Not bad at all. A little overly optimistic about certain things - like Sherrod Martin, sorry but the guy just isn't very good. Beason will probably stay at middle, but we'll probably see alot of 2 LB sets just using Beast and Keuchly considering they both cover so much ground and are strong in coverage.

Hey... I gotta keep everybody aware of my Awesomeness :)

I agree. Overall I was thoroughly impressed with your in-depth analysis of the Panthers. I have to agree the big question on the offense is definitely the wideout/Tight end role, mainly the second in the depth chart.

The Defensive line is also a big question mark, but I remain optimistic. I'm expecting bigger things from all of them this year since they will have a regular off season unlike last year. Especially the then, rookies, now 2 year guys. With Edwards coming back that interior line may actually be decent.

I think a lot of people instantly dismissing the fact that the Panthers won 6 games last year in spite of horrific special teams and defensive injuries. You guys realistically should've beaten the Vikes, Bears, Saints* (once), Falcons (once), Packers AND Cardinals.. that was a potentially a playoff team right there in Charlotte

Not only this, but I think if we got into the playoffs as hot as we were, and if we were able to get a couple guys back, we would've won a game or two.

The last game of the year was the worst loss of the season.

Your point?

2008 Arizona Cardinals had lost to the Patriots something like 48-7. Then ended up in the superbowl losing on a last second TD with an 8-8 record.

Your next argument against your team please?

Our secondary is garbage outside of Gamble, though Norman is showing promise he is unproven. Godfrey is meh to be honest, not as good as advertised. Sherrod Martin is awful. Brandon LaFell is a legit #2. Beason is not better suited for weakside he is a MLB, Kuechly is going to be playing weakside. Other than those things I hear what you're saying. Only time will tell where we stand in the division, though I believe the Panthers can finally knock the Saints********** off their pedestal.

We're probably going to be in a lot of close games again this season. I think we'll be good enough to hang with the better teams like the Saints**, and blow out some of the worst teams. The biggest problem I see heading into this season is that we don't have a lot of talent in the secondary, and we're facing teams like the Saints** and Falcons twice. Also, we need Cam to audible, and I don't know if he's at that level yet or not. Should be a fun season none the less, and I've never been this excited about a Panther team.

      First 4 NFL starts - Tyler Shough

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Completion percentage depends on the offense and type of QB.  So no I don't care about a raw comparison lol. If you don't know what I mean by that I don't know what to tell you. As to Baker, this is the second time you've ignored me and claimed I didn't say something when I did. I'm going to just stop r spending to that crap soon but on the possibility you are just missing these things in good faith - "Baker Mayfield is 11th in QBR, 14th in yards despite the TON of injuries that offense has had, 10th in QB rushing yards, 12th in TDs (and above the average in TD% lol), 25th in INTs (league average would be something like 16th). So yes, he's quite a bit ahead of the average in many categories." Rushing yards by a QB DO matter. You'd think Panthers fans would know that.  Some of Bryce's best plays have come when he uses his legs too, and some of that IS yards on the ground. And the reality is that Tampa has had crazy injury issues and if you look at Bakers career he is unquestionably more successful than Bryce and above average at that. This year his top 3 WRs have all missed considerable time and whose best player on offense hasn't played almost all year...

      Look at the chart. if you are claiming his numbers prove he not  an NFL caliber QB, than neither is Bo Nix, Trevor Lawrence, Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Michael Penix, CJ Stroud, Baker Mayfield and Mahommes. They are all below average and within 2 points of Youngs' numbers.

      Could be worse. Captain Clempsun is sub 60% completion
