We are just as bad (if not worse) as the 2-14 Panthers.

So sitting here thinking, it hit me. It is laughable than many of us (myself included) thought we had a true shot at the playoffs. But really, why? When you really think about it, outside of Cam Newton, this team is the same exact team from 2010. I mean, can anyone honestly say we have made any improvements on one single position other than QB since 2010? Aside from Cam Newton our 2011 draft was a joke. You might say Kuechly, sure this guy has pro bowl potential all over him but he pretty much just replaced the already pro bowler MLB Jon Beason so thats a wash.

O line? We lost a great RT in Otah, a great guard in Wharton and replaced him with a division II rookie (a promising one yes). WR? Don't get me started at WR. This team has avoided upgrading the WR position like its herpes. We have a 33 year old WR, a great one yes but nonetheless a 33 year old, 5'9 WR when in today's NFL its the bigger sized WRs that are dominating.

So what have we done since 2010? Aside from Cam this is the same exact team from 2010. I mean it blows my fuging mind. I mean, how on earth can a NFL team go 2-14, keep the same GM and that GM goes and pay ungodly amounts of money to the same exact players on that same 2-14 team. Lol, I mean this is really the stuff a bad sports comedy movie is made of. It just BLOWS. MY. MIND.

Last but not least, you might be thinking. "Well, 2011 was such a improved season, I mean we went from 2 wins to 6 wins in just one year." Yea, about those 6 wins last year, lets talk about that shall we.. So who exactly did we beat last year.... Jacksonville Jaguars, the one team I am 100% confident we are better than, just garbage. Tampa Bay Bucs, a Bucs team that quit on their HC and played every game with the effort of a pre season game. Indianianoplis Colts, 2-14 Colts team that was fully in Suck For Luck mode. Last but not least, the Houston Texans. Ok, ill give you the Texans win but even thats being generous considering they just came off clinching the division a week before and probably werent in full force. Oh wait, I almost forgot. Washington Redskins, a team with John Beck at QB.. Need I say more?

SO. Lets recap. Since 2010 we have.. A. Upgraded at QB. B. Kept the same GM who in turned signed the same players from said 2-14 team and C. Have 6 wins in 2011 against teams who finished the 2011 season with a total record of 29-66. I hate to pour even more salt on the wound, but sonce 2010 we have ONLY beat teams with a combined win/loss record of 40-87. OUCH!! That salt stings.

Let's see...

Bell, new and an improvement.

Olsen, new and...

Amini, new and...

Alexander...

Norman...

Kuechly...

The Edwards twins...

Nortman...

Medlock...

All these guys are from 2011 to present. So, you might say, we have added some talent in the last two years.

So, we hae tried to address the talent level. Just not happening as quickly as some folks are wanting.

When the offense figures things out. We are going to be fine. I would say to have some patience, but I have a feeling that is a waste of time.

My god, you're so damn dumb, either you're doing this for attention or you actually are dumb/Didn't watch the 2010 season. You do realize we were literally the worst offense in 15 years, right?

But at the end of the day we ARE our record. Even if we have the 1st ranked offense and go 2-14, we are just as bad. 1-4 right now, which lets be real, we are a unsuspended Sean Payton away from 0-5. Quite possibly staring down 1-6 with the Cowboys and Bears next.

Oh please, we gave New Orleans a run for their money last year WITH Sean Payton they only won by three points, mind you. This season is not even over yet, so stop exaggerating like a little bitchm

Please just stop posting if you are always going to be this pessimistic as if you are on a mission to bring everyone down. You still have the John Fox mentality and always thinking negatively. The panthers are trying to develop a winner's mentality, always bitching about how bad we are is not the mindset of a winner Always believe that you are better than the next guy and if you don't, then you have lost already. So please grow a pair and stop acting like someone pisses in your cereal every morning or gtfo of here.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
