The losses have been; 1. because of bonehead plays 2. against teams with lossing records. 3, even with the best offensive player (Steve Smith) and the best defensive player(Julias Peppers)?

Carolina really need to do something. I think it is their staff, they need to get back to being the power run team we were. the offensive line need to be great. Jake need to stop making BAD THROWS. The defense is doing good. the offensive is not going well. They need to be better then that. Thats why I wish they would've pick up Mike Anderson in the off season to give them that power run.

I think their biggest problem offensively is that they overvalue Jake Delhomme. He's a talented guy, but his consistency is nowhere near what I'd expect given how good he looked in leading them to a Super Bowl appearance only a few years ago. He doesn't turn the ball over a great deal, but his decision-making doesn't seem to have matured.
The losses in their first two games can be attributed, at least to a great degree, to not having Steve Smith. And they also had the bad luck to play both the Cowboys and Bengals when those teams were coming off tough losses and ready to get back on the winning track. As for the Washington loss, those will happen once in a while, especially when you can't tackle a tight end, letting him turn a 20-yard gain into a 66-yard TD.
They've still got a good shot at the playoffs, and they're just as dangerous as any team in the NFC. If they get it rolling, I think you could see another run like last season.

No, right now to me, their problem is Jake Delhomme. He is not playing like Jake usually plays. He is throwing stupid passes and stuff. He needs to get his act together and calm down. Because I live in western North Carolina, I pull for the Panthers except when they play the Cowboys (my #1 team). I hate to see them fall apart like they are. They are a better team than that.

No the team just can't get it together for some reason...Coach Fox is an excellent coach...why is everyone so quick to aim at the coach when the team begins to fall apart...it's like Jim Haslett with the saints...he did all he could for them...but sure enough he got the axe...when all my boys tried too hard to be one man superstars...thankfully they're rolling now...but no, Coach Fox is not out there playing is he!

No. It's because of the inconsistent play of the QB.
