The future - unless you can score 50 points on Car: youre in trouble.

Just give this team an offseason

Just give Ron rivera the time he needs to build up his own defense.

Players on other teams are watching - free agents will line up for carolina.

Good to see the team get back to being alert. :)

[Jangler]

NO! WE NEED TO WIN NOW!

no time to lose.

[KillerKat]

Other than a RG and OT, Free Agency and the draft all need to focus on defense

[Fox007]

I don't disagree but what has Rivera shown you?

[propagandamachine]

Chicago Bears defense - First

San Diego Defense - First

The man is defense possessed you just give him time.

Watch.

Why? How often do players line up for losing teams?

[FugginPoo]

We would have probably a 12-16 ranked defense with Beason and Edwards plugging up run game.

It can't be forgotten, we have Practice squad guys being moved up now into starting lineup its so bad.

Losing Richard Marshall hurt some too, all those plays Pugh screws up could've had Munnerlin there instead.

If Davis and Beason were playing today we would have won. LBs are just getting exposed every game.

I think we will improve on defense for sure because Rivera has done it in the past, but McDermott IMO sucks.

As for Rivera as an overall coach, we'll just have to see.

Really no where to go but up right now. Its frustrating as hell.

LOL well yea because I could be playing LB right now, and you wouldn't notice a difference.

[Firefox]

Glad the OP said "future", because last week 4 points would have beat us.

:(

Dudes a rookie - hes lighting it up like a 4 yr veteran.. I LOVE IT

[Panthers128]

Yeah, 2 more turnovers and he'd have been lighting it up like good ole Jake.
