I know some of you look down on this, but I'd rather have a great draft pick than reel off 4-5 meaningless wins at the end of the year, as is common under this regime. 

With you 100%. Top 5 pick would be fantastic. Not to mention 99s contract is getting cheaper weekly.

We'll be in competition with the Browns for the #1 overall and 7-9 means nothing this year with the Cons being good. SO yea winning means poo atm quite frankly. And maybe losing badly will cause change so if that helps get rid of some fat I'm gtg with that.

Totally disagree. All we are promised is today, so I want to see my team win as many games as they can. Winning those 5 "meaningless games" will be 5 joyful Sundays where I'll not be in a bad mood for the next week. I'll take them! I love to win.
Also, I don't trust Gettleman to capitalize on a top draft pick.

It's always too early. Unless you need a QB there is no evidence to support that tanking helps anything.

That being said i've lost all hopes of us doing anything this season. Our deficiencies on defense are simply too big to overcome. Gettleman should face heavy questioning for this historic dismantling of a 15-1 team.

Atlanta lost so if we had a chance coming into today then we still have the same chance. Wouldn't mail it in yet


Im frustrated just like everyone else but it's nut over yet. Yes the secondary is plain out horrendous but things can change. I didn't think we win the division but I am still hoping for a wildcard

Yes. I will never root to lose. I don't want a team playing to lose for draft position. Plus, we have competitive Cam. Cam will never play to lose a game. They'd have to put him on IR and let DA handle it. 

this, plus other players who might be interested in joining the Panthers don't want to play for a team that purposefully tanks. You play to win for yourselves, you play to win for the fans, you play to win for pride, you play to win for next year's contract, you play to win because That's Your Job.

Do you have any admiration or respect for the players on the team?

You realize that THEY don't want to lose, right?

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
