Peter King ranks the Panthers #18

Another one not crazy about our QB. Amazing how one game can destroy a reputation.

Jakes reputation was already a bit tarnished for whatever reason over the past few years, but now people can't help but talk about that one game as if it overshadows anything good he's ever done. If you talk to fans of other teams it's all they know to mention, god forbid they actually take into account our new DC who should help our defense out a ton and our offense which is downright scary even against teams who have a reputation for stopping the run.

he makes some solid points. We didn't play good at all down the stretch so 18 is about right.

We went 4-2 over those last 6 games he mentioned, and our defense is going to be much improved this year, we have the offensive capability to compensate for a struggling defense if it comes down to it.

I also feel like our dominant running game gets overlooked because running the ball just isn't sexy enough for them. Maybe I shouldn't have used that term on a football forum...oh well.

what he said was not that bad

Sorry. I can't get the taste of that last game out of my mouth. That was as bad a game as I've seen a playoff quarterback play in years, and as much as I admire Jake Delhomme as a person and like him as a player, I'm going to have to see him play better than the guy who was just OK (59 percent completions, 206 passing yards a game) last year. The Julius Peppers situation is unsettling too, particularly for a team that didn't play well on defense at all down the stretch. Points allowed, last seven games: 45, 31, 23, 10, 34, 31, 33. So pardon me if I'm not on the Panthers bandwagon just yet.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
