Iā€™m equally horrified as last year at this time.Ā 

I am a little bit more positive. I thought we had a better free agency and draft than in 2024. Still expect this to the 2nd worst roster in Panthers history but it's better than 2024, so it is technically an improvement.

I'm not seeing much change and that makes me feel less enthusiastic than last season.

I hope what we've been seeing is a big deception.

The panthers didnā€™t just go vanilla in preseasonā€¦theyā€™ve been doing it for a decade as to not tip our hand. The jags are in for a rude awakening! lol

I think the preseason performance has caused a "Meh" CloudĀ  to hover over the fan base.Ā  I still have some interest and while I don't expect a lot of wins, I think there are other things I would like to see in terms of the team at least going in the right direction.

On offense is Bryce the guy and is XL moving forward?

Is the defense performing better with DB back

Are the rookies and 2nd year players developing?

That said, for me there is some intrigue but I don't think they will compete for a playoff spot.Ā Ā

In terms of enthusiasm at this exact juncture it's a 5 only because regular season football is back and we are 0-0 and there is the development of some key young players that I am very interested in seeing in regular season action. That brief high will probably be knocked down to 1 by October though.

Iā€™m excited. Itā€™s a new season, anything can happen. Cherish these moments. Last season it literally only lasted until game 1 so enjoy this while it lasts.

Also, look at it this way, one way or another we will have a franchise QB next year. Either Bryce shows heā€™s that guy this year and itā€™s a great season, or we crash and burn and have a high draft pick in a strong QB class. No matter what, this season will provide answers and clarity moving forward.

You should know the Panthers MO by now... Terrible most of the year then win 1 or 2 meaningless games to end the season, drop 5-10 spots in the draft, and lose out on a franchise QB

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.Ā  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with aĀ canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

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

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
