Don’t doubt Dan Morgan!!!! He knew what he was doing!! Robbed the Ravens!!

Even if you don’t care for Bryce Young, it’s still good content on what the team needs.

This is an awesome breakdown by PFF of what the Panthers should do in the off season from who to cut, who to keep, cap space, free agent signings, and even including a 4 round mock draft. It's a long watch at 1 hour and 30 mins but they gave very good and detailed analysis of the team from strengths to weaknesses. Quick Summary: -need defense help all over the place. Only players worth keeping is Horn, Brown, and Clowney. They name drop realistic free agents on the D-line like Hoyt, Hurst, maybe Khalil Mack. They love signing safety Hufanga from SF as our enforcer in the back end. -on offense, they think Chris Godwin would be a slam dunk given familiarity with Canales, but think Godwin would command a lot of money. They think it'll take 30+ mill per year to get Higgins and he would likely be overpaid. Pats might sign Higgins at that money. -Draft wise, dream pick would be Mason Graham but given mock sim he went to Pats. So they pick Abdul Carter. These guys do a lot of research on college prospects and utilize PFF grades to see their value. They pick DT in 2nd, LB in 3, WR in 4th, and another DL in 4th. Overall pretty cool analysis and I would not be upset if the off season went like this.

It's an organizational failure. We see the product on the field and if it stinks we think it's the players fault. What we don't see is the politics behind the scenes. Imagine you work for a sh*tty company, but the public focuses on your personal work and because you don't perform due to lack of resources and guidance, you're judged as a lazy and poor worker.

I love reading up on draft prospects and reviewing mock drafts for fun. From what I gather is that Carter is physically gifted but really raw. Compared to previous drafts, this year's pass rushing class is not really deep. Carter is the best of the rest. Mason Graham seems to have a higher floor and he can also provide pass rush with a stellar run defense game, which we desperately need. I think there are very few blue chip players in this draft.

Everybody will talk about his stats, but they don't realize the clutch throws and situations he was faced with over the past 3-4 weeks. How many crucial 3rd or 4th down throws did he make just to keep the drive alive? He has given the team a chance to tie or win the game in the last 5 mins of each game. If Panthers would have won the game on a 98 yd drive, that would be the stuff of legends! What's most exciting about Bryce's play is that he has been clutch when we needed it, other teammates have failed him with drops, fumbles, missed XP. If he continues to play like this, it's going to be exciting to watch Panthers football again.

The rest of the schedule is very winnable. If we continue to play like how we did against Eagles and Chiefs, we can win out. Cardinals are in a slump, so it ATL. Bucs can be beat again. It will say a lot about this team if we win a few more games.

That's playmaker Bryce!

I want Jameis's pregame and post game speeches, but Bryce when the game starts. Jameis is such a clown with his comments that I find it entertaining. Eat that W!!

Can anyone tell me that she has actually made a difference for the Panthers? Or is she still a yes woMAN to Tepper?

What changed during his benching? He grew 2 more inches duh!! In all seriousness, we gave him a lot of bashing for his physical limitations, but it has way more to do with his confidence.

He is a diva, even with Baltimore winning, he will cry and pout and ask to be traded. He cares about his numbers and stats for his next contract. Ironically, his best chance to showcase his ability was with us, now he is just an afterthought.

Shaq has been injury prone and not played up to his contract, Shaq should be cut loose. Where has Moton's play dropped off? O-line men have longer careers compared to linebackers. Everybody is a risk for injury, look at Derrick Brown after giving him all that money, so we shouldn't extend Brown because he might get injured?

Moton has been one of our most consistent players through all of the bad times. He is a professional and knows how to take care of business, I would try to extend him and keep him for the consistency and leadership. If any player deserves it, it's Moton.

I like that Dan Morgan has been very active on a weekly basis with practice squad players and waivers. I don't remember the Panthers being this active during the season in the past. I do believe that Dan is actively churning the roster at every possible opportunity. I don't expect these guys to make a difference, but at least he is trying.
