PFT: The worst moments in Panthers franchise history


CatMan72

Recommended Posts

Drafting Jimmy Clausen with the 33rd pick then drafting Cam Newton with the 1st pick the following season.. And still not having a franchise QB.

Are people this ignorant or do they not care so much about the Panthers, that they have no clue about even the most simplest details?

4. Losing to ATL in our first game. (huh?)

3. Rae Carruth.

2. SB 38 loss

1. 2008 playoff loss.

Crappy list, how is losing a playoff game worse than losing the SB and how is any of that worse than Rae Carruth?

It's a bad moment for an expansion team to lose it's first game against a well-established team like the Falcons? I would say the Falcons almost getting beat by an expansion team in it's first game is a worse moment for the Falcons.

How about going 1-15 in 2001?

How about going 2-14 last year?

That loss to Atlanta being on the list is just f'ing stupid. That was actually one of the best 50 moments in team history if only because of how exciting the game was and how crazy it was that we almost started off with a win. If one of our offensive lineman didn't jump offsides late (on a 2-point conversion try maybe?) we might have won it.

He did get the Top 3 right however (although I'm not sure about the order). What I like about Florio is, as hateable as he can be at times, at least he knows the Carolina Panthers probably more so than any other national guy. There's no way that any national guy remembers that Sunday Night Football game vs. the Giants in 2008 that Florio mentioned.

we're such a young franchise we haven't had a chance to REALLY have some bad moments. He picked the most dissapointing, not really the worst moments.

I'd rather lose the superbowl than go 1-15 or 4-12. I'd rather Jake throw 5 INTs in the playoffs than throw 4 INTS to open the season like he did in 09.

asking peppers publically to step up when he was obviously very sheepish was really bad. Then letting peppers walk for nothing while also being the franchise that got worked in a trade previously for another high profile defensive lineman.

He covers a lot of them in honorable mentions.

Rae Carruth should be number one, even though it's really about a person who just happened to be a Panther.

The 2008 playoff game should be number two. The running game was too good to be blown out like that. Nobody was really picking us to win the SB.

    • PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.   
    • Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor. 
    • Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
