Peyton Manning went 3-13 as a starter

We have the hardest schedule in the league

We're missing starters all over the defense

I know we can't sit here and make excuses, but the seasons not lost by any means.

Remember this time last year. Our offense was aenemic. Our defense would be exhausted mid way through the second cause our offense was so bad. The offense couldn't throw down field, and the run game would get stuffed before they could do anything.

Would you rather the Panthers be getting blown out, being a joke of a team?

If you thought this was a playoff year, you mustve been smoking some goody good.

without wins it's hard to not be considered a joke.

eventually these guys are just going to be looked at as overrated and "they are who we thought they are".

all hype that has been received was unwarranted.

this team might be good in the future, but they've got a whole lot of stuff to work out on defense before that ever comes about.

Ray you know I am a fan of yours, but what exactly did you expect this year?? And did those expectations change when we lost TD, Beast, and Edwards??

I think there is a lot of frustration that we have been so close and have only one win to this point. But I don't think anyone after the preseason was saying we should be beat GB, NO, CHI and ATL.

As a matter of fact Raging Bull started a thread trying to convince everyone that we had a chance against the Arizona because no one really thought we would win that game.

i expected more than just one win at this point.

i expected us to be weaker on offense than defense...at least coming into the season.

i expect us not to have a swiss cheese defense, even without beason and TD.

i expect us to go into ATL and beat a lesser team. that didn't happen.

the team that almost beat the bears, packers, and saints didn't show up. the team regressed. it shouldn't have gotten beat and it doesn't look like it's getting any better. they are in 'must win' mode.

every week that they "almost" win i can see optimism on this team dwindling. they have to pull their heads out of their asses and get things right. screw this whole excuse of looking ahead. this team needs to learn how to win now if it wants win in the future. all they are getting good at is pissing away potential wins. that is a trend that needs to be bucked now.

Looking at our schedule before the season you thought we would have more than 1 win at this point??

You are an optimist. :)

The problem is that we are playing better than anyone thought and now suddenly we think this team should be a playoff team. We are a 2-14 team that only added a couple of tight ends and a QB. Plus our 2-14 defense lost arguably their two best players and also arguably the most important offseason pick up (Edwards).

There is no doubt it has been frustrating losing these close games but we have to stay grounded in reality.

The one positive thing is that Cam and this coaching staff has already risen the expectations of this team that we believe we are better than ATL who was #1 in the NFC last year. And that to me is a good thing.

      Facts it's still crazy that they made him sell over that especially considering what some of the other owners have done.  JR was a rich 80 year old white man from the south I'm not at all surprised about him making some "inappropriate" comments about what a woman is wearing water is wet what a surprise. That's just the way things were done during his time, and he should and did get punished for his actions by paying some hefty fines, but it definitely wasn't something that he should've been forced to sell his team over.  I'll never forget him insulting Peyton Manning during a negotiation, reportedly belittling the quarterback’s knowledge of player safety and asking, “Do I need to help you read a revenue chart, son?

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.
