Really hard being a Panthers fan today.

[stirs]

Hard for a lot of fans it seems who don't understand football, pandemic, rebuild, new coach, new system, no preseason and such.

You will be okay

Half you Trevor mouth breathers thought this game would be 35-17.

We aren’t as far away as you think.

Today was a 50/50 game between two bad teams. We lost because we were the dumber team. Dumb critical calls = L.

Okay.. 2 bad teams where 1 team is a year ahead of a rebuild.. It truly wasn't a 50/50 game Especially when a new coaching staff has no offseason..

[Pimpdaddy]

Rookie coaching staff...give them a break. plus 23 new guys on the team...should have won today...but oh well..im ok with suckin this year..

It could've been worse, we could have Fitz as our QB.

We are further away than you think. The Raiders are probably a 5-11 team this year. A moral victory would have been losing 34-30 to the Saints or 49ers

No it’s not. Everyone pegged that the raiders would put 35 and we wouldn’t score 14. We fix this defense and we are 2013. 
 

For an entire rookie nfl coaching staff to give Grudens staff a fit is a win.

only thing that doesn’t explain away....was Joe Brady being garbage with the game on the line.   That wasn’t a covid offseason.  That wasn’t new players.  That was an OC botching it by overthinking. 

HS, college or pros.  That was a bad call. 

Didn't Alex make a one yard first down the previous quarter? So the call didn't come out of thin air.

I expected a loss, but the way it ended was a kick in the nads. Four consecutive run plays during a 2-minute drill?

With our veteran QB I felt it was a 50/50 game, but that's just a gut feeling opinion not anything backed by fact or crunching numbers. I can see where you disagree and if you put it at 60/40 I wouldn't be surprised.

Our defense sucks but it’s also sucked in 2011.

This really isn't the season to play tight and scare. For goodness sake it's year one of the biggest rebuild we've ever had. Unclinch.

No one said we’d only score 14. There were countless threads about how good this offense would be with Joe Brady running things. And any offense with McCaffrey is getting at least 1-2 TDs from him a game. The offense looked as expected going against a very bad defense, maybe the only defense as bad as the Panthers.
