This team is dangerous.

I don't know when, but this team is going to be very good. We're already extremely dangerous... We just need consistency.

I saw glimpses of our defense standing up and saying "not this time." I also saw coverage breakdowns and gaping holes, but we saw glimpses of what could, in the future, be a dominant defense. Even though we gave up huge plays again, I think this was overall a better defensive effort given the 4 turnovers.

Our offense... man... if that running game gets on track, this team is going to just flat out roll some teams over. Chud's short yardage stuff is strange, but I like that he isn't afraid of leaning on the passing game when it's working.... but I think he(Chud) needs to trust his backs more. Cam made mistakes, but he shows repeated glimpses of greatness, sometimes on the same damn drive. This kid is for real - if he keeps working at it, the sky is the limit for this offense.

Right now, mistakes are leading to big plays and killing us. But they are fixable mistakes, and they are areas I think we can address.

During the preseason I expected four wins. I don't know how we'll do, but this team is miles further along than I expected. We are going to be in literally every game and we will give every opponent a run for their money.

We HAVE to get that running game going. Chud gives up way too early on it. I don't know why we even used money on DWill if this is how we are going, I'd have rather spent it on a DT or something else honestly.

If you can get Dwill/Stew running, it's going to be almost impossible to contain Cam.

Defense stepped it up today, they surprised me, give them some time.

Impressive guys. I did not think it was going to be such a game like it was. Cam coming out of college I thought would be another Vince Young but obviously he's the real deal. This is going to be one of those teams this year you need to worry about, better than the record shows. Great game guys, all the best for the rest of the season.

Good game I agree there. We just still have some holes to fill in the offseason. Like a legit number2 WR. The oline needs some help on right side. The D needs a solid number 2 CB and a vet DT. Panthers can win about 6-8 games this season. But most these games will be close or in reach until they learn to finish out game. Missing otah and beason might have been a big minus for us. Who knows right now. But the panthers does have a team here right now and for years to come. They just need a few more key players on both sides of the ball to help out.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.

      I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.

      You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
