It's a sad state of affairs when you feel it necessary to make an apologetic thread about being optimistic about a QB we traded for lol. You weren't wrong for being optimistic, there's no shame in that. My default state is one of cautious optimism because the alternative is a pretty depressing way to live your life. Never let the Huddle make you feel bad or guilty for being optimistic about the team you're a fan of. Just remember some of the people who were right all along about Darnold are the same people who also suggested things like: you're a stupid homer if you think we'll even potentially have a Top 10 defense this year, that Shaq Thompson is a JAG who we never should have extended, Donte Jackson is a JAG who is not a willing tackler, Phil Snow would be a disastrous hire because he was the LB coach for the 0-16 Detroit Lions, etc. There is never a shortage of bad takes on the Huddle from all sides of the aisle. You kinda just shrug your shoulders and move on.

"Robby Sucks" and "It's all the OL's fault" folks
MasterAwesome replied to Proudiddy's topic in Carolina Panthers
FTFY. Lol Darnold is bad but so is PJ. It’s funny that you’re hyper focusing on the QB situation and completely neglected to mention that one dude who’s back in the lineup today and accounted for 90+ rush yards and 130+ scrimmage yards (including 7 catches) in the first half. Let’s not act like Brady and the o-line are completely vindicated after one mediocre half by PJ Walker. Edit: ok my bad I forgot CMC technically came back last week lol but still he’s mostly carrying the offense today (also huge shoutout to Cam for the boost to our red zone offense). Still an OC/o-line/WRs best friend. -
CAM NEWTON IS NOT THE ANSWER. THIS IS A MISTAKE.
MasterAwesome replied to kungfoodude's topic in Carolina Panthers
It's poetic irony how the once proud faction of Huddle "realists" have now become what they hate the most: *gasp* Sunshine Pumpers!!!! I mean Cam is obviously not the answer...but hell I am just hoping for some exciting football which we have been sorely lacking for several consecutive weeks. -
I don’t know what Brady has done in the NFL to warrant the charitable kiddie gloves from you and others. Basically any questionable play call is a product of his crappy quarterback so he’s virtually immune from criticism. The irony is that it’s the same logic people use who say Darnold is absolved of criticism because of his crappy o-line, which you vehemently argue against. For the record, I’m opposed to both of those silly arguments and think there’s plenty of blame to go around in this offense.

There were these threads about Mike Davis last year too... I guess CMC has been injured too often the past season and a half that people forget how special he really is.
-
He also wanted us to draft Justin Fields who looks awful, so we’ll call it a wash.

I have barely skimmed this site in the last 24 hours cause I truly think the Tinderbox is the more emotionally stable forum than the main Panthers' forum at this point...so maybe I've just overlooked all these Darnold fanboys. Are "Darnold fanboys" simply people who say he is only part of the problem rather than the sole problem? Or are there actually people who say he is flawless and that this season is everyone's fault except his? Personally I think our o-line is far and away the biggest problem for our offense...followed by Darnold's play and Brady's playcalling being neck-and-neck for the other culprits to our offensive woes. Is that an unreasonable assessment? I feel like 98% of the board would agree with that...

Panthers Week 5 Bold Predictions
MasterAwesome replied to CarolinaLivin's topic in Carolina Panthers
Psh, they call these *bold* predictions? The DJ Moore one is probably the "boldest" among them, but predicting that our #1 receiver (who is having a dominant year and is receiving the lion's share of targets from Darnold) is going to put up huge numbers still ain't exactly bold. The Chuba one is even a little disrespectful to consider it bold to predict that Chuba has a "modest" (their word) 80 yards and 1 TD. These all seem more like statistical likelihoods than bold predictions. -
Hurts to Ertz is the new (wannabe*) Darnold to Arnold...R.I.P. Hopefully we do a better job slowing down their TEs than we did with Schultz in Dallas last week.

This is reading a little like fanfic...he didn't get stuck in the condo's dryer, did he?

"a team that, while is 3-0, isn’t in the same class"
MasterAwesome replied to rayzor's topic in Carolina Panthers
Hey at least she was up front about her red flag(s) on her profile. Better than being a few dates in before finding out she’s…a Cowboys fan. -
This kinda feels like me filling out my March Madness bracket when I don't watch a lick of college basketball but still feel the need to pick some obligatory upsets. I mean I get that picking US would technically be the upset if we're going off of Vegas odds, but these picks are really lopsided when in reality it should probably be fairly close to a 50/50 toss-up on paper.

Lol @ Gregory Randy. I guess that’s what happens when you’re cursed with two first names.

And those were all the same experts who, after we destroyed them, said "Well of course they won! Saints were down 827 starters".

My analysis of C.J. Henderson and body language.
MasterAwesome replied to Ivan The Awesome's topic in Carolina Panthers
If he's an introvert who just wants to be left alone, then the good news is that for 4 quarters every Sunday...him and his receiver will be left alone on CJ Island -
Is this the best Panthers pass rush in franchise history?
MasterAwesome replied to Zod's topic in Carolina Panthers
Best pass rush in NFL history is more accurate! #ProudHomer -
That sucks…so we’re not gonna get a shot at all those All-Pro o-linemen that teams are gonna cut mid-season

I think there's definitely some truth to this. How many sacks have we gotten where someone comes through completely unblocked? Hell, for how good Brian Burns is, I'm fairly sure all 3 of his sacks were unblocked. As someone else mentioned, props to Snow's scheme in confusing the opposing offense.

Torn Achilles for Mack last year: CMC a couple weeks away from returning: 4th round pick (Hubbard) looked improved in the second half against the Texans: Meh...I get the apprehension about our running game with CMC out, but this would be somewhat of a panic-trade. CMC should be back soon and we drafted a talented RB who deserves some playing time to see what he's got. Besides, if Mack is seeking a trade for "opportunity elsewhere"...then this ain't the place for him considering CMC gets like 47 touches a game when he's on the field.

Why do we keep trading our FA acquisitions?
MasterAwesome replied to BurnNChinn's topic in Carolina Panthers
We have what looks to be the most dominant defense in the league through 3 weeks and you're complaining that we traded away some bum linebacker who never made it onto the field? Good riddance...I'd say we're doing okay without him. Who cares? -
There’s only one person who can help CJ…
