Myths about Panthers players and coaches that were busted on Sunday.

There were a number of myths about our team and coaches that were dispelled in this game.

Obviously the whole Rivera can't coach the team to a win in a close game is gone and that Shula can't call plays including gadget and trick plays is no longer germaine.  But there were a number of other myths were busted.  

 

Cam led the team to a 4th quarter score to come from behind and  propel the team to a victory which supposedly he couldn't do.  

 

The defense held a lead late and dominated much like our teams of 2005 and 1996.  

Cam threw a pick and was not very good throughout and we still won.  

Williams is over the hill and can't still deliver the big run and we don't need him.  

Smith can't be a factor as a number 1 receiver (even when he drops a few).

 

And how bout the coaches can't make halftime adjustments and in-game adjustments.  What a turnaround from the first to the second half on defense and offense.  If the receivers had caught the ball better, it wouldn't have been close. Still this was the most dominating I have seen this defense since the Tampa game in 2008.

 

Other myths??

cam said after the game that the carolina panthers "needed to win a game like this."

 

that's because historically we've lost in almost every one of those descriptive categories in football games. this time we overcame all of them at once, on the road, in spite of awful-ass refereeing, and walked out with a win.

 

i'd say that corner has been turned for a while now and we're seeing the results of it.

Shula called a very up and down game and we scored 10 points....should not be singing his praises too much....

 

And yes I know how 'good' the 9ers defense is but I personally think they are very overrated....the Colts and Hawks plastered them for example.

 

Are we really content with only putting up points vs terrible defenses?

when we have an oline like the colts and hawks then we can expect to score more than 10 points on one of the leagues best defenses

You clearly don't watch much football other than the Panthers.

 

Specifically go back and watch the Rams v the Seahawks game....then get back to me on the Oline issues.

 

 

Actually you can remember our own game against them where Wilson was running around like a chicken with his head cut off.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
