We have no pass rush depth, no linebacker depth and absolutely no corner depth.  I would say that is the epitome of a "razor thin defense".

 

 

It's okay. You can let that fear of the past go. It's a new dawn, it's a new day. Let's see what happens when the actual games start before we downplay our players. 

 

That said. You are one of the most negative posters around. Hard to take your criticisms seriously.

 

Edit to ask: How many of our depth guys can you even name. Let alone make proclamations about their ability.

Never in the history of the Panthers franchise has any preseason game been so overly criticized. 

And there have been worse games. 

I’m not so sure about that. I can’t locate every preseason game in our history..  but none I found , had a more Lackluster offense , and keep a preseason defense on the field so long.. lost by 27.

Yeah, we looked pretty bad.. Thanks goodness it’s preseason.

SMH, you can never address people’s post, just condescending replies. Did we get any pressure on the Jets without Burns? How’s we do without Horn against Tampa in our biggest game in years? How do you think our DL would do without Brown? What if Shaq or Luvu go down at LB? Our D can be good if we stay healthy, but he’s correct that we are not deep behind our marquee guys. Please tell us who the depth guys are that could replace the guys I mentioned.

we should win 7,8 games this year, 9 if we stay healthy and catch some breaks but more then likely 7 wins

You don't think we improved from last season?

 

Better coaching staff, upgrade at QB, pretty talented defense. I think it would be a disappointment if we ended the season with 7 wins given our schedule.

Out multiple weeks? I thought he left practice the other day with back spasms and would return the next day? You mean to tell me he is out for awhile?

Yeah it was reported he was out the next 2 weeks. Should be good to go by the regular season though.

We could finish 7-10 and still be vastly improved. We had a last place schedule in 2022. We play Dallas, Miami and Seattle (instead of Giants, Detroit and Denver) in our 2nd place schedule this year. We were 4-2 in division and 3-8 out of division. If Atlanta and NO seem improved as well, going 3-3 or 4-2 could be playing way better than 2022.

These are not your Matt Rhule Panthers anymore.

 

We win the division last year if Steve Wilks coached all season. He had to clean up Rhule's garbage and still almost led us to the playoffs.

 

If we upgraded at HC and QB im expecting playoffs. That's just me though. Other people may feel differently.

Just curious, how many teams in the league has the depth to replace all of their star players without regressing? Only a handful in my estimation.

In the past decade the nfc south winner has won double digit games all but 2 times.   Last year and us in 2014.   There has never been a wild card team with single digit wins in 20 years.   So unless you truly think this team can win 11-12 games then I would not hold my breath on the playoffs.   I just hope to see progression and competency for this team and staff.  

 

In closing last year was a complete aberration and not anywhere close to the norm.  You are looking at things ass backwards

I don't know how many games we win. Im just expecting us to win this division. If we do that we're in the playoffs.

 

I would say 10 wins is realistic this year.
