The Panthers now have the longest non-winning record streak in the league!

I like being under the radar...just missing the playoffs is always the sweetest feeling.

lol. With this type of stat you would think we would be on the footsteps of greatness due to consistently picking high in the draft and maximizing those picks to add a ton of talent to the roster. Our 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks from those years should be ready to emerge as stars.

2009: (no first round selection), Everette Brown, Sherrod Martin and Corvey Irvin

2010: (no first round selection), Jimmy Clausen, Brandon Lafell and Armanti Edwards

2011: Cam Newton, (no second round selection), Terrell McClain, and Sione Fua

To make things a little worse, here are players of the same position- or a need that were picked after our above mentioned studs:

2009: Connor Barwin (taken 4 picks after Everette Brown)...very good player for the Texans

2009: Sean Smith (taken 2 picks after Sherrod Martin)....solid starter in the dolphins secondary

2009: Henry Melton (taken 12 picks after Corvey Irvin)....solid starter on the Bears d-line

2010: Mike Iupati (taken at our spot in the 1st by San Fran)... solid starter on the 49ers o-line

2010: Jimmy Clausen (given our QB situation, i'm not going to knock this pick)

2010: Jimmy Graham or Navorro Bowman (taken 2 and 4 picks after Armanti)....damn

I won't do 2011 yet, because it is still too early, however the 65th pick in that draft (T. McClain) is already off the team, and the 98th pick (Brandon Hogan) is on season ending IR and has lost his position to a 5th round rookie and a 5-9" 7th round pick.

(hindsight is 20-20, blah blah blah)

Well since 2008 we've won more games than the rams lol...

Since 2006 as well...

This is all common knowledge yet every time I see it in writing it makes me want to puke. That is PATHETIC drafting for a team that claims to build through the draft. PATHETIC!

you can't trade away picks if you want to build thru the draft.

I live and die with this team from September to December. Sometimes (rarely) I get to during January and February as well. I buy my panthers gear, wear it to the sports bar, get into altercations (typically verbal but sometimes more) over them. It ruins my Sunday and Monday when they lose. My wife hates it and asks why I even watch because I always seem pissed off. But that rare moment when they win a game and I'm glowing, she loves it. I wish they out a better product on the field but like the other guy said, at the end of the day it is what it is. I couldn't switch teams if I wanted to. Something panthers related comes on and it gets my undivided attention. Other teams I'm meh about. These shitty times will hopefully make it that much better when (if) we get back to the Super Bowl and win one.

This is why I have to stop watching games for a while. Its become so detrimental to my personal life I can't keep doing it. I will never stop being a fan and when game time comes its going to be hard but its for the greater good.

i was going to suggest that.

If Marty doesn't have a contract like he said and he truely loves this team he should resign...

i think he just needs to find someone else to handle personnel decisions.

i'd prefer him hand it over to rivera, tbh.

We're not "Winning"?

Is this new news?

[NanuqoftheNorth]

Yea his cap management is OK

Can't believe anyone is still saying this. Hurney's cap management is horrible. He wastes money retaining players we don't use, that are injury prone, have a history of under performing or are past their prime.

The actual positions of need go without being addressed because there is no money left to spend after he is finished overpaying players on ill advised contracts.

[dodgersblowtoldyousobdick]

This has always been a losing franchise. What did you expect?

[NanuqoftheNorth]

Well since 2008 we've won more games than the rams lol...

Since 2006 as well...

A Panther point of pride no doubt.

It would look good flashing on the BoA large screens during this Sunday's game. I can see it now:

"Your Carolina Panthers... We've won more games than the St Louis Rams since 2006!!!!!!!!!"

That should really fire up all the PSL owners!

JR would be lucky if the fans didn't burn down the stadium after they saw that message.
