Yes I know its pre season but look in between the lines. Despite the pick 6, Cam looks a lot more improved, his pocket presence and accuracy. And how about that O line? Pass protection looked very promising, run blocking still needs work. Overall the energy from the offense and the chemistry looked great, i like the more traditional look on offense. Ron looks like a completely different coach out there.

The D is looking as good as ever, Star eating two blockers, Luke is everywhere. Our DEs are looking as good as ever. I know its pre season, but im getting a good vibe.

You forgot to mention Julius Peppers wasn't playing. If it was a real game, #90 would've blown past our o-line faster than Taco Bell exiting your ass.

Depends on which Julius Peppers was showing up that night.  The dominant JP or the JP that you have to check replays to see if he was playing.

Exactly.  Peppers is a dominant force when he wants to be, but how many times did we watch him get completely nullified by guys no better than Byron Bell while #90 was a Panther?  He's a helluva player, but he could've been one of the GOATs.

Cam's accuracy, footwork and poise appeared better (despite the pick 6). I'm positive Cam forgot all about it 5 minutes later however.

I doubt he forgot about it. Cam is a perfectionist so I'm sure it was eating at him. Especially because that was his last serious. Which I think it was good they ended him on that. Let it stew and that'll make him that much more better on the next go around.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
