a few observations from an objective NFL fan

Too Much hero worship. Perhaps Panthers owners, GM, and coaches bought into the Cam Newton hype and forget build a team.

The defense is atrocious. Eli Manning made the D-line and DBs look silly.

The offense prefers to use high school trickery over proven NFL winning techniques. Cam is basically a single-read QB. That may have worked in the SEC, but it will not work in a league where film study never takes a backseat to talent

This team confuses boorish behavior with toughness. Little 89 can yell like a mad man all he wants. At the end of the day he's an aging WR with a Napoleon complex surrounded by a bunch of men who would rather tell you what they are rather than prove it.

This is not a good team. I rate this team slightly above the KC Chiefs.

Cam Newton is far from a single read QB, hilarous to me that people still think of that. I could barely watch the game myself, but even I could tell Newton is still the only highlight of that team with his ability to look off defenders, check down and go through his reads and make difficult throws. 3INTs look horrible when your Defense can't stop a drive and give your offense a chance to have a balanced attack and not continue to play from behind.

You're objective in the same way a constipated turd has a great view of the night sky.

I honestly haven't seen enough panthers games to make a judgement on where Cam is, but the games I have seen (last night and particularly last year's games against the falcons) its been pretty ugly

The defense looks confused. Eli had time to go throw his progressions twice. Don't understand how a team expects to win with Bad DBs and no pass rush. Does not makes sense considering the new HC is suppose to be a defense-first guy.

    • I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we? 
    • Yep,and Blake Miller have had more experiences than Freeling,Lions did not sigh a vet T like Walker,so they had to pick Miller.
    • I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
