Is it still just preseason?

That was always a nonsensical take since the concern was on the failures of execution and the awful 'eye-test'. That doesn't lie.

I said during the preseason, I've never seen the starters AND the depth play as bad as they did in all the years I've watched preseason.

Frank will be fired before mid season. I don't see a win anytime soon.

 

Tepper would be stupid to keep him after he wasted 3 years on Rhule.

Nope.  Frank is getting a year 2.   Trading away those picks basically guaranteed it. 
 

Fitt will be sacrificed to the football gods.  It’s why I wanted Fitt fired with Rhule.  You always have an easy scapegoat when they aren’t.

This is dumb. Preseason is still just preseason. Anyone with realistic expectations, even before the preseason began, felt that it would probably be rough this season. A lot of you were simply delusional, or drank way too much of the Kool-Aid. 

Wut? We were a game away from the playoffs last year and came in with an improved roster, a talented rookie #1 overall pick and "coaching staff"

Not expecting improvement is Darin Gantt level looniness

Keep moving those goalposts bud

No one is moving any goalposts. Wholesale overhaul of a team with new schemes, a rookie QB, and new skill position players is a near-guaranteed recipe for some struggle. Last year became irrelevant as soon as they went a different direction with Wilks and even moreso once they went all-in on a rookie QB, trading away the best receiver in the process.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
