Should we be worried?

I can't help but feel trepidation after watching the last couple of preseason games - particularly on the offense. Yes I know they are preseason. Yes I know we aren't opening the playbook. But I have to say the offense looks way behind just like last preseason and I'm afraid we're going to get off to that same, slow start we do every year under Rivera. I'm especially concerned about Cam's play. Similar high passes sailing over receivers heads and pocket jitters. It's year 3 now. Shouldn't he be more accurate by now and have better pocket presence???? Sure I know the offensive line isn't top notch which brings up another point - we are just an injury or two away from having a complete disaster to our offensive line. I'll stay positive and hope that Cam and crew get their game face on at the start of the regular season. I just hope we don't start out like we've done the last few years. Rivera won't make it out of week 4 if that happens...

yes. the panthers are going to go 0-16. ron rivera will turn into a cyborg and blow up the stadium with lasers from his dick. charlotte will fall into a bottomless black hole and north carolina will literally explode into a greasy fireball of bojangles and ruined dreams. we are all going to die. prepare yourself.

I really think you are exaggerating.

I know people are going to blow up on you but I actually agree...they didnt look good.  I know the arguments but a lot of other teams looked much better with their starting squad.  Might not mean anything, but it doesnt change the fact that they didnt look that good.

This is the greatest post for preseason "chicken littles" that I have ever seen.  Dank-U mista.  Thank you!

you can worry all you want, but the fact is, it is pointless because you have no say or control in what happens.  we can only go along for the ride.  i tend to limit my worries to personal life where i at least have some input or control.

 

i like rivera okay, but i dont like the fact the new GM had no say in the coach.  that is what bugged me more than anything this offseason.

Knew I was going to flamed for starting this... OK I'll say it - I have no confidence we are going to get off to this 'fast start' that everyone is hoping for. I frankly have no confidence in Rivera after seeing the same old crap last couple games training camp. Cam getting picked left and right, overthrowing receivers. Don't have much confidence in him either right now. Cam + Rivera = LOSING GAMES!! Change either one and maybe we can get somewhere but I see a disaster heading our way until then. We are going to effing SUCK! Flame away!!!!

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
