I can honestly say Im freaking impressed with the Panthers

Today was a great game. Never would I think the 4-8 Panthers would hang an easy 23 points on us in pure domination in a first half after struggling to score a TD against our backups last season. That kid Cam is ridiculously athletic escaping SURE sacks, and even a safety to make plays, but he's still a rookie and you can tell. Once this team is healthy and mature, ill think twice before underestimating them next year. I still hope they fail for as long as I'm alive but that's my job right?

Still the dislike I have for the Panthers can't match the pure rage and hate I have for the stupid Taints. I hope we both destroy them come week 16/17.

I am ready to win some games. The last 2 years have stunk. I feel like if we add some defensive pieces and Cam progresses we are going to be much improved next year. I am still not sure of Rivera but we will see. Sick of getting leads and offense going to sleep in second half.

I'm a little dissapointed in the falcons for throwing away future drafts for Julio Jones. I think he's a hell of an athlete but I like my division to be competitive and ATL kind of secured being pooty for atleast 3-4 years. Just being honest.. no hate, I'd rather you be decent for good competition and renewed rivalry.

edit, And it's pretty obvious with our defensive starters and some experience under Cam's belt this game would've been no contest..

    • I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.  
    • Will be interesting to see how they come out tonight. The Boston game seemed to open the flood gates of media attention. And it’s not just that they’re playing well, in some instances they are getting compared with all time greats. This is still a young team, and it would be easy for an immature team to lose some focus, buy into their own hype, and think they can coast bit. The Heat are a middle of the road team without their leading scorer. There is no big dragon to slay, no big statement to make. I think we’ll learn a lot tonight: are they young but mature, or do they still have a ways to go mentally?
    • Panthers North for the win. Good luck to him. Great guy, hated to see him leave here, but he's about to work with the best QB he's ever worked with (at least on a regular basis).
