They Re-Named It SB50, Cause We Had To Take The L: Official 2016 Carolina Panthers Offseason Thread

[Morose Polymath]

#PantherPosse we had a fantastic season, but we didn't get the story book ending we were hoping for. Seems Like it just wasn't meant to be. I figured I'd give the squad a mourning period to deal with the loss before we reconvene with the Offseason Thread.

Despite the Super Bowl Collapse, we still managed to win the League MVP and Coach Of The Year. These could serve as great building blocks going into next year.

I could do an in-depth season re-cap and discuss off-season needs, but I'm going to let the Game Threads of this past season tell the story.

Ok...let's go ahead and start this off we got KB coming back do we sign another WR? Do we tag Norman ? Well letting Charles Johnson go? What position we drafting in the first round?

I feel like our secondary and OLine are our biggest weakness.

Heard we already released Crotchery and Harper.

Alshon Jeffery is a free agent, but I'm not sure if we can afford him.

If JNo is smart he'll stay with the squad, cause I could see him going to a different team with a different defensive set and get exposed. :camufdup:

Nah brehs. I already started your offseason thread here:

I think Gettlemen is gonna put the Franchise tag on JNo ASAP. Don't forgrt, we also get Bene back to help in the secondary and Tre should finally get the nod at SS with Roman Harper presumably gone. I still think we Should keep McClain, dude came in late and was solid other than a bad half vs Seatlle. I saw earlier that CJ gotta take a paycut or With or without him our front 7 should still be

Offensively, we should be skrong once again. Shula has to figure out a way to incorporate CAP in the offense and we gotta try to solidify our OLine. If KB is healthy, we should be pretty unstoppable imo. KB, Funchise, and Philly should be our starters with Ginn coming in to stretch the field when needed. I think Killa will have another beastly season and we should be bike in the 'Offs

It was a sad and disappointing end to a magically season, but i'm still proud of these guys for what they achieved in a year where nobody gave them a chance. All the hate and backlash that they are receiving will only fuel them to their goal even more. I see a bright future for this team and i'm excited to see the outcome.

 

[No Sleep]

T.L.O.P got my mind off the SB50... L!!!
I'm trying to keep my faith but I'm looking for more in 16-17...

Time to get back at it. We need some OL picks early and late in the draft. If a good CB or S fall into our hands early we need to jump on that.

:KillaSmile::UncleLuke:

:camsalute6: for being consistent with your Killa stanning @AVXL

 

[Carolina Slim]

Denver exposed our makeshift O-line... Oher and Remmers need to be upgraded ASAP. Gettleman believes in building from the inside out, like the Giants did, so I fully expect him to address the offensive line issues this offseason.

 

[No Sleep]

Brehs, I maybe still on that SB hangover, but I want Oher and Remmers gone.

 

[Henry Orbit]

Need to look for more depth at O-Line, I think Daryl Williams ready to take over for Mike Remmers at RT

Most likely will go BPA with the first round pick

I would like to see an upgrade at the other TE position, not a big fan of Ed dikkson
