This is about as unhappy as I've ever been about a win

The short yardage play calling just fuging sucks, especially near the goal line. It's like we're afraid to punch the ball in, or maybe Norv just doesn't have faith in the O-line. We play a tad too conservatively with a relatively small lead & are obviously afraid for Allen to throw the ball, and with Allen putting the ball on the field & doing his hurt-Cam impression with the over and under-throws, Norv (Ron) might have a point. 

As much as we were exploiting CMC (to the sidelines in crunch time), it seems like we would have used the run to set up some passes down the field, but those plays just didn't really materialize. Moreover, I would have liked to see more quick slants.

After the first series, I was like Norv is finally opening up the offense, and then we commenced to running CMC into the ground, and I can tell you from watching football for 40+ years, that it's not sustainable. It's a telltale sign that he cramped up & Bonnafon actually came in with fresh legs and made JAX pay.

The pass defense was very shaky, but I guess I'll give them a little bit of a pass. Chark is the real deal, and so is Minshew! He really outplayed Allen on everything except the scoreboard. 

We've got to do better, especially with the offensive play calling. 

This is a game that I feel lucky to have won, and in my opinion it shouldn't have been this way.

Oh, yeah, just when I praised Slye...Tighten up!

We're 3-2 with a back-up QB.

Did everyone expect every win to look perfect in this situation?

I get your frustration, but I'm hype as hell.  We were 0-2 with our franchise QB ruled out for the foreseeable future.  This is so much better than what I expected.

Worst thing for me was not kicking a FG when we could have gone up 7 and not give the jags so much hope to come back. It was a stupid momentum call to go for it when we were already up 4 points. Made no sense and if Bonnafon wasn’t a stud back up we probably would have lost this game.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.

      In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
