What we are facing now is child's play compared to last season.

If there is one thing about this Panthers squad it is that we are battle tested. While yes, KB is a big loss no doubt about it and our WR situation is a mess, I guarantee there isnt a single person that would trade this year's situation for this last year's situation. Lets take a trip down memory lane.

Offseason- Out of nowhere Cam has ankle surgery and misses OTAs. Meanwhile, Smitty gets cut and becomes a huge distraction trash talking this team and to add insult, we have to play against him. Ginn goes to the Cardinals, we now have Bersin returning punts (I gag just thinking about his atrocious punt return skills.) 

Preseason- Cam injures his ribs in the 3rd pre season game, missing even more practice time and missing the week 1 opener.

Greg Hardy- Our stud, all pro, double digit sack cornerstone player not only goes out for the season after week 1, his whole situation becomes a huge distraction.. Players, Gettleman and Rivera do nothing but get asked question after question about Hardy, about domestic abuse, about their stance on domestic abuse and its a neverending story that goes on and on.

Byron Bell- Umm yea, he was our starting LT last year, enough said there.

Cam's accident- Cam then gets in a car accident, breaks his back and misses another game. So basicially our franchise QB has a bad ankle, cracked ribs and a broken back all happen in the same season.

Ron Rivera's house burns down- Yep, we all know the story by now. Rivera's house burns just weeks before our playoff match up against the Cards.

Despite ALL of this, we go 7-8-1, win the NFCs, get a home playoff game and advance to the next round to face the Seahawks.

This year?! One of our core players gets injured, please.. This is child's play, we got this.

To be fair, you're comparing what has happened prior to this season even starting, with EVERYTHING that happened over the course of the entire previous season. Of course there's gonna be more hardships in comparison thus far...it's very possible we'll see more obstacles over the course of this season than just the KB injury.
