Why in the hell do analyst think we have no talent?

This is getting ridiculous, It's not like we've been in the sh*tter for years like the Bills, and Lions.

On Defense

1. We have an outstanding group of LB's.

2. We have a monster DE named "Charles Johnson" who was 5th in the NFL with sacks and a group of promising DE's like Brown, Brayton, and Norwood.

3. We are OK in DB's we have Godfrey, Martin, and Munnerlyn.

On Offense

1. Promising WR's who have shown talent all this season, but how could they "Breakout" when they haven't been getting the damn ball dumba**es?

2. Tight ends: we've recently signed Shockey who should be a star on offense if he stays healthy.

3. RB's: We have arguably the best depth in that position in the NFL, with all star's like J-stew, D-will, and upcoming star KR/HB Goodson.

So take notes.

They're looking at our offensive talent level, particularly our WRs, and they're not impressed. They also know we lost Peppers on defense, and didn't go out and get a big FA player to replace him.

I don't think our talent level is extremely low, but we're certainly lacking in comparison to other teams in the league.

Yeah, let's blame all the offensive woes on the QB... smfh.

Because it is, how in the hell are the WR's gonna get the damn ball to make a play?

Stewart and Goodson did well running last year, but they couldn't get it done by their selves. And like Deangelo said, running is established through QB play.

So the offensive line has jack to do with it. The POP warner play calling is moot too? Give me a break. You open up the passing game with the run. The run game last year was sporadic at best, inconsistent. Blame EVERYONE not just the QB..

Sure, QB was sooooo not a problem that we just drafted a QB with the #1 pick for depth.

Please , read my post again. Never did I say the QB Was not PART of the problem. He is just that. 'Part' of the problem. Oc is gone, fox is gone as well. The run game will hopefully get a good start, the o line will be back, Otah will hopefully not be hurt.

I don't believe its fair to place the blame on a sole position. If you honestly believe that by drafting cam it will solve the problem then you're in denial. That's my .02 on it.

I think the biggest part of it is that the Panthers have *so* much in the way of untested personnel and I do include Ron Rivera in that lot.

I feel pretty good about things. Sure, I'm kind of a pragmatic homer, but a homer nonetheless.

The analysts are looking at things as objectively as they can, and all they can really praise for certain is our stable of running backs, Beason, and the emergence of Charles Johnson in 2010.

You could, of course, throw Steve Smith into that mix, but there's so much speculation on his possible departure, that it's hard to do so.

So anyway, all that said, is there really a good reason for analysts just give us any real props? Not really.

All I'm really saying is that we have a lot to prove over the next two seasons if we really want to be back in the mix, and that won't come easy in the NFCS.

Charles Johnson is not a "monster" and never include E. Brown as an "up and coming DE". Frank Garcia says it almost every day on his radio show, Charles Johnson does not make defensive coordinators lose sleep. He does not require you to double team him every play like some true monsters. E. Brown is dead in the water if a tackle gets his hands on him, which by the way, happens way too often. For Brown to pressure the QB, a tackle has to whiff on his initial punch or take an incorrect step out of his set.

That being said, we are not as sh*tty as many say we are. Our O-line was held together by duct tape last year. WR, maybe so.

    • It's football. I'll take it!
    • Games been a snooze fest of sloppy play
    • ESPN's David Newton: QUARTERBACKS (2): Bryce Young, Andy Dalton A preseason muscle injury to Dalton's right arm could force the Panthers to keep Jack Plummer if the issue gets worse, but that currently doesn't seem to be a concern. For the first time since going No. 1 in 2023, there is no question that Young is the starter after winning two of his final three games last season with 10 touchdowns (7 passing, 3 rushing) and no turnovers. RUNNING BACKS (3): Chuba Hubbard, Rico Dowdle, Trevor Etienne Selecting Etienne in the fourth round out of Georgia makes veteran Raheem Blackshear a likely cut. Etienne has shown in the preseason that he is a capable option as a runner, in addition to being a returner, which has been Blackshear's primary responsibility since 2022. WIDE RECEIVERS (7): Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen, Jalen Coker, Jimmy Horn Jr., David Moore, Hunter Renfrow This is the most improved group on the team, so keeping seven initially makes sense. If the Panthers go with six it could make coach Dave Canales' favorite, Moore, expendable with Renfrow showing he's close to the level he played in 2021 when he made the Pro Bowl with the Las Vegas Raiders. Brycen Tremayne, who's had an excellent preseason, will be a tough cut. TIGHT ENDS (3): Tommy Tremble, Ja'Tavion Sanders, Mitchell Evans There is anticipation Tremble (back surgery) will be ready for the regular season after coming off the PUP list before the preseason finale, though he could still miss a game or two. Keeping him on the 53-man roster makes sense so she doesn't have to miss the first four games. OFFENSIVE LINEMEN (10): T Ikem Ekwonu, G Damien Lewis, G Robert Hunt, C Austin Corbett, C Cade Mays, T Taylor Moton, T Yosh Nijman, T-G Brady Christensen, G Chandler Zavala, G Jarrett Kingston Injuries to guards Lewis (strained shoulder) and Zavala (knee) plays a factor in keeping 10 instead of the nine predicted going into camp. The starting five returning from 2024 had a solid preseason, but the lackluster play of backups showed depth remains a concern. DEFENSIVE LINEMEN (6): DE Derrick Brown, NT Bobby Brown III, DE Tershawn Wharton, DE A'Shawn Robinson, NT Cam Jackson , DE Jaden Crumedy A shoulder injury that has kept fifth-round pick Jackson from making an impact means Crumedy could make it here. The biggest cut will be Shy Tuttle, who has 32 starts the past two years but little to show for it. Moving on from him will create $2.4 million in cap space that can be used elsewhere. LINEBACKERS (10): OLB D.J. Wonnum, OLB Patrick Jones II, OLB Princely Umanmielen, OLB Nic Scourton, OLB Thomas Incoom, ILB Christian Rozeboom, ILB Trevin Wallace, ILB Claudin Cherelus, ILB Jon Rhattigan, ILB Jacoby Windmon The release of ILB Josey Jewell (concussion protocol) at the start of camp required immediate attention, but Rozeboom has stepped up well. Depth remains a big question, particularly inside. Moving on from draft pick Bam Martin-Scott means he'll likely end up on the practice squad. It was time to move on from OLB DJ Johnson. Look for turnover beyond the starters here. CORNERBACKS (5): Jaycee Horn, Mike Jackson, Chau Smith-Wade, Shemar Bartholomew, Corey ThorntonJackson has played well enough at times to ease the concern opposite Pro Bowler Horn. Thorton's play during camp has been a big surprise, but the overall depth of this group means there likely will be turnover. SAFETIES (4): Tre'von Moehrig, Nick Scott, Demani Richardson, Lathan Ransom The big question is how long it will take fourth-round pick Ransom to replace Scott as the starter opposite Moehrig. Also, don't rule out another experienced player being signed. SPECIALISTS (3): K Ryan Fitzgerald, P Sam Martin, LS JJ Jansen Big-legged undrafted free agent Fitzgerald out of Florida State may have solidified his spot over Matthew Wright with a 52-yard field goal in the second preseason game against the Texans. The other two spots are solid, but Carolina likely will keep an eye out for dependable veterans who end up being released.
