Tepper football ladies and gents. We've looked like this ever since he's gotten here

I've forgotten what a TD looks like

I've never seen an offense go backwards as much as much as the Panthers

Looks like we'll extend that no TDs to 4 games

Man, at least the defense will be exciting this year

Plummer making quicker decisions

Sanders sighting!

And yet again, the Panthers offense doing a good job going backwards lmao

We haven't scored a TD in the last 3 games dating back to last year, and yet with a brand new coaching staff and a 2nd year QB we don't think we need live reps lol

Lame af.  Worst team in the league year over year thinks they don’t need live reps.  Gtfoh

And then they'll use the "rusty" excuse once we lose to the Saints week 1

Every team is playing their starters except for one of worst teams in the League lol.

You can't make this sh*t up.

Wait, if we're scared to even play preseason games, why even practice then? I feel like we lose more players to injury in practice than anything tbh

I can't wait to see how many botched snaps we have week 1 because Bryce hasn't even taken a snap from Corbert in a game scenario yet. Can't wait for this team to blame it on "rust" when we lost to the Saints in the opener. We're like that ugly girl who thinks they're a queen and then wonder why they can't get a man.

Both Bryce and Ickey looking improved and worthy of their draft selection? I am intrigued. Let's increase this sample size and maybe we might actually have something here.

Exactly. String together a couple of regular season games like this and collect some Ws, and maybe the narrative will start to change a lil bit. But until then, I will remain skeptical. Good step in the right direction though. Let's see how we build off of this.

One thing's for sure though, it does seem that Canales has brought a WHOLE different attitude with this team. Definitely feels a lot different from previous years just in terms of attitude and scheme. We shall see.

Since Wilks… was the last time, no need for years, you probably knew already lol

Exactly. So about a decade ago. His little 2nd stint here didn't even give him enough time to implement anything.

Excited to see what the defense does against another O. I'm out on the scoop, is Aaron Rodgers even participating in training camp yet?

HOT TAKE

Bath salts are the answer to all of your ailments

It's kind of hard not to when he's given us nothing to cheer for. All his deep passes have been either underthrown or thrown to the sidelines (just like last year). CBs are undercutting his throws. His velocity on his throws are worrisome. It seems like he's worked on NOTHING during the offseason. How bout just give us a good practice to get hype for, or anything that says "oh, this guy might be something".

And y'all might not like it but the moment we traded a king's ransom for him, he was always going to be judged more intently. It also doesn't help that CJ Stroud is already a top 5 QB in the league. It has just put every Panthers fan in a bad mood.

The dude had an all time inept offensive line.

The dude as a rookie, had an incompetent and non-aligned coaching staff.

The dude has NOTHING for play-makers.

It's not ALL BY.

Our offense only showed out 1.5 times all year, Green Bay and the 1st half of the Miami game.

The coaching staff failed him and the organization last year.  BY took 60+ sacks, only missed one game, never complained.  HE EARNED A PASS FOR LAST SEASON!!!!!

Stop rolling in the negative.  If you love your team root for their success....

This is not aimed solely at the author of the quoted text, but also to those who have just created 10+ pages of negative bitching that the rest of us have had to shift through to find actual content related to the development of OUR team.

Get a grip people.  If you are THAT invested try pickleball.

Sooner or later y'all gonna run out of excuses

Imagine if Cam had gotten all these excuses.... It was always "CAm iS InAccUraTe" or "CAm neEDs tO sTOp SulKING" or "caM NeEdS to plAY BeTTEr" when he had sh*t o-lines and WR's majority of his career here. Y'all know exactly who y'all are too.

That's the whole point of the argument lol!  Were you not following along?  Conservative check down ball vs deeper/risky throws.  One will lead to more interceptions and that might not be a bad thing.  Especially if there is learning and adjustments going on.  I'm all for having the offense take some risks at the risk of more turnovers vs the conversative play we had last year.  

Bro, 10 ints while playing conservative is BAD! My point is he still managed to throw 10 picks and fumble 11 times PLAYING CONSERVATIVE! I can't even imagine once he starts attempting more risky (NFL) throws.

But I will agree with you that at this point, I have no problem going deep more and throwing more risky passes. Can come to a quicker conclusion on whether he's cut out to be an NFL QB or not.

Again this isn't changing the season stats?  10 INTs still equates to 10.  You get that right?  I mean he could have thrown all 10 in one games and 0 in the rest and the point Ricky was making is still valid.  

10 is 10 not matter how you get there.

Dude threw 10 ints while only averaging 5.5 ypa. Let that sink in.

2 pick sixes in one game to the same defender. We just acting like that never happened?

I mean, he started his career off by throwing 2 picks to Jessie Bates lol

Preseason is for two things:

1. Knocking the rust off for the starters so you don't have to play catch-up week 1.....getting back used to what it felt like to get hit. (There's a reason there was a week 3 rehearsal for the starters when we had 4 preseason games).

2. Evaluating the depth of your team

Come week 1, if you need a half to get back into the swing of things, then you most likely are already down at halftime and gonna lose that game. Starting off the year 0-1 is something we've come accustom to, and it just so happens we are also usually the ones who just lollygag the preseason with no plan in mind.

I cannot friggin WAIT to hear him call the play just before it happens like Romo and Olsen do.

Yep. Just hearing his insight on what he's seeing and looking for before the play is going to be a treat. Hope he gets a good first game to commentate on.

Wow. Actually can't wait to hear him call a game. I think he will be a natural just like Olsen is.
