Per the Observer (link)

All three have been the subject of some speculation during the offseason.

It'll be odd to see a Panthers roster without Nick Goings. He's been a real staple of the team for years.

Bridges was such a good story when he came here. Sad to see him decline (character issues definitely hurt).

Hackett could have been a lot better if he'd been able to overcome the injuries.

No huge surprises here, unless you weren't expecting Goings.

I want to see Jarrett, Carter, and Robinson all have good seasons.

I think they could, then I remember that Jake Delhomme is QB and can't make throws to anyone outside Moose and Smith.

We have a lot of receiving weapons, we just don't use them. Deangelo, Rosario, Jarrett, and Stewart could all be used so much more. I believe Carter and Robinson could be in there, but they need playing time.

I had such high hopes for Hackett and think he will eventually get past his injuries and be a good receiver, but I can understand letting him go.

Goings should have been gone two years ago, but it’s still sad to see him leave, especially after all he’s done for us. :(

Bridges was great depth, but the incident last month (year?) definitely didn’t help secure his spot.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Bryce and Dave will determine how many games this team wins next year. It’s not on the WRs. The RBs. LBs. This is about 2 things: 1. Can Bryce continue to come up big in the few key downs that decide most games?  2. Can Canales evolve his play calling to counter punch like the big boys do. Half time adjustments.  teams that score 30+ points on the regular win more games than not. That’s on Bryce and Dave. The offense is top 10 at every position group, save for TE and QB. A baller TE is gravy but not crucial when the receivers are dudes.  The defense is the defense. It’ll be better this season, hopefully by a large margin, but Dave/Bryce is really where it’s at.

      Normally I'd wholeheartedly agree with this. But I feel like teams figured out this offense after the Raiders game. Bryce was so inept the first 2 games that we couldn't really even run the offense. Dalton's first game showed what we had. But after that game, coverages got a lot tighter and windows were smaller. When Bryce came back in, his ability to extend plays made a big difference. It's really difficult to stop a QB that can beat/escape 1on1 tacklers. It puts a lot of pressure on the defense when you blitz. And he was completing throws in tight coverage with anticipation. Point being Bryce wasn't throwing to wide open receivers that were schemed open by the offense. Occasionally yes. But not often.

      With the additions we've made to our roster combined with the state of the division and the conference as a whole there is no excuse for this team not to make a legitimate push for 8-9 wins. Anything less is honestly inexcusable. There will be no more free passes for being a doormat in this iteration of the league where even mediocre teams are competing for playoff spots.
