New coach almost always means new qb. Maybe not immediately and right off the bat, but no coach is shackling their job security to a qb they didn't select. 

2 receptions for 11 yards will be hell to replace.

A big section of the country is going to get this garbage beamed into their homes today. I think it will be a CBS day instead here.

I have no idea how this guy with such an atrocious record is still regarded as some of draft guru.

Clausen still has a chance at being a really top notch qb at the next level.

We haven't seen it, but it's doubtful we'd be seeing much better from anyone else.

I don't think anyone is doing well. Everyone is underperforming compared to what we believed (at least organizationally) they were capable of.

I think it's becoming evident that Tepper might be the problem as a poo owner to work for. He'll pay well, but then he creates an environment that makes it damn near impossible to excel in.

Agreed. I don't think there is much right with anything having to do with Panthers. Unfortunately, when the last draft pick to work out positively is Brown, then I suppose that's why we get into the situation of hoping things get better some way, any way.

The guy said he thinks Stroud would be playing horribly in this offense.

The scheme and talent level is just bad.

Just pointing out all the things we've already been told. To be fair he has been only 1 of numerous festering problems on the team, as you point out as well.

But the magician, and the maestro, and the super duper processing, and the all pro point guard? Are you saying all those were just words and nothing more??

Keep your head up folks. As terrible as that trade up now appears, at least we dodged the bullet on Watson.

Hey now, the team has come a long way from the game day experience being sitting in the white rocking chairs on the sunny side of the stadium and enjoying sweet tea before the game.

"Bank of American announces Panther fans contest"

Bank of American PR department has teamed up with the Carolina Panthers to conduct a contest at the BofA stadium this Weds 11-15 at 9am. Anyone over 295lbs is eligible to show up and hit a genuine Panther team  blocking sled.......the person who can move it the most distance in a set time period will be selected to a final group of contestants to participate in a "sled off" with the winning contestant starting with the Panther offensive line unit this coming week when they face the Dallas Cowboys Sunday afternoon 11-19 at BoA stadium. 

Panther's front office could not be reached for a comment but word is all contestants will receive a steak and ketchup dinner after the contest concludes. 

 

During some of the bad seasons recently for 1 of our South rivals, there was always talk about having a seat # lottery that the winning fan, if they actually showed up to the game, would get to call a play from the sideline since things were so bad.

I hate 31 other teams, but there are different levels of dislike. There is a fair amount of Jags coverage where I live, as well as Panthers, so by default it's Jags. Could be worse as the Falcons games are carried on the good sports talk radio station.

I HATE seeing underthrown deep balls rewarded with a flag. That's just a trash fuging throw.

The college 15 yard penalty should be the rule. It ends the incentive to fling it deep with the hope being a penalty for the same amount of yards as a reception, but still maintains a costly punishment for the foul.

I doubt McDermott is sent packing. It might be a very interesting December in the AFC if there isn't some separation in that muddled middle.

Buffalo has turned the ball over twice before the halfway mark of the first quarter

Good team but they have a turnover problem, and this might be the year that it costs them a playoff spot.

This gets a little overlooked since we all get hyped up on those training camp heroes. It is slim pickings when the most recent draft pick to positively develop is Brown. I don't know of any other impact players since him.

They got a head start last year. Are you happy with the results?

Dallas will probably rest starters at halftime during our game.

Regarding that Watson trade, it is the money that comes across as out of touch, irresponsible, reprehensible and makes the trade awful. Picks are picks, and aren't a lock to work out favorably, but that dollar cost is something else. Not my money, and I don't care too terribly much about anyone involved though.

The 2010 Panthers are on the list. It is a couple of years out dated now, but might be worth a look for those that wonder where this edition ranks with what may end up being a historic season.

The worst NFL teams from the last 50 years

It’s crazy Cleveland is 6-3 while getting bottom of the league type play from Watson

I think they have the #1 defense in the league. At least that was the ranking a couple of weeks ago. Doubt it has changed too much if any.

I'm getting sick and tired of seeing Mingo Chark and TMJ underperform. Why not give ISM and some other some chances? They're 1-8 what would they have to lose? Do they just not care?

Is there just no point given Bryce /o line can't do well enough to get the ball to them? 

They are just going through the motions at this point. The white flag was waved furiously a while back. Maybe they try for a 65 yard field goal versus Dallas?

Maybe he can send Kamara over to the contractor's house for a visit? Probably clear the whole situation up with a personal visit.

Hackett was terrible, no argument there. However, I think a couple of things have to be factored into his time in Denver. I think he was hired in an attempt to lure Aaron Rodgers into going to Denver. That didn't happen. Adding to that, plan B, Russell Wilson, being god-awful horrible and looking like he has never played the game at times, didn't hep matters any. 

He can't be the 1st as that has already happened. He could be next however.

We still have some chances. We have games with Saints, Falcons and Bucs still to come. None of those teams are very good, but they are better than us. Bucs were a team that I sort of thought we might have a chance to win both, but honestly we don't have the secondary to control that matchup anymore. Beyond those, any win would be a real upset.
