S Fowler Coker in, Legette out as wr2
frankw replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
Coker has certainly earned it. Good for him. -
As has been stated before. There are people who have high standards for every other position but the most important one on the field.

Surprise! Wait… Surprise Again! Kon Looks Really Good!

Collin Sexton came off the bench and went to work for the Hornets tonight. Lost by 1 point on a last second three pointer. -
"Speculation around the league" that we've reached out to John Harbaugh
frankw replied to t96's topic in Carolina Panthers
Ultimately while he is a great coach who could help in the short term it's a pipe dream. Even if things fell into place and he took a year off and we somehow talked him into it the job in 2027 he would be pushing 65. The Seahawks already have a younger up and coming version of him and they are hitting their stride. At the end of the day we need to be building for 10 years from now. -
Cam Newton WILL BE the honorary keep pounding drummer Saturday
frankw replied to Jackson113.2's topic in Carolina Panthers
Love to see it. Now we just hope to see the team show up and make everyone proud on what will surely be a rare and special day. -
Comparing TMac to Adam Thielen in order to cape for an oft injured overpaid running back? Never change huddle.

If people are going to be up in arms over a what amounts to nothing more than a fantasy poll then the options could use some work. No competition in 2026 for the QB who is the third highest paid player on the roster and has started the first three consecutive years of his career playing poorly at best is a nonstarter for a lot of people and if anyone needs that explained to them maybe they should go back and give themselves a refresher course on the history of this franchise. As far as the other option even if we do lose against the Rams the team is still going to pick up Bryce's 5th let's be real. And even then it still isn't a given we will see legitimate competition. When it comes to winning the division and being in the playoffs I do think the majority of Panthers fans are happy about it and would be happy to see us finally win another playoff game but unfortunately you can't just put aside the elephant in the room and the baggage that comes with it. And dismissing these concerns as just people not being real fans or whatever cringy variation of labels being applied is only carrying water for the Tepper's. Such is only going to illicit eye rolls.

Congrats to the young man. If he can do this with a limited QB what can he do with someone even better? Whatever the future holds at least we know we have WR1.
-
You're not clear on the basic point that he is now a 4 year starter and we need to stop treating him like he's still a rookie? Cool won't quote you any further enjoy your day.

The huddle has been over the good and bad of Canales. He's done his own harm in this area as I just mentioned. But aside from his ridiculous insistence on splitting carries in the midst of Dowdle running the ball at a historic pace there hasn't been anything overly egregious as of late. Our OL has been banged up yes but they've still been effective all things considered. These opposing defenses all saw the same game we did where Bryce Young threw the ball 24 times for a total of 54 yards. Things like that don't just happen if defenses aren't playing the Panthers to stop the run and forcing Bryce to beat them with his arm.

I share your hope that they feel that way. But we just don't know. The unfortunate reality with Bryce Young is that he is now officially in year 4 as an NFL starter and we are still at a place where week to week we basically toss out all the bad every time he shows any minimal semblance of what could be perceived to be good even if it's something bare minimum that 31 other starters are supposed to be capable of. I've never seen this for another QB. Certainly never seen it for a Panthers QB. I just cannot say with confidence at this juncture that our decision makers are going to approach further evaluation of Bryce Young going forward with the emotional attachment to the investment removed from the equation. We've seemed to have high standards for every other position on the field for going on 3 years now. I'll believe that's actually changed when I see it in action with my own eyes.

Certainly I would like to retain his services but maybe he's been anointed to a pedestal he doesn't quite deserve here in such a short time. He was heavily involved in the 2024 draft class was he not? The 2025 class has been much much better in comparison but still it's not as if things have been going perfectly from top to bottom. If this franchise and specifically Dan Morgan cannot survive losing Tillis then we're doomed regardless.

Canales has definitely made some baffling decisions with the backfield but as far as abandoning the run game I cannot take anyone seriously throwing out that criticism while ignoring the albatross that is Bryce Young. We have been struggling to run the ball largely because defenses have the tape on us from earlier in the season and until Bryce Young can move the ball through the air more than 5 yards at a time and stop constantly bailing on pockets they will continue to play us the same way. Throwing at or behind the line of scrimmage late in games is not going to help establish the run game. It only makes defenses jobs easier.
