Panthers vs Bengals (Don't get too excited)

Think of the Bengals as last years Panthers. Their starting QB actually retired instead of choosing to stay on the team because the Bengals wouldn't trade him stating that "Cincinnati is where quarterback careers go to die." They traded their number one receiver who had been disgruntled with the team for some time.

No one can believe Marvin Lewis is still around and is by all accounts is a lame duck coach just waiting to get fired.

The team won 4 games last year and so far in the preseason they have lost both of their games to scores of:

34-3 and 27-7...ewww

If you also look at the Giants team we played I can point to some glaring negative omens for that team as well.

I have optimism for the Panthers in the future. I think our team will only get better as the season goes on. Just take this game with a grain of salt, and don't look to deep into it if we crush the Bengals.

Look at it as a good game for Newton to get more reps and get more comfortable with the offense; and for the DTs, WRs and CBs to continue to improve.

Let's just have some long sustaining drives with good 3rd down efficiency.

My concern in this game is for our defense... not Cam or our offense.

If we let them get more than 10 points on us before the start of the 4th quarter, we have serious... serious problems on the D side of the ball.

And if our D is garbage, it doesn't matter if Newton was throwing like Tom Brady and running like Vick... we aren't gonna win games.

You mean don't take a preseason win seriously?

OMGWTFBBQ

Its the 3rd Preseason game. Both teams are trying to win and bounce back from tough losses to raise the spirits of the club.

While this game isn't as serious as a regular season game and no one will tell you it is both clubs really want a W.

I'm expecting the Panthers to take it.

this.

i already pointed this out in another thread. the defense will be the reason Carolina will or won't win games...too much pressure will be put on cam (or Clausen) to carry the team if the defense doesn't produce.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      LOL, I tried to do this also....But I never found enough to make a guess.

      Who is/will be an 'All time great' thats on our roster right now?

      By Basbear · Posted

      gosh no one cares about the OGs...   Id list hunt here too, if not for missing 95% of the season.   Best I can say, Tri Turner was the best OG in panthers history if you factor in career length. Wharton was super solid, but never elite. Norwell while having a 1st all-pro, only played 2.5 starting years.    If lewis stays on the panthers and keeps his play lvl at 2025, his path is right there and easy. In 2028 he could be the best OG in panthers history.    Dang if panthers or NFL don't have long great careers.....its sooo rare.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By Basbear · Posted

      All true, Stafford and Mccvay were both talking about "retiring" during those future picks too, I member. In my computer when you make future trade, I feel you have to factor in the worst case or close to it from your side. The big issue for the panthers, maybe even now is that they have not proven they can draft well enough to trade. I know that Dan and company have not traded future picks and they seem to always want 7-8 picks overall. They like to trade 3 picks for 3 picks or 2 for 2.   It would have been great to flip BB for that haul and use those Rams picks instead of the first overall pick...... Verse wise, Jesus what a beast....... Garrett is the top dawg and all, but man this is rough for me. I also noticed this about the panthers they are pedo bears, they like dem young. So a 25 year old verse would have gotten gigged with the panthers. Even with NIL and 6th year, and even coofus fallback, panthers prefer younger players. Monroe Freeling (Round 1, Pick 19 | OT, Georgia): 21 years old Lee Hunter (Round 2, Pick 49 | DT, Texas Tech): 22 years old (estimated) Chris Brazzell II (Round 3, Pick 83 | WR, Tennessee): 22 years old Will Lee III (Round 4, Pick 129 | CB, Texas A&M): 21-22 years old (estimated) Sam Hecht (Round 5, Pick 144 | C, Kansas State): 21-22 years old (estimated) Zakee Wheatley (Round 5, Pick 151 | S, Penn State): 22 years old (estimated) Jackson Kuwatch (Round 7, Pick 227 | LB, Miami OH): 22-23 years old   Tetairoa McMillan, WR (Arizona) — Age: 22 Nic Scourton, EDGE (Texas A&M) — Age: 20 Princely Umanmielen, EDGE (Ole Miss) — Age: 21 Trevor Etienne, RB (Georgia) — Age: 20 Lathan Ransom, SAF (Ohio State) — Age: 23 Cam Jackson, DT (FL)- age 22 Mitchell Evans, TE (ND)- age 22 Horn-22   Fitterererere just turned out to be a awful hire, too green, too willing to please, no sense of what talent looks like on teams other than Seahawks, too much pressure, didnt have the correct network of coaches and FO office people. Kick was herniay leftd him with a bare bones talent to start with and besides taking a bottom level team and improving it, he made it even worse AND trading prime draft picks to prolong the timeline to fix. People forget Dan didn't have the 1st overall pick and 39th overall(that dude looking good for bears) to repair this team. Dan could have traded that 1st overall for a proven 1k WR, 9th overall, future 1st and future 2nd......
