Lose when it matters, win when it doesn’t

How does winning this week help things moving forward?

It doesn’t. People cling onto “winning matters over everything” mantra regardless of everything. Did we win with Terrace going 7/100 and a TD? No. Did Burns go for 4 sacks and show dominance? No. Did a young rb that won’t be on the free agency pool next offseason pop off? No. This was a stupid “proving point” for those that want wins over anything. Nothing good came of this game. Can’t wait to get Dallas, Green Bay, and Seattle next year instead of Arizona, Chicago, and Washington. But at least they “won”!

We dropped 1 effing spot. 

Yall can talk about everyone else having a loser mindset but many of the posters here are the epitome of a losing mindset.

Absolutely nothing tragic happened today.

We are picking 9th.

Mahomes went 10th. And the examples go on and on and on...

This literally is the epitome of pathetic

I don't get it this Dropping 1 effing spot comments.

Before this game, we were already at 9.

After this game, we are at 9.

 

We didn't drop a spot at all.

I've definitely done some stupid poo, but I've never openly rooted for the New Orleans Saints. Few on this board can also lay claim to that

Guys, the context is the entire season, not just today's game. Today's game just sort of signifies what the Panthers are about.

We were in the playoff race until last week and this week didn't affect draft positioning.

So that makes no sense IMO. We played to win until last week when we had a chance at the playoffs and we won today but it didn't affect where we draft.

I don't understand how anyone with a brain would have done anything differently.

Was Wilks supposed to try lose every game the minute he took over?

Other than just wanting to complain, I don't understand the first thing about this thread

It does if they also consider getting blown out in the playoffs to be meaningless. This was a losing season either way.

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
