TMJ, Mingo and ISM can’t be dropping easy catches like that, even with the rain

[PanthersJDub]

This is the evaluation process... Not about winning. Please people chillax... And *KEEP POUNDING!*

[dominicelliott]

I like how calm he is clearly this game won’t about the scoreboard but about playing the right brand of football

[rickmilam]

Cue the ridiculous overreactions. Most of the players we saw weren't making the roster anyway. Calm down people

[charliexl]

Context: Patriots had 8 inactive players vs our 33 inactives. That was our 3rd string rotating with our 2nd string, vs their 2nd string rotating with their 1st. I hope that for Dave this was just a game to give cuts and practice squad players a chance to show what they got. We need some STARTERS too next game Dave! Dont let us lose EVERY preseason game like last year for the sake of roster development

My boy and I where at the game tonight. Defense looked good a times. Offense was terrible. Hope to see progress next week. Keep Pounding!

Dave it's okay it's your first time head coach it's not your fault

[webb]

First. please start jake luton next game or atleast play starters for first quarter

[o.d.kay]

The QB needs pocket presence. My man dropped back but wasn't stepping up in the pocket. Tough day for the tackles when that happens.

[Buddy]

For how many players we had inactive and how young our team and coaching staff are I think we played great and will have a decent season

[griffinregan]

crazy that for the most part out starting oline for last year was the starting oline for this game😭

[DuffyJ]

THE 228 DAY SCORING DROUGHT IS OVER! WHOO! #KeepPounding

[donnsimmons]

We are going to be OK! It's a process. Go Panthers!

[TylerLovato]

I took my grandma off the pap machine and she didn’t wake up for this game.

[charlesgoodwin-kx]

This is not even the real Panthers.
Why is everybody in panic mode?
We are going to have a decent season, and that is about it.
Nothing even to panic over.
I just want to see growth this year, and I think we will.

[kungfupurpz]

panthers fans in midseason form already

[anthonybrown]

Play the starters at least for a quarter

[Dr_Mike]

TMJ and Mingo are living up to their low expectations. Put one on the practice squad. Let the other go.

"It was just a great opportunity for me to be able to talk to the coaches, talk to the officials" 💀

[Dezlah]

i need my goat bryce young to see the field. Im crying that he didnt get out there and fight
