Stars Aligned for O'Thirteen?

Recommended Posts

Ten years since the Super Bowl appearance. Roughly the same schedule we had in 2005 when we went to NFC title game. Do the stars align?

How we perform in 2013 depends more on how we conduct ourselves in this offseason than probably any offseason we've had.

There are a few really tricky things we have to navigate this year (management changes, what happens with the coach, how we handle our salary cap...). If they are handled well and promptly we have the pieces to do very well in 2013. If we pussyfoot around, fail to commit, or make terrible decisions we're in for another long year next year.

I'm anxious...not in the Christmas morning way but in the something really bad might just happen way.

Please, then give us your scenario if Rivera is let go.

Tired of people just saying fire Rivera without a real thought out plan otherwise.

Keepinh Rivera just because you're scared of the unknown is no excuse, niether is settling.

Out of the other teams firing a HC next year, you don't see anyone taking a route better than Rivera? I am noy saying I know what to do next, what I said comes from what I see, not because I think I know better about what should happen, and what I saw was two horrible seasons.

Chud or Rivera has to go, I just can't see having a good year next year, whike keeping them both.

Also, I think the new GM is important in this process and those who want to keep Rivera seems to disregard that.

I don't know but it makes sense.

In 2004 we had big expectations only to start the season 1-7. But we finished strong and won 6 of our last 8 to finish 7-9. The nest year we went 11-5 and played in the NFC Championship game.

There are a lot of similarities to 2004 and 2012. Including losing 5 games by 6 points or less.

    • The same folks crying about the OL right now were crying about it in 2023 too. We have tied up over 100 million dollars in two interior olinemen alone and we have Taylor Moton inked to a recent extension. We've invested multiple first and second round picks in the offense. We hired an offensive minded head coach. This is an offensive team. The offense needs to produce or people need to be replaced.
    • This is the same place that has ridiculed and blasted Caleb Williams at every opportunity he has his team sitting at 10-4 in the same NFC that the Panthers are competing in. And their division in the NFC North is as or more competitive as our division. Yet from the same people who have very high standards for Williams we get every excuse imaginable for the smallest starting QB in the league even when he and his team continue to disappoint when the pressure is on. You lot aren't any less inconsistent than anyone else.
    • The Panthers are 9th in cap spent on offense this year.  However next season is already a different story  The Panthers as it stands right now will be 18th in cap spent on offense and 8th in cap spent on defense  The Panthers are currently set to spend more on defense next year than they are on offense this season Guys like Jaycee and Moehrig cap numbers take a big jump. Wharton has a massive cap hit   Jaycee Moehrig and Wharton in 2025 The same 3 in 2026 So this same defense as it stands right now will cost more in 2026 than this offense does right now… Got anything else you want to try?
