  1. I almost admire the level of commitment. But it would make more sense for someone to be that way for a player who has actually proven something. Anything. Even against inferior competition. We can't hang with the rebuilding Falcons or Saints and we are barely holding on at home against the 0-3 Vikings who entering this game were in the bottom of the league in many areas defensively. 75 yards passing lol.
  2. These concerns were discussed before the draft but shouted down.
  3. @AceBoogie I see you lurking pooing posts again If only that would make our #1 pick look like a legit QB.. And Stroud still looking good. You guys need to stop trying to coddle this kid and RAISE your expectations.
  4. Pretty much anyone involved with the assembling of this offense needs to have their employment terminated. Fitterer and Reich can both go. Make Evero or Brown the interim. This is a step back form where we were before we fired Ron. Simply inexcusable.
  5. Sounds like Panthers football we've been awful in the red zone through multiple regimes now.
  6. Wait I thought the Falcons were good? I've been told their defense was too much for any opposing QB to overcome.
  7. Scott Fitterer had an entire offseason to build around the rookie QB he knew they would be making a move for. He needs to have his keys taken away not given the all clear to make even more likely bad trades.
  8. If I want to pay to watch one of our local teams possibly play like crap for a few hours I can pay less and get better seats at a Hornets game. If the Panthers want working class fans to pay to watch this product then hire someone with experience who actually knows how to oversee the assembling of a new front office and tell David Tepper and his wife to go count their money or do anything else other than act like they have any idea how to run a football team.
  9. He's either on drugs or needs to spend some time with a qualified mental health professional. Either way see ya
  10. Definitely haven't seen anyone mention Drew Brees and Bryce Young together here before.
  11. Well folks who don't want to hear about this might as well buckle in because on 10/29 we get the first head to head game between the two in Charlotte. This isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Hopefully they both play well and Bryce Young silences his critics.
  12. Based on the first few games he appeared to have already checked out. Anything is possible but it just doesn't look like he wants to be great or even good at his position. For all the times we said DJ Moore looked like his head wasn't in it sometimes he was an All-Pro compared to TMJ and he produced with some abysmal QB's and OC's.
  13. Even if we lose just look competent putting up a real fight ie like an actual passing offense. These Bryce Young arguments are only going to get more heated otherwise. We really need something anything to feel positive about especially at home where we have been abysmal the last few years.
  14. What on earth do you get out of randomly posting our best players worst moments this? Would you post gifs of Luke Kuechly crying from his concussion? There's being disappointed with a loss and then there's being a garden tool. You should be able to figure out which one you fall in line with.
  15. The contract happening after the major injury didn't make sense and makes less sense now. I would have rather seen that money go to the offense. In general we still have shown a tendency to be sentimental with guys we drafted instead of moving on when it's best for the team. Sound familiar? Jackson Thomas and yes even Thompson fit that bill. We haven't moved on from these players because Fitterer has been largely inept at drafting and his free agent acquisitions aside from Corbett and Luvu have been either meh or outright bad.
  16. To be clear I expected a likely losing season this year and I also expected the usual rookie gaffes from Bryce like turning the ball over trying to force things. I was fine with that knowing we still had an at least halfway decent oline and group of weapons and a very solid staff with years of accumulative knowledge around him to develop with in the meantime. Where this all got off course in my view is when we saw the struggles in preseason that have since translated to the regular season and have shown little signs of moving in the right direction. It's definitely something that gives me familiar concern that I saw in both our previous coaching regimes. When pairing this with what we gave up in the trade it makes for even higher stakes. I just want this team to get to playing intelligent and better coached football because that hasn't happened much at all. Hopefully Bryce plays this weekend looks better doing so and we can begin to shift the tide back to something resembling respectable Panthers football.
  17. Tepper has to be willing to step aside and let a consultant navigate the process and find the best candidate regardless of how well the hire and Tepper get along. This is a business not a bromance. I do find Dan Morgan in the role to be intriguing but I feel that would be another situation where Tepper would be looming and still trying to steer things his own way because it would be Dan's first time in the gig.
  18. It's getting to that point. No back to back winning seasons but at least the highs were a fun ride. So far there has been none of that with Tepper. Firing Rivera wasn't even the wrong decision. It was placing himself at the head of the table in the coaching search with Marty Hurney riding shotgun as his yes man instead of hiring real football minds to navigate the process. Now worse yet he has doubled down and entrenched his wife within the ranks.
  19. If you agree that Darnold and Allen's first games where they looked good were ultimately a mirage then why are we hoping Bryce Young suddenly clicks against lesser competition? We've already seen that story play out just as you stated. It sounds to me like lowering the bar which is going backwards from where we were even before Cam got here. Sad state of affairs.
  20. We're still leaning on Hurney's old first rounders. I can't honestly name a player Fitterer has drafted that we simply could not do without. Horn is the only one under consideration but availability makes that moot.
