i think the worst thing that could have happened to the panthers happened. it's one thing to have to rely on Carr for a game or two. it's another to lose your starter for the whole year. then the back up gets hurt.
the vinny thing is fine and it obviously worked out.
but this is scrambling by the front office like you'll never see. you simply can't plan on losing 2 qb's in back to back weeks. you can't plan on having a 43 year old calling plays for 10 more games, and supposedly in the post season.
my pessimism is based on what i've seen so far and looking ahead with the current qb situation.
i like what we've seen from the defense the past two games. problem is it hasn't been there all season, and you're left wondering will it show up this week or not? offensively, and this isn't a slam on VT, i just can't see a 43 year old lasting for hte remaining 10 games, and being the "savior" for this team. sure he could play, but win the division? get in the playoffs? just not there yet.
i see an 8-8 type year on our hands, and in the NFC, that still might be enough for a WC spot....
Yet we are still 4-2. Yes I know some rough wins, but come on give us some positive props. At least the other guys can in between their pessimism. I'm going to have to come beat you down and steal those colt tickets if you can't even look forward to cheering on your own team! For some reason I have a feeling you will be wearing a TN orange manning Jersey. :no:
