A little love for the Panthers

One small mention in Barnwell's grantland article:

That would seem to suggest that the Seahawks should be comfortable favorites in this game; with that being said, that’s not really the case. I would be lying if I didn’t say that it feels like the 49ers are playing their best football of the season, and while that’s usually just nonsense, San Francisco is on an eight-game winning streak that has seen it welcome key contributors like Michael Crabtree and Aldon Smith back into the fold. It just outmuscled the 12-4 Panthers in Carolina in what was probably the team’s most impressive win of the year.

I wouldn't say it was very impressive... unless they've had a really unimpressive season. They just shut down our already anemic offense; our defense can only do so much. Nice to see the love though.

They were anemic overall but we were moving the ball at will on them in that first half, just couldn't punch it in when it mattered

Since I truly believe Cam is the Michael Jordan of football (and we also have the best MLB in the game at age 22), I truly believe the next 12-15 years will be the best dynasty the salary cap era has ever and will ever see.

 

Optimism at it's finest. While I hope everything you say is true, I would be ecstatic to accomplish half of what the Patriots have accomplished in the last 15 years.

It's a start. But while the word "unstoppable" is often bantered about in generic hyperbole, it will soon rear itself on the big screen when our 24 year old two time pro bowl qb actually has weapons around him and additional experience (this year is only the 4th year he's played of big time college or NFL football). The average age of Super Bowl winning QBs is 30 and it took Michael 7 years to win his first. Records were made to be broken, and, lucky us, we get to enjoy in the Blessed Queen City of Charlotte, NC. The first five time Super Bowl winning QB? While every year is it's own unique odyssey and we haven't even won our first yet, I truly believe it.

Hell, I would be happy with just one.

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
