Who else thought wed be #1 in the division at anytime this year?

I think we can be #1. The focus needs to get off Cam and put on our

offense/defense. I think Cam has improved and will continue to improve, but he has to have confidence that when he passes the guys on the field will make it happen. We need to block, and open up for our runners. We missed a great opportunity to tie the game yesterday. #17 need enzone coaching.

Why do we give these teams so much opening to run? Who gets paid to to close this gap and where are our fast runners? Where is the endurance? We can't tackle by touching the jersey, contact is the only way to take them down. Glad to see the connection b/twn Cam and Smitty. Luv my Panthers

Reality to Panther fans!

You are 0-1.

Don't start printing your Super Bowl tickets just yet! You might want to wait until the Bye Week before you wear your arms out patting each other on the back.

But Cam looked good out there. He's probably the best QB to ever start for the Carolina Panthers! (I'm not sure that list is all that stellar though!)

Kerry Collins

Frank Reich

Steve Beuerlein

Chris Weinke

Matt Lytle

Rodney Peete

Randy Fasani (You can't forget him!)

Jake Delhomme

Vinny Testaverde (It's a wonder he didn't need a walker just to take the field!)

David Carr

Matt Moore

Jimmy Clausen

Brian St. Pierre (Don't forget him!)

Cam Newton

Though Jake did lead you to a Super Bowl!

And then there's your scedule:

    • Dalton is ancient by NFL standards. Howell is only 25.  Howell's only year as a starter he put up almost 4k yards, 21/21 with a 43.2 QBR while being sacked 65 times.  This past year and the 3rd starting, which many would consider to be Bryce's best, he barely put up 3k yards 23/11 with a QBR of 47.6 while being sacked 27 times.  Pickett 4 years in the league, with 27 starts, he's amassed 4900 yards, 16/16 with a 53.6 QBR.  Now if Bryce were injured for a season, which QB would you say has more potential to step in and run an offense? I'd say Howell only because in a single season he threw for 1k yards less, more tds and granted more ints in 11 less games as a starter than Pickett's whole career.  Everyone is saying Pickett sucks, Howell sucks, but what I'm seeing is Bryce is right on par with them. Howell is on his 5th team, so is KP, yet Bryce just got a 5th year extension putting up pretty much similar numbers. The bar for QB on this organization is really low.  Did I want Howell? I didn't care. I wanted someone, anyone, who can potentially be better than what we've had the past 3 years or who we signed as a backup. We do not have even a mid tier NFL QB on the roster right now.  If Howell was brought in as camp fodder and didn't make the cut, wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. If we bring in another QB via the draft, I hope it's someone who could have the potential to be a starting QB with some development because that's the whole point.  We can't be afraid to bring in anyone who might have the potential to unseat Bryce or take his job if he's injured. The goal is to get winning seasons and make SB runs with hopefully a victory or 2. Pickett doesn't accomplish that. Dalton hasn't been able to even be in consideration for that role in over 2 years. 
    • Next 2, Brooklyn and Philly are must wins that we should have no problems winning. Other 2 are Knicks and Celtics in Charlotte, split those. I think that 5 of 6 is very doable. And probably will be necessary for our pursuit of a 6-8 seed. Hawks keep rolling sadly but at least Miami and Orlando finally slipping up after they both had long winning streaks like Atlanta. 76ers obviously in a free fall
