaches. Sounds like he still needs some humbling.

I think he has had 3 game winning drives in there 3 wins. Pretty impressive, but I agree with the whole settling the score thing. He asked Wilks to release him once he was benched for Darnold and Wilks did him a favor and did it. There is no grudge to be had there.

Caleb would have drowned here like Baker, Sam, and Bryce (so far).

Lot of NFL is PR and bologna though.  In real time, teams often say things publicly that are different behind the scenes.  

with Bakers comments today, it wouldn’t be wild for the Panthers to just say we are trading you…..and we will be happy to put it out there you wanted out to make it not look as horrible for you and your career
