Didn't we beat zona last year with a worst team?

Why are people acting like AZ is such a great team when Jimmy clausen beat them? Were talking about one upgrade on the their team, and pp7 doesn't count cuz dominque is way better than him AT THIS POINT and time. So were talking about Kevin kolb... Kolb???? Kolb is the reason everyone thinks we'll have trouble? Ef my butt with a rusty razor blade, it's kevin kolb. He is not a legitimate reason to say were gonna lose to the cards. And so what about our dts, Arizona is the only team we don't have to worry about them running it on us.

I agree 100% with the OP. I feel very confident going into this game against Arizona.

The Cardinals will find out soon enough how bad the Eagles screwed them on the Kolb trade. I feel like the defense and offense will show a good bit of improvement from the preseason.

Panthers 24 - Cardinals 17

hey guys kolb was not our only upgrade we had. We are a much better team then we were last year. new def cord that knows how to coach. yeah you guys saw DRC making big plays but DRC was avg he got burned allot and did not know how to tackle. It was either all or nothing with him. We also have King and Heap at TE. If Beanie Wells stays healthy he will have 1200 to 1600 yards this year he has been a beast in preseason. The only thing you have going for you is your running game. Cam sucks and he wont beat us with his arm.

    • See, I have a different view of it. I think that just the opposite is very true, and often proven on our very own team.  Look at the impact that CMC had when he was here.  Look at how bring in two top rate IOL to play guard last season made a huge difference in finally getting a stable front for Bryce to live behind. It took a while for it to bear fruit, but those last games were just relevatory. And off ball linebackers like Luke Kuechly, not just running a defense but dictating the game when he's on the field, truly remarkable what a difference that makes. Personally, he had as much or maybe even more to do with that Super Bowl appearance as Cam did.  What I see in the NFL is teams trying hard to cover up for a lack of good linebackers by stacking the D-line. But it gives them a crust defense, one that is hard and crunchy on the outside but a feast within. Linebackers shouldn't just rule the middle of the field, but should be directing traffic and working as enforcers.  But hey, whatever. "Devalued" positions often come back to bite you in the ass when they are neglected. Ask anyone who has had to clean up the mess left behind by a former college coach who took over a pro team and brought their college recruiting mindset in. Yanno, like Matt Rhule did.   
    • I see it this way--XL was raw.  Raw players when drafted who are forced to start immediately are very raw players in the NFL-- How is he helped? TMac will shift the focus of the defense away from XL.  XL will be more experienced.  He will have an offseason of jugs work.  He is a very good athlete.  He can only get better.  Wallace?  Same thing.  He will get better with an improved defensive front and the addition of these heat-seeking head hunters at S.  I think about the players we will have on defense in 2025 that we did not have in 2024. Derrick Brown. DE Brown III NT Wharton DE Jones Edge Moehrig S Princely. Edge Scourton. Edge Ransom. S Cam Jackson NT Roseboom  LB While we may not know what we have, we know what we don't have--  
    • If he hit the jugs machine, X is going to beast. He got open a lot. He just didn't bring it in consistently.
