When the season began ...

They said without KB we had no offense 

27 points in 11 straight games .... 5th longest since the merger.

I gotya but Im just gonna say that there a lot of people on this website, who I will hesitate to call fans, that also thought we were done. After hearing the whining year in and year out for a new receiver, its gets tiring telling them that it doesnt matter that much. They were certain that the missing piece to Steve Smith was . . . another receiver. lol, not, you know, a guy that can throw him the ball, maybe.

 

Will it sink in now?

 

NOPE! They have already been people asking for which receiver we will get next year around the local radio clown shows. Tune in to WFNZ for more thought provoking radio including "DOES CAM DANCE TOO MUCH?" and . . . . . . "Is it ok to be confident?". Ive never seen a large population of men become such effeminate pansies.

I sure as hell didn't think we'd be the #1 offense this time of the season without KB.  If you'd have told me that before the season started I'd have thought you were smoking crack.

[therealmjl]

I didn't even think we would have a top 5 offense WITH KB.

 

this run is crazy

I have been critical of Cam in the past. Been called a racist on this site because of my username for doing it. All I was doing was voicing what I saw on the field.

Our improvement this year on O is 20% better line play, 20% a healthy J Stew/Tolbert and 60% improvement in Cam Newtons game. When was the last time you saw a throw sail over the head of a receiver like we have in years past? Cam has evolved into a legitimate MVP level QB. You could see it start to happen in 2013. Injury slowed it in 2014 but the guy has become what we hoped for in 2015.

I cannot remember a single int this year that was just a bad high throw from Cam. Bad decisions, sure. Bouncing off receivers' hands, too many. But high throws that sail over the receiver into the waiting arms of the defense? not one. At least that I can remember.

Panthers = the greatest show on Purrth

Me either. It was so prevalent last year Igo was posting threads with pictures of Cams footwork.

Nobody on this board thought we would even have a top half offense.  Neither did the media or any objective observer outside the organization.  I thought we could be competitive with our defense, but I don't think anyone could have seen this coming.  

And the scary thing is that the offense continues to get better, and the defense is playing at a dominant level again.  Yesterday was sobering b/c of the injury scares, and losing Benwikere concerns me (especially if we play AZ), but this team truly has the make-up to win the Super Bowl this year.

The playoffs are going to be a lot of fun.  This season has been incredible.

I'll never forget sitting in the press box just before the Patriots preseason game, Sal Paolantonio walks in with all the local Panther beat writers around and proclaims "How many games the Panthers gonna win this year, SIX?! Gonna be tough to win if you can't score more than 16 points a game!".

Good call Sal.

I agree with you In part, but I wouId say that a lot of what people are callIng Improvement on his part Is actually what happens when he's not running for his proverbial life.

I like it but since we are one of the few that still plays on actual grass we can just say Earth.

[Mr. Scot]

I'm betting a lot of folks would not like to see those preseason - or even early season - threads bumped.

Heck, there were people ready to jump off a bridge on the first day of free agency because we didn't make any big flashy moves like other teams.
