Panthers second worst in the league for penalties

We are averaging 8 per game which is only better than Oakland.

Penalties often mean your team is outmatched but 3 of our opponents have been pretty mediocre.

If you have watched the games you will know several of our scoring drives have been ruined by untimely penalties.

Fix this and we start winning.

Most have been on offense and many are illegal formation penalties. I expect we'll improve here as everyone gets more comfortable with the offense and formations and such.

It's one area that needs improvement, but zero penalties won't guarantee a win. SF is almost as bad in the penalty dept. and they're 3-1. They can defend the run. We can't.

Luck was smart to stay in school.

Who knew the Panthers would be lucky that Luck didn't come out early? I was pissed until game #1. Now I'd take Cam over any young QB in the league.

under Fox our defense couldn't cover a TE......

under Chud's offense we don't cover the T.

But cam Cam take the loses?

Stop your fuging trolling, Luck is nothing guaranteed and Newton is. If you aren't gonna support our QB I suggest you find another fuging team, or support whatever fuging team Luck lands on.

Is there any truth to Cam cussing out Olsen? We are on the cusp and he knows this. Every game, it truly is something that we don't account for. Two games it's been special teams now. Today also was officiating on the worst offensive pass interference call. Green Bay game it was the penalties. This is a 4-0 team. But we're 1-3 thanks to dumb sh*t. And boy I hate dumb sh*t.

I've noticed that week 4 is usually when the "Find a new team!" posts start.

Formation penalties happen a lot in an offense that does a lot of pre-snap shifting, especially when the team is just learning it.

If you want Luck, its probably because he's white. And that's the honest truth.

The racism usually doesn't start until week 6 but good job getting an early start.

Luck will be a beast, but since he'll likely be playing in Kansas City or Denver or Indy I really could care less. We've found our QB and that's all that matters to me.
