Matt Moore was underrated and never given a fair chance to be the guy. I will die on that hill.

2008 Panthers with Matt Moore would have crushed Arizona in the divisional round.

I throughly enjoyed and appreciated Matt in the time he started, but I also am glad things went the way they did.  Had he been given his fair shot, we never get Cam.

but I also do believe Matt deserved to a be an NFL starter long-term.

Yeah I agree but as quick as Tepper has been to fire makes me think DC or DM made the vouch. 

Morgan would be my guess. Can’t fathom that we would even consider interviewing anyone on Fitterer’s staff let alone hiring his right hand man

I thought he got a lot of chances with both us and Miami. Didn’t he start one season for us?

So... definitely some things that need to be cleaned up but also some positives.

Bad

  • Bryce has had more bad plays than good. While he did a good job getting Dowdle lined up on the 3rd down conversion he has also underthrown Renfrow, missed TMac wide left, and then didn't see the DB in the area on the pick. Going to need a lot better than that for the team to not go looking for his replacement next year.
  • LBs are looking extra rough. Rozeboom has bounced off of tackles and Wallace seems to be out of position more often than not. There ain't much talent behind them either.
  • Pressure is coming from coverage creating second chances rather than guys winning on their first step still.

Good

  • The run game is looking really good even without Icky.
  • Wharton and Moehrig, the two big defensive signings, are leading the team in tackles at the delay. Both seem to just find their way to the ball.
  • The secondary in general is doing a good job of sticking in coverage + tackling. That LB group is making the middle of the field such a liability though.
  • Pie 3

Yeah but dude as quick to fire people as Tepper is, you can’t tell me that wasn’t Morgan or Canales saying they could figure it out. I think if it was up to Tepper, Evero would have been gone last year. 

He always fires some and keeps others which is why he always has the same product in different ways. 2023 should have been a fire everyone and he didn't and here we are yet again. 

I think Morgan was on the Bryce train and he just brought his friend and admittedly his best option to do the impossible in the most controllable way. Tepper never left that train and this is the result of building around a dead end for 3 years in different ways. Good oline, good run game, open WRs and still a bottom dweller. Someone also has a blind spot for Evero and I am guessing that's from up top too...that or Morgan and DC are just that oblivious which seems like a stretch for their strengths and weaknesses.

Amazing. 15 minutes into the season and everyones already talking about how the season is already over - 15 minutes. 

Over? The season is not over, but at best something around middling. Woo hoo!  I think we'll top last year's win total. However, besting a pretty dreadful threshold isn't something to be giddy over unless it's significant.  It won't be.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
