I thought Sam Darold would be a good QB.

I assumed his play in NY was mostly a function of the horrible Jets organization - which has been a disaster for at least the last 20 years (and maybe since Joe Namath).  A guy like Darnold with his size, talent & experience would surely thrive in a new environment at Carolina with its good coaching (!!) and surrounded by playmakers (which lasted all of 3 games).  

I was sadly proven very wrong.  I don't even view Darnold as a capable backup QB right now.  He's that awful. 

This is me 100%, no need to write it again.

I never believed in this year or the moves we made this offseason. The Darnold trade set the pace and I fugging melted down then. I'm glad I got it out of the way.

I was wrong about last year, I said we had a staff that could coach up players. That was pure fantasy. This staff is terrible outside of our D.

I didn't think our O-line would be good, but I didn't' expect this bad.  A lot of our line are the same guys as last year, short Okung who didn't play much, and we added two draft picks.

Last years O-line was a middle 1/3 unit, I was expecting the same, possible lower middle 1/3.  Between CMC being back and our quick passing style I didn't' expect us to be this bad.  

I tend to not think in rankings in terms of 1-32, impossible to really separate teams that closely.  Whether you are the 22 or 25 worst o-line you are bad.

I think more of top 1/3 (think top 10), bottom 1/3 (think bottom 10), middle 1/3 (everyone else).

I was right on a lot, so I honestly don’t know where I was majorly wrong on anything, maybe thinking we needed to draft Parsons, but I said that if we had drafted anyone on defense it should have been Parsons so that’s not wrong either…

still think Parsons would have been better than Horn overall.

Will all of Justin's little Fielders please stand up.

Ok.. I admit, I thought it was a terrible idea not to draft a QB.

You think you were wrong aboht this? Fields is still a question but you’d honestly prefer what we have now over mac Jones?

    • 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.
    • 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. 
    • 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.
