Worst Team In The NFC

With 1 win, we are now officially the worst team in the NFC.

I don't care what anyone says, after last year and finding our franchise QB, we should've been able to build on that and make some moderate progress, at the least, from that team we fielded last year.

We haven't and that is inexcusable, especially considering that the defense has held up enough to put us in positions to win. The regression of the offense speaks to the ineptitude of the coaching staff and poor personnel decisions by Hurney in not adding proven vets to shore up weak positions. Beating a dead horse but it's true.

No I don't think you guys are the worst team in the NFC. I know there are those that say you are what your record shows you are but you guys are in everygame you play. Surprising to me is that your defense is keeping the games close but the offense is not performing as it can. It has been stated in numerous threads all season long but the coaching staff for some strange reason is not putting the team in the best position to win games. Legitimate questions asked each week in here...Why aren't you guys running the ball from the formations that worked last year? Why aren't you guys using the double TE set that worked last year? It is pretty obvious based on post game comments the players are questioning the same things the Huddle is. There is still time to salvage the season so keep the faith but yes I would be questioning if the coaching staff has somehow forgot how to put the team in the best position to win games. [Edit after the GM firing -- I view this as a game day planning issue and not a GM issue. Will leave the GM discussion to the other threads].

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
