Frank Reich has NO EXCUSES… playoffs or bust in 3 seasons

Last years team has been blown up. This team will be completely different as it will consist of a lot new players in starting roles. They have to install a new scheme and philosophy on both offense and defense in about 4 months.  The coaches are 99% all new and a lot of them have never worked together before. On top of that they are putting their hopes in a rookie qb that they hope they can get ready by game 1.  Sounds like we should expect the playoffs at least.

All of this^^^sounds an awful lot like teaching, learning, physical workouts, practices, competition, cooperation and coordination. 

Just way too complex in this age of instant gratification. 

Don't tell me the truth. 

Tell me what I want to hear!

Who are you trying to kid?  It's not even close to reasonable.

5 games, 5 Super Bowls!

Anything less should result in a house cleaning at Panthers HQ by the end of this year!

That reminds me of Jerome Bettis' famous stat line...

5 carries, -1 yards, 3 touchdowns 😄

Or…

[hair on fire] “It’s five days into free agency and we haven’t signed a consensus all star WR1 yet.  What is wrong with Fitterer, can’t he see that we are doomed without one?”

Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
